Too beautiful this Saturday morning to get all lathered up. But...

F the AP. Yahoo too.
This blaring headline made Yahoo's top 5 news items yesterday:

Palin resignation costs Alaska at least $40,000

Now that's some fucking news, eh.
Alaska spent $40K to do stuff like: swear in the new guy, move Palin's family out of the guv digs, etc.

Yup, that's it. Front page news.
I get the whole media bias thing. I get it.
But the new level, a new low, that has been directed at Sarah Palin... that I don't get.

QOTD
"The price tag for moving Palin — the former GOP vice presidential candidate — and her family from the governor's mansion in Juneau amounted to roughly $3,328"
- F the AP
That's some hard-hitting shit there AP/Yahoo. Good for you.

Also.
Or should I say, even worse...

The AP just ran a photo of one of our guys dying in Afghanistan... like taking his last breath or something. The photo was published against the expressed wishes of the poor parents of the young guy who was killed. Of course, it was highlighted in the (POS) Huffington Post and (brace yourself) NPR.

The family asked them not to publish the photo, and they did. Can you imagine telling the family of a fallen soldier to piss off? How cold and callous a human being do you have to be? How out of touch? You have hundred, nay thousands, of photos, and the story of the war cannot be told without running this photo! That's just a lie. Or delusion.

I dislike politicians. But hey, that's their job.
The HufPo. Piece of crap by design. No pretense of being impartial or even rational.

But journalism. Journalism is the lowest of all professions. They pretend to be something (impartial) that they're not. Journalists could be providing an important service these days, but they don't.
f the ap... yow, bill

PS - Jeez, Sarah Palin is hot.
