    media will need government help: US congressman





    "as we look at these various solutions,

    government's going to have to be involved in one way or the other," he warned.


    "Eventually,

    government is going to have to be responsible to help resolve these issues and our whole society depends very much

    on reaching some resolution of the problem."

    No matter how you look at it,

    government involvement in the free press is scary. There's no way we can trust in the government not to try to

    change what is said once they get their fingers in there. At the same time, can news survive as it is?



    Personally, I believe we are seeing no more than a transition. News on the web is not free. Advertisers pay for

    that space and it is a huge market. Overhead costs are lower and circulation is far more extensive. In the end, the

    printed news may fall but the free press is always going to be better off without the government involvement.
    To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

    Is that where that phrase came from? I love it. Simultaneously cute and fear inspiring.

    Kind of like Doofenshmirtz Evil, Inc.

    "4chan"? I he related to Jackie?

    Bad language translation is always

    fun.

    Like the assembly manual that used the word "fuck" instead of "screw."

    The absolutely uprorious copy of

    a Harry Potter DVD I got from China...

    Let's not get in to Pedobear... (another internet phenomena)

    And

    darn it, I just lost the game. Well, try again...
