But really old people are not reading my blog they find my crass language and condescending tone to be way to nice compared to how their home health care workers treat them. Seriously though old people a message from me to you save us some Social Security you greedy fucks.
Okay so the movie for today is an oldie but goodie, all of you film majors have seen it, but since you are unemployed now you have time to watch it again. Network was made in 1976, but it could very easily be a look inside of today’s corporate driven media conglomerates more interested in revenue and ratings then delivering unbiased news. The whole concept of agenda driven journalism is as old as the printing press and I am pretty sure there are historians who would argue that cave drawings had a secret agenda back in the day.
Network pants the whole system though. Just exposes the media for the small dicked over compensating bunch of whores they are. You don’t want to believe that this could be real, watch Network and then watch an hour of Fox News and you tell me. The movie itself is excellent, well acted funny, touching, and thoughtful. Network won a bunch of Oscars for good reason it was fucking good and it is on Netflix Streaming. I know that a movie from 1976 will test your ability to cope with today’s mindless dribble, watch it anyway, don’t suck.
