....As for truth and noble causes, whoa: journalism is a business like any other, owned by the very wealthy who want to influence national and world affairs to their liking.... You know, I always thought of the russians as journalists. No wonder bo has been able to confide in them, after his last election. No leaky mail there, right from his mouth to put'ins messenger lackey.

Looks like President Obama and Hanoi John Kerry have signed the UN gun control treaty and submitted it to the Senate. No chance of ratification, but what's up with that?...Geo Geo, that's exceptional. We should just ask him, but 'responsible journalism' must help create the illusion of a legacy. I'm pretty sure by this afternoon, he'll be the toughest prez. on the russians since WWII. This is the last desperate effort of a failed president to be able to say he instituted "gun control". As I pointed out in my opening post to this thread Obama freely admits failure in reaching that goal. The senate won't ratify this of course and President Trump will probably rescind our signature to the U N bill but that doesn't matter to the most worthless person to ever occupy the White House. Jim

Investigated a little. Once a duly signed treaty has been submitted to the Senate it becomes enforceable until voted on or removed by a president. Maybe look for some final executive orders creating new laws/regulations under the force of the treaty...Geo

H.L Mencken was an elitist, racist journalist who saw no worth in people of colour and Jews. Like so much of a complicated world, he was also a great American journalist, writer, satirist who made this prophesy in the Baltimore Sun in 1920:
"As democracy is perfected, the office of the president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and complete narcissistic moron."
For Mencken, he or she could only be white

Really King? Who is the very wealthy guy who owns the CBC and commands his journalists to bail on accurate reporting in favour of eyeball catching half truths and misinformation?
The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia

I said for Mencken, not the American people, craig. Americans declared for a seriously flawed woman over the other, in the same way they twice preferred a man of colour over the other nominee.
