Quote of the day–Bill Whittle

I do, however, blame the press for allowing an individual citizen to do the work that they employ standing armies of so-called professionals for. I know they are capable of this kind of investigative journalism: it only took them a day or two to damage Sarah Palin with wild accusations about her baby’s paternity and less time than that to destroy a man who happened to be playing ball when the Messiah decided to roll up looking for a few more votes on the way to the inevitable coronation.


We no longer have an independent, fair, investigative press. That is abundantly clear to everyone – even the press. It is just another of the facts that they refuse to report, because it does not suit them.


Remember this, America: the press did not break this story. A single citizen, on the internet did.


There is a special hell for you “journalists” out there, a hell made specifically for you narcissists and elitists who think you have the right to determine which information is passed on to the electorate and which is not.


That hell – your own personal hell – is a fiery lake of Irrelevance, blinding clouds of Obscurity, and burning, everlasting Scorn.


You’ve earned it.

  1. Excellent quote. Whittle is always good.

    But wait a second; “We no longer have an independent, fair, investigative press.”

    When was there ever an independent, fair, investigative press? And on what planet? You know, it’d be equally amazing to learn of both an independent, fair, investigative press, and life on another planet.
