About Politics, Re-Spun
What is Politics, Re-Spun?
Journalistic objectivity is a myth. “Fair and Balanced” is a lie. The “No Spin Zone” is the All Spin Zone.
Corporate-concentrated media is bad for democracy and good for keeping people afraid, disempowered, immobilized, isolated and consumers rather than citizens.
So it is important to de-spin the political and re-spin it for social, economic and political justice.
More reflections are worth your time here.
I use WordPress as a web platform because open source is powerful, competent, free of global corporate manipulation and some of the best of the altruism of the internet that I’ve seen since learning how to send off-site email in 1986.
I am a husband, father, former suburban Vancouver high school English and Social Studies teacher who changed careers because Gordon Campbell has been working hard to ruin public education. I have various English and Political Science degrees and I’ve been writing political, social and economic editorials regularly since April 2004.
