Reflections From a Murky Pond

When what passes for this Administration finally got around to making a statement about the murder of former Japanese Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe, It was selfish, vile, and nothing but Biden’s moronic profiteering off of the murder in an attempt to bolster Democrats in the upcoming elections.

I am stunned, outraged, and deeply saddened by the news that my friend Abe Shinzo, former Prime Minister of Japan, was shot and killed while campaigning. This is a tragedy for Japan and for all who knew him. I had the privilege to work closely with Prime Minister Abe. As Vice President, I visited him in Tokyo and welcomed him to Washington. He was a champion of the Alliance between our nations and the friendship between our people. The longest serving Japanese Prime Minister, his vision of a free and open Indo-Pacific will endure. Above all, he cared deeply about the Japanese people and dedicated his life to their service. Even at the moment he was attacked, he was engaged in the work of democracy. While there are many details that we do not yet know, we know that violent attacks are never acceptable and that gun violence always leaves a deep scar on the communities that are affected by it. The United States stands with Japan in this moment of grief. I send my deepest condolences to his family.

— Joe “Brandon” Biden

OK, to be fair, there’s a vanishingly small chance that Biden was involved in the crafting of this statement, much less having written it. It was cogent, rational, and in complete sentences. One does, however, have to hope he reviewed it and approved of it before it was use.

But, really!?! A, from all accounts, pretty great man and statesman just got assassinated and you’re going to instantly spin it into “gun violence” and a reflection of the Democrats’ domestic issue with an armed populace? That is just callous profiteering and moronically so to boot.

All I can personally say and all I think should have been said, is Kono tabi wa goshuushousama de gozaimasu. Sazo ochikara-otoshi no koto to zonjimasu.

Yeah, I pretty much called it, not that it was in any way difficult to predict this series of events. With the Blacks’ race riots having “flamed out” due to the public having grown bored with hearing about them, the Lamestream Media is right back at reporting about “upsurges” in new Coronavirus cases.

Leave No Crisis Unchurned

Honestly though, it’s even all do to the Lamestream Media’s utter hatred of President Trump and their slavish devotion to the Democrat party. That just means that there’s no “downside” to the behavior. Nor is it primarily due to their narcissism, hubris, and gloating over their control of public knowledge and sentiment. Again, that just means that there’s no “downside” to the behavior.

The Lamestream Media has us lurching from crisis to crisis, with no resolution mentioned for any of them, because they need to do so. They literally feed off crises; they need them and to churn them to survive.

News – especially America’s primary vector for it, television – stopped being a cost center and became not only a profit-and-loss center but a cash cow for stations and networks by the beginning of the 1970s. This naturally degenerated into the ultimate rejection of the values of the “Golden Age of Cronkite, Huntley and Brinkley,” cable news networks.

NOTE: Fox Television Stations, LLC – 32 local stations – makes close $1,000,000,000 a year from news broadcasts. Yes, close to 1 billion USD per year off of local news.

So, being both profit-and-loss center and a cash cow forces the media to get ratings so that they can sell commercial ad spots. And that’s what they have to do. Understand. the actual business of television stations isn’t producing or airing content, it’s selling commercial ad spots for as much money as their market will bear.

Of course, they flock to whatever the public sentiment is at that time and, of course, the try to gin up as much “attention” as they can whenever there’s a crisis to be used. It’s the way – the only way – that they can stay in business.

So, just keep that in mind whenever your listening to the news. Remember that their ratings determine what they can sell commercial ad spots for and that this is how those stations stay in business and how those reporters keep their jobs – which are getting ratings, not reporting the news.

Be ready and watching for the upcoming upsurge in COVID-19 cases as reported by the Lamestream Media and capitalized upon by certain, mostly Democrat, politicians. It will happen soon!

Once the Blacks grow bored with this circus of rioting, looting, and generalized violence and hatred, the media is quickly – nigh instantly – going to start blasting us all with fear-based screeds about coronavirus and how it’s back and killing people like never before.

Remember, the Lamestream media and those that they pander to need fear, uncertainty, doubt, and hate to survive. Hence, Americans need to be ready and watching for the upcoming upsurge in COVID-19 cases.
