PBS edits Tina Fey's remarks from Twain event

Tina Fey edited by PBSTina Fey got a little political airbrushing from PBS Sunday night during its annual broadcast of the Kennedy Center's Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.

Fey, this year's recipient of the prize, caused a few ripples during her acceptance speech at the ceremony on Tuesday when she mock-praised "conservative women" like Sarah Palin, whom Fey has so memorably impersonated on "Saturday Night Live."

A FEAR MONGER AND A WAR MONGER

Warmongering requires more, and Murdoch knows it.  He aims to silence liberals who he claims are responsible for “the most virulent anti-Semitism” today.

“Often,” he augurs, “this new anti-Semitism dresses itself up as legitimate disagreement with Israel.”

Anyone, right, left or centre who dares to criticise Israel will be branded anti-Semitic.

Cable Companies' $46+ Billion Robbery -- Subscribers Have Been Ripped off for $5 a Month Since 2000

Cable companies ripping off customersThe cable companies are diverting money that is intended to improve infrastructure into a black hole, creating a perpetual cash machine for greedy execs. When cable television subscribers open their monthly bills they will not see a charge for the “Social Contract.”

Since the mid-1990s, it appears that every cable subscriber has shelled out $1 per month increasing to $5 a month by 2000 to subsidize cable companies’ system upgrades. There has been no accounting for the total monies raised through this subsidy nor a thorough assessment of whether the cable operators fulfilled the system upgrades (including wiring and services to public institutions) the subsidy is suppose to underwrite.

Wikileaks Info Cherry Picked by Corporate Media to Bolster Case Against Iran

NY TimesA source provides details to the American government about the nefarious activities of a Middle Eastern country. That information ends up in scores of secret U.S. government documents. Subsequently, the information winds up on the front pages of major newspapers, and is heralded by war hawks in Washington as a casus belli.

Sound familiar? It should, but perhaps not in the way you’re thinking. Here’s a hint: It’s not 2003, but 2010. This is the story of what happened recently to Iran in the wake of the latest WikiLeaks document release, where U.S military field reports from Iraq made their way into major national newspapers and painted the Islamic Republic as a force out to murder U.S. soldiers in Iraq.

The Final Insult to Arianna Huffington's Failed Journalism Experiment

The Huffington Post Investigative Fund, Arianna Huffington's failed attempt at nonprofit journalism, was taken over by the Center for Public Integrity. Now the Center for Public Integrity has been taken over by a right-wing hack. Ha-ha!

The Huffington Post Investigative Fund couldn't make it on its own, so it merged with the older and more established Center for Public Integrity last month, which was basically an acknowledgment that Huffington's grand plans and ambitions to "save" journalism amounted to little more than a way to get free copy for her for-profit web site.

Independent News Site Fraudulently Blacklisted by Internet Explorer After Negative Bill Gates Article

The Website Grade for www.activistpost.com!
What's interesting about the timing of this possible censorship is that it comes on a day when we posted an article that reflects negatively on Bill Gates.  It appears that his empire carries out vendettas by deterring access to websites not favorable to their overlord.  We did receive a complaint through our contact form from a reader listing the e-mail address: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
