The Gauntlet is thrown

Here, we, go...Have you ever heard the story of the brave knight who looked over his land, and was appaled at what he saw, so he went to the King and had a bit of a bitch-fest. The results of said fest where, the King made a decree to his Lords that that they should setup a special group to combat the evil in the land. The Lords were displeased at the prospect of having to do their jobs, so they punished the Knight by forcing him into the special group, suddenly the Knight wished he haddened opened his big fat mouth. So he, a lesbian, a couple of black guys, a couple of white guys and a retard set force into the realm of Baltimore and setup wire taps on pay phones. Ofcourse I refer to the Wire, the tv show, the...no thats it. I coud talk about the wire, as it appears I am, but like any good story, a springboard was required. The real subject here is in fact the phone hacking scandal. The News of the World (come on...news? I dont think so) has been hacking the phones of celebrities and politicians and who cares! My point here is that professional journalists needed to listen to the private messages of public individuals just to make stories. How is it possible that people employed to write and enlighten the world, are so incapable of using their imagination and own opinion to write an article? I can, im sure you can, and we do it for free, in our spare time, so why exactly are journalist becoming more and more incapable of writing instead or reporting! Sure, Sienna Miller is really rather hot, but why the hell would i want to read news thats been made up , based on her phone messages 'hi sienna, its mum, i got some fish finger in for the kids, you want any?

Wire tapping criminals or wire tapping celebrities? You put it like that and suddenly you realise that in fact that breaching of laws by a newspaper, a big cover up, lots of pay-offs, and plain old corruption shows us just how our tabloids work. They work by intruding into the lives of inncocent people and picking through every little bit of their exhistance, what im saying here is whats the differece between a criminal and a celebrity? Obvious isnt it? Criminals get a fair trial. Now suddenly it appears i may have just suggested that celebrities have a hard life. Whilst I could now hit on celebrities and celeb culture, I remember this is a war. and there are always 2 sides to a battle!

Rebuff that!
