    What I Want

    If the corporate plutocracy sends their police goons after me in pursuit of financial restitution regarding illegal usage of their media, I don’t want to go quietly. My few dollars could disappear into a metaphoric mattress, I’d like to live quietly until they come. I’d turn the repo men away with a few threatening words and a shotgun.

    I want to wait in whatever home I have until they come to take me away for unpaid fines. I want to tell them to leave the premises. I want to go about my daily business in the face of their regressive orders. I want to dare them to beat the hell out of me. I want to call them corporate thugs to their faces.

    I want to do all these things, but I’m not a brave man. My life is precious to me and imprisonment is a hilarious concept. Throw me in a big cement building with a bunch of books and fascists? I could think of worse places to spread black words.

    Remember, my friends, they can beat you, they can impoverish you, they can kill you, but they can’t kill an idea! This is our land, where we take our stand! Stop SOPA now!

    Paul Krugman's September 11th Blog Posting

    Krugman is under fire by conservative media for calling out faux heroes of the attack, Bernie Kerik, Rudy Giuliani, and G.W. Bush, for using the tragedy as the impetus for their own goals and turning a unifying event into something divisive.

    usnews: More Americans Get Their News From the Internet: The gap between television as the number one source and the Internet is shrinking The percentage of Americans who say they get most of their national and international news from the Web has increased 17 points since 2007, and the gap between TV viewers and mouse clickers is even more narrow for people ages 18-49. Women in this age bracket prefer TV news to the Internet 62 to 52, while men 18-49 actually prefer surfing the Web for updates over TV news, 56 to 55 percent. (Chart via Pew Research)

    “I don’t believe you. The liberal media would’ve told me about this.”

    “There’s no such thing. The New York Times is owned by NYT incorporated, which is owned by Altheon Ballistic Dynamics, which is owned by the Murdock family, who are owned…by Halliburton.”

    zomBcon - back to the grind

    I rolled over to Seattle around 2 o’clock today and went to zomBcon. We’re one of two media groups covering the event, but we’re not really competing. In fact, we’re talking about sharing footage and stills with Fangoria. Well anyways, we didn’t do much today, it was more of a location scouting day, that is until about 7 o’clock this evening.

    At 7, we were directed to a nearby hotel where George A. Romero and Malcolm McDowell were staying. Romero gave an interview with Fangoria magazine, of which I took stills and video. Romero and McDowell are doing panels and more interviews tomorrow, along with Ted Remy (Same Remy’s brother) and Bruce Campbell. I’m going to need some good sleep tonight. I won’t be posting at least until monday; have a good Halloween weekend kidlets!

    The more you can increase fear of drugs and crime, welfare mothers, immigrants and aliens, the more you control all the people.
