Iam not a sensative bitch like you,you got beef with me come say it to my face by all means,and btw I dont insult people,if they do something to me or disrespect me I will fight back by all means.
Now if you wanna continue fighting back about everything I say here,then be it,remember you CANT SHUT ME UP.There is no winner when it comes to internet.
I just gave u a chance to finish all the stupid fighting,and you refused.ok then have a nice day. :mad: |
You've obviously never met a guy from Jersey. I'll fight you, don't doubt it.
Now, tell me, how did you come to the conclusion that am a "sensative bitch"? Obviously your problem is that you can bring the heat, but for someone to do the same to you is out of your league. Your problem is that you expect to have everything your way. The truth is that you can't have everything your way. So, when I started to become agressive, you automatcially backed off, not having expected such a rash reaction. Don't bother telling me I'm wrong, because I know I'm right. Actually, to predict what would happen, you WILL respond to this post, and once again you will tell me something along the lines of I'm a sensative bitch and I'm not perfect and you gave me the chance to close out the subject. I'm not looking to shut you up. I know that that objective is impossible and any attempt to shut you up is ultimately futile. I also believe that bickering over the internet is a rather childish deed. What I'm trying to do is show you the error of your ways in a grown-up manner..CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM!! I would gladly read any criticisms you have of me, as long as they are not beligerent and they would help me in some way. Like I said, I believe in progress. |

SHLOMI SHELLING
On Sunday, Hezbullah terrorists fired shells on the northern Israeli town of Shlomi, killing 16-year old Haviv Dadon and wounding several other Israeli civilians. In response, the Israeli Air Force targeted Hezbullah launching pads on the southern Lebanese border.
Since these two events occurred just hours apart, most news outlets issued one report to cover both. The question: Whose actions made the headlines?
This is a classic example of media bias that HonestReporting has been addressing for years: Despite the fact that Israel was responding to a deadly provocation that violated international law, headlines portray Israel as the aggressor. For example:
MSNBC: "Israel bombs Hizballah in Lebanon"
Reuters: "Israeli Warplanes Raid South Lebanon"
The Age (Australia): "Israeli planes strike Lebanon"
Associated Press: "Israeli Warplanes Blast Hezbollah Areas"
[An earlier AP headline seemed to confer statehood on the Hezbollah terror group: "Shelling in Hezbollah Kills 1, Hurts 4" ]
By withholding the report of Hezbullah's deadly terror attack until the body of the articles, these media outlets falsely suggest that Israel initiated the violent exchange.
By comparison, here's a balanced headline from the Casper (Wyoming) Star-Tribune: "Israeli boy killed in Hezbollah shelling; Israel responds by attacking targets in Lebanon."
We encourage you to monitor your local paper. Did its headline focus exclusively on the Israeli response? If so, write to your local editor, emphasizing the following points:
1) Why was the Israeli strike deemed more significant, justifying a headline, while Hezbollah's deadly terror provocation against civilians was relegated to the body of the article?
2) Why did the headline deviate from chronological order by naming the Israeli strike before the terror attack that precipitated it?
3) Given the fact that many readers see only headlines, doesn't this headline misrepresent the day's full events in the region? |

I misspelled a terror organizations dirty name; you rolled your eyes. Pathetic! I'm not even going to continue with the rest of what I'd like to say, for the sake of this discussion. :rolleyes:
Instead of giving some bull remark, why don't you shed some light onto your position of the mass media slanting a story to fit their own political agenda? These people supply news to thousands of media outlets with this propaganda; you just sit there and eat it up with the rest of them.
Perhaps this time you could fill up your post with a little more insight. |

I'm going to stick my journalist nose in here. Accuracy is essential to reporting. This thread is titled "honest reporting" so start with correct spellings. I've really only read the last page of the thread so I'm sure it has mutated from it's original topic.
I saw three different spellings in your original post quoting (I think) a story titled "Shlomi Shelling." Which is correct? I'm horrified that the AP and MSNBC can't even get spellings right. In all of my journalism classes, a factual inaccuracy (misspelled name, incorrect date, etc.) automatically fails your for the assignment even if it's a midterm or final and there's a good reason for it: accuracy.
Many news articles seem dishonest or skewed simply because a reporter has not checked for accuracy. Accurate spelling is just one step toward a thorough and unbiased story.
This is something of a personal rant because misspellings are like nails on a chalkboard to me. |
