Finally
Posted in Ideology and politics on 07/02/2007 09:44 pm by MayaBI’m one of many who are really upset about how media, who are responsible for creating our “view of the world”, often underestimate our abilities as independent thinking individuals. I mean what is this with putting Paris-shmaris as a head news story? Finally somebody took action and showed her viewers some respect, and of course it had to be a woman.
Jeg er en av mange som er opprørt over hvordan større medieaktører, som tross alt er med på å skape vår oppfatning av verdensbildet, undervurderer våre evner som tenkende individ. Jeg mener, hva i alle dager har Paris-Shmaris å gjøre i nyhetsbildet i det hele tatt? Og enda verre, hvordan havnet hun som første sak foran en sak om situasjonen i Irak? Heldigvis er det noen som setter et eksempel til etterfølgelse og viser sine seere den respekten de fortjener, og selvfølgelig måtte dette komme fra en kvinne…

Bra Maya.
Du sier noe som jeg er ganske sikker på at svært mange tenker.

hey darlin’! i finally got around to posting pictures of the military sweater this morning, at your request!
also, as i posted in the blog, as soon as the yarn arrives i’ll be making a whole batch of ‘get real’, one of the colourways you wanted, and i’ve reserved a skein for you. i’ll ship it seperately from the others, since it’s going to be finished much sooner… don’t worry, i’m not charging you for shipping!

Thank you for providing this clip. I applaud the efforts she made to stick to the news, AND the efforts it took for her not to slap the adolescents in the news room with her.

I know I’m a bit late, but thanks for posting that video clip. It’s nice to know that some journalists (if you can call most of them that) feel the same way. It’s sad how her co-hosts treated her on air about it though.
