A handful of companies control a vast majority of the media. News anchors and high paid pundits socialize with the people they're supposed to be reporting on. Do you think MSNBC is going to be objective in their reporting on topics that directly affect the many company's they control including defense contractors....

Let's see. What character was Mike Myers most famous for? That's right, Austin Powers. What was Austin Powers' main catch phrase? That's right, "Yeah, baby."

So, Mike Myers is having a baby. What catchy opening line might several news segment writers use? Wow, I have no idea.

:lol:
