It's kind of the strategy lawyers are taught. Rarely do you see someone step outside the mold of what they were taught, and go out on their own and do what is right, in spite of how colleges teach.<br /><br />Colleges/universities are mainly Liberal in their thinking, teaching, activism, and in the direction they push their students.<br /><br />What's admirable to me is someone who can stand up for integrity and refuse to carry on what they were taught into their careers. That is, they are able to separate right from wrong, and do what is right.<br /><br />Currently, newspapers and anchors have no guts. If they did, someone would break out of their puppet shell and challenge the stories about Obama's eligibility. Not necessarily to say he's not eligible, but rather, to challenge the stories and to pursue an end to the lawsuits. If he's eligible, he would just turn over the documents and end the rumors. <br /><br />A reporter that had guts would go after the story to find out why he just doesn't end the rumors by turning over the document. Why force Americans into an expensive legal battle?<br /><br />They're cowards. That's why. They never got past their college education in journalism.Shark Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09148235602133742425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-88868875201038074392009-05-17T09:32:00.000-07:002009-05-17T09:32:00.000-07:00All these anonymous nicks makes it hard to answer ...All these anonymous nicks makes it hard to answer because it's not worth typing out the words you say just to identify which anonymous one you are.

Journalists learn this go along-get along attitude when they're at college. Most of them have access to the back slapping and palm greasing that takes place at their colleges and universities, but they rarely report any of it. <br /><br />The student newspapers at one of the most prominent journalism schools in the country has access to the same financial reporting system that all parts of the university use. However, they never track any of the information despite being given routine leads on the misuse of taxpayer and student money. Why? Because all of the institutional advertising dollars they rely on would quickly go away (as would their jobs and the newspaper). <br /><br />Journalists can tell us of all of the terrible things that are going to happen once they go away. Perhaps if they still had some shred of credibility left, people would listen to them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-4802942047645442242009-05-17T07:52:00.000-07:002009-05-17T07:52:00.000-07:00So Shark Girl, if you're so good, got "wealthy" of...So Shark Girl, if you're so good, got "wealthy" off a story and fight the "man" why no facts?

I don't own a news corporation and I'm not calling myself a reporter.<br /><br />What I do is blog. I don't hold a law degree, nor do I work for a news agency.<br /><br />I'm a civilian that got sick of the corruption and I fought back. I've been offered bribes to quit. I've been offered enough bribes to make me a wealthy woman.<br /><br />You see, that's how the government and their pet corporations work.<br /><br />You just have to make a determination in your own heart whom you're going to serve.<br /><br />As for me and my household, we shall serve the Lord.<br /><br />I fear Him and accepting a bribe is not an option. <br /><br />As for the news agencies, I feel sorry for the reporters that traded their integrity for a story, a byline or a paycheck. It's not worth it.<br /><br />I hope some day they will change their ways and report the truth.<br /><br />For example, the Left-Wing news media went after McCain to get his documents; yet, hide the story about Obama not turning over his documents.<br /><br />A reporter who stood for the truth would have the guts to go after Obama. However, it just brings us back to my starting point. They only report the news they are told to report.<br /><br />And me? I'll report the news that the newspaper reporters and CBS didn't have the guts to report. In fact, a CBS reporter called me on my cell phone claiming she wanted my story. I told her I knew she was calling on behalf of the defendants.<br /><br />She pretended to care about what was happening to me. I gave her the story, but she failed to report it. She now works for the defendants. Another reporter who didn't have backbone and could only see her career and resorted to lies instead.<br /><br />I'm not afraid to lose my career in order to maintain integrity. I was given an option. Be corrupt or be blackballed from government contracting. I refused the bribes. Just as they promised, they got rid of me.<br /><br />I would do it again and again. Not everyone can be bought. <br /><br />Are you a reporter? If so, let me ask you something, and since you are here anonymous, you have nothing to lose by telling the truth.<br /><br />You're given a story to write. You're offered $50,000 to slant the story towards Corporation A, and if you do it, you'll also get a handsome reward for the follow on contract that is worth $40 million. However, by reporting the story the way they tell you to, you're going to cost an innocent corporation their contracts.<br /><br />Contractor B doesn't have any bribe money to offer you. All you get is a story that told the truth.<br /><br />How would you report the story? Do you slant it for Corporation A and get your financial reward, or do you tell the truth for Corporation B and all you get is a story and your integrity?<br /><br />I won't carry on another conversation with you until you answer the scenario, because without knowing where you stand with integrity issues, I will be wasting my time trying to explain why I want the newspapers to go down with the corporations.Shark Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09148235602133742425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-80563970771926300032009-05-16T22:45:00.000-07:002009-05-16T22:45:00.000-07:00Shark Girl for President!Shark Girl for President!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-70956834738150003312009-05-16T22:39:00.000-07:002009-05-16T22:39:00.000-07:00Anonymous @ 4:57...the last thing I'll be saying i...Anonymous @ 4:57...the last thing I'll be saying is "I didn't see this coming."<br /><br />Apparently, you haven't seen my blog. I have several cases going, as a pro se litigant, up against 14 lawyers, including the USDOJ. There isn't anything that can be thrown at me that I will say I didn't see coming. I know how the government works.<br /><br />I also know how the media works. They don't want to report truth. In my situation, it's about BRAC. If you don't know what that is, Google it, or just continue being your ignorant self and lashing out at people because you can't carry on an intelligent conversation.<br /><br />News reporters are cowards. They can only report what they're told to report. They don't have the guts to go out on a limb by themselves. They'll do what they're told so they can collect a pay check and get their name on a byline. It takes some one with guts to tell the truth and challenge stories.<br /><br />I challenged the reporters and I won. I found out who their shareholders are and they had to shut their mouths because they know I'm right. They refused to report the news about corruption because it was THEIR shareholder involved in the corruption. They would have to tell on themselves. So they chose to tell lies in order to protect their shareholders.<br /><br />I'm not hiding behind an anonymous nick like you are. And I won't back down or leave this blog either. There is nothing you can throw at me that the government hasn't already done to me.<br /><br />What are you, a reporter? You must be if you're so concerned about what I say about newspapers going down.<br /><br />I'll say it to you again...I hope the newspapers fail unless they get some guts and report the truth. <br /><br />I would rather lose an advertiser than to compromise truth. Not to mention, I haven't bought a newspaper in years. By the time it hits the stands, it's old news.<br /><br />Reporters are also old news. They need to go down with the mismanaged corporations.Shark Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09148235602133742425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-91069131334914078502009-05-16T22:29:00.000-07:002009-05-16T22:29:00.000-07:00most of you people are friggin idiots...oh sorry.....most of you people are friggin idiots...oh sorry...let me clarify that...misinformed idiots.<br /><br />Ok....so I was not completely clear...sue me...I am a troll.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-80093971556037828382009-05-16T22:25:00.000-07:002009-05-16T22:25:00.000-07:00....misinformed idiots.
