I'm dealing with a flare up of my arthritis in my arms, which has limited my posting lately.

That means I've had more time to watch TV.

I just watched the first episode of the new TLC series 'Sara Palin's Alaska'. It was enjoyable both as an interesting & educational show & having Sarah intersperse honestly on political issues.

I think CBS' 'CSI' jumped the shark last Thursday with their revisionist take in fracking & Eeeeevil, greedy oil companies. It made me wonder if Michael Moore wrote the script.

This week's Castle gave a hat tip to Obama's deficit spending by reciting thoroughly discredited Keynesian economic theory about deficit spending in a downturn as a genuine solution to the problem.

If CSI pulls crap like that again I'm doesn’t watching it. Castle has been slowly losing my interest anyway, so another little propaganda segment will end my viewing here too.

As usual, I noted many other instances of LWE core beliefs being sprinkled in TV & movies. It seems that they got the word out successfully to tone it down & make a lot less shark jumping preachy shows [like the CSI show] & a lot more quickies [more like Castle].

IMO, their new approach is more concerning because most of it will fly under the radar &/or be overlooked. That's because it's blended in seamlessly or the propaganda ends soon after it starts. I believe this new propaganda style will slowly seep into the consciousness of more people through repetition.

Hope to be up & running stronger soon.
