CNN = sketchy?

Chez over at Deus Ex Malcontent links to a New York Times article which reveals that one of CNN’s contributors, who happens to be against health care reform, is, in fact, in the pocket of the private health insurance industry. Disgusting. Having a conflict of interest is one level of unethical, but failing to disclose said conflict takes it to a whole other level.

Read a little bit of this as well, and it’s just spectacular. Makes me wish I would encounter a little bit of the fortune this man has received.

Ask me anything: I won a $30 million lottery jackpot and have spent the last 5 years traveling the world.

Shamelessly yoinked from Daring Fireball:

Bob Sheppard is 98 years old and has been the P.A. announcer at Yankee Stadium since 1951:

He did his first Yankees game on April 17, 1951, announcing a lineup that included Phil Rizzuto, Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio and Yogi Berra.

So I spotted this a few days ago, just now getting around to linking to it, it’s FlowingData’s animated map of the growth of Walmart across America. Really quite disturbing, honestly. Say goodbye mom & pop!

Amber spotted this on the internets, and, it being one of my favorite songs, especially to play, I just had to reblog it.

Reblog: Jon Stewart on Sara Palin

“She said that small towns, that’s the part of the country she really likes going to because that’s the pro-America part of the country. You know, I just want to say to her, just very quickly: fuck you.”

Jon Stewart, referring to Sarah Palin while speaking in Boston last Friday
