To follow up on the
posting from yesterday on the media's attempt to keep us all in a constant mode of fear and hysteria - most recently on the supposed swine flu pandemic - we now hear from the World Health Organization. Those numbers of 150 dead in Mexico you keep hearing about. Not so much.
WHO says the actual number is 7. That's right - 7. But be sure to keep tuned to your favorite 24-hour news network, because you may be number 8!
I linked to this at my blog, Al, with a post titled PanicMongers, Inc. Good call.
ReplyDeletebtw, I have a post scheduled to publish at noon today all about your new blog.
p.s. - are you going to activate the Links function for your posts?
