The future for journalism...or journalism for the future

Clearly not content with simply reporting the news as it happens, the BBC now gazes into its crystal ball in order to give a day-by-day hyping of stories that “could be dominating the headlines” in the coming week.

Perhaps TAE should start a new feature pointing out stories that the BBC might mis-report in the days ahead.

Well, at Joobo we are considering doing much the same thing: looking at potential news stories this week.

A look at what our stories might be:

__________

Ted Kennedy, Democrats Lie About US Gas Prices

Harry Reid, Democrats Lie About Immigration Laws

Nancy Pelosi, Democrats Lie About West Virginia Democrat Hollohan Caught in Corruption Web

Keith Olbermann, Democrats Lie About Tony Snow's Impact as New WH Press Secretary

Bill Maher is a Stoned Out Imbecile

______________

Uh, now that I think about it, these could be LAST WEEK'S stories, or NEXT WEEK's.

Either will do.

If you don't like things then go back to the U.S. I don't go to your country and while there blog about how this or that in the States is horrid. It's called acting like a guest and no one likes a poor one. It's all about the way one's raised I suppose, I'm sorry that you're parents failed.

This report was recently prepared by several respectable Panamanian attorneys who are devoted to the importance of the law in Panama and believe it is important to reveal how the blind ambition of a law firm is attempting to prevent the enforcement of the last will and testament of an American expatriate, who wishes to give $50.0 Million to benefit thousands of needy children in Panama.

If the gift by the American expatriate to the poor children of Panama is prevented; $50.0 Million Dollars will go to one of Panamas elite and most powerful families. This gift is the largest legacy of charitable giving for this purpose in the history of the country.

>>Act like a guest?? >>a coward?? How about a Saint -- this man (Lucom) is giving $50 million U.S. to poor children of Panama. What has been happening in Panama is greed. Let the American Will be followed, as he wished - end of story.

The Lucom estate is made up by land not worth $50 million but Lucom was smart enough to sign off on its sale to foreign developers of the Grand Panama project to ensure funds were available for the poor children of Panama. US journalist Richard Koster follows up on the story http://tropiland.blogspot.com/2008/12/another-rights-of-possession-saga-when.html

Hey
Each region has its own problems and peculiarities, in such a developed country as United Kingdom, they also have.
Currently United Kingdom faces various issues, including somewhat concerning air pollution, controversial migration.
