reports, July 17My friend posted this in his journal and I think it's important enough that the whole world should take a moment to reflect on it. Yes..the world lost a talented performer and artist in Michael Jackson..but there are many more tragic deaths occurring daily all over the world that go unnoticed. Please give these heroes your prayers and thanks too.

Perspective on Sight
~Skytrite
reports, July 15
reports, July 15Everyone has their own perspective, the way we percieve things is changable and uncertain. Yet, undeterringly we see things as good and bad, beautiful and ugly. I suppose this is my perspective on that kind of sight.

George Carlin on Religon
~TRegnier2795
reports, July 16
reports, July 16He's gone now, but George Carlin was a philosopher as much as a comedian. When he told a joke, he did it to make us think, and that is why he was a such a success: he told it like it is.
Here's lookin' at you, George.

Death Is NOT News
~wackycracka
reports, February 16, 2008
reports, February 16, 2008Feeling depressed and angry at the world and the widespread sickness that has overtaken the human race as a whole??
Me too.
So I did a little experiment. For one week I didn't watch the news or visit any website that contains news headlines or a news ticker or any mention of current events.
This was difficult for me as I always like to keep up on current events just to be in the know and have my facts straight for when I have to argue with idiots.
But after one week of not hearing about senseless deaths, government corruption/incompetence, babies getting their faces ripped off by wild dogs, celebrity breakups, school shootings, and Britney Spears' latest breakdown...I felt at peace and and almost stopped hating the world.
When the day came to end my experiment - I went to CNN.com and within seconds was bombarded with news of parents killing their baby in a microwave, a patient killing her therapist with a meat cleaver, hundreds more civilians blown up by suicide bombers in the middle east, and the BREAKING NEWS that Britney Spears is just as fucked up as she was yesterday so the media will continue to harass and exploit her in the hope that they drive her to suicide so they'll have something real meaty to report on for the next month.
So to all the news media let me extend a heartfelt "FUCK YOU"
To the rest of you, encourage you to try my experiment and boycott the news for at least one week. If you want to keep up on the presidential race, do what I do and ask someone. I guarantee 100% that you will feel better as a whole and maybe if the media organizations stop making money of sensationalism and human suffering - they'll have to change their ways.
That is all.

 reports, 1d 3h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

Phil says th1s (7:06:52 PM): none? theyre too kvlt for the light?
I kinda HAVE to keep in touch since i'm in college and we're studying current events in writing class and such, but I WILL try the experiment at some point.
The human race as a whole tends to piss me off as well. But I try to be positive and surround myself with positive things, like friends and art and video games. ^^ It's very therepuetic. (I KNOW I spelled that wrong so just kick me XP)
but that's me, the ultimate optamist.XD Oh well.
Well done. Very well done indeed.

For celebrity news, I like The Soup. As far as the presidential race goes, I get all the information I need from The Daily Show and The Colbert Report.

"I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam; I looked into the soul of the boy next to me." - Woody Allen
But I think that instead of just rejecting it they should at least say why and give constructive critics.
