Ok america, who is winning the medal race at the olympics. Every medal table other than msnbc’s has China ahead due to the fact they have won more golds. This includes the official IOC results. It seems to me to be a way to make sure we win at all costs. I am going to christen it “medal table doping”.
So a while ago I mentioned that I had been contacted by a comcast rep because of my gripes on this blog. Well, I had 2 individuals contact me, the second of which had a very senior sounding title.
We spoke at length about the issues I was having. It appears that each time I had a service rep out, they did not always record the fact that they visited my house. The Comcast representative mentioned that they only had 1 record of a service call, when I had somebody visiting 5 times within a 4 week period. It appears that the tech guys are a little lax with the paperwork.
Now, I know the US does not offer an impartial news channel. CNN leans left, Fox leans right – tho both deny it adamantly. Because of this I find myself reading and listening to a wide variety of sources for my news intake. However, I laughed today when I went to the CNN website to check the latest poll of polls that they do (Obama leads by 4 btw).
So on the main politics page, I find a nice large ad for Obama’s campaign. Now, I know that this is more to do with CNN’s advertising business unit than the political news desk, but I did think it rather broke any hint of impartiality the website is attempting to show.
It had to happen 🙂
