I read an article about supermarkets now offering “video-equipped shopping carts.” There’s a screen advertising store products for the parents and a second screen inside the child’s “car” playing videos like “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse” and “Handy Manny.” My initial reaction was, “do children really need to be exposed to more tv?” But I never had […]
You’re not going to believe this, and I really don’t believe it myself, but I’m going to defend those yo-yos on “Jersey Shore” – well sort of. Just this week, I read that the “stars” of Jersey Shore are heading to the shores of Italy to start filming their next season. Well, the Italians are […]
So, a few weeks ago, my nephew sent me a link to the following webpage, “W Magazine Replies to Kim Kardashian’s Tears Over ‘Porn’-y Nude Pics.” Let me start out by saying that I find anything Kardashian disgusting and try to avoid reading about Kim or the rest of the litter. I still remember […]
A couple of weeks ago, someone asked on my Facebook page, I Don’t Get It, for my comments about a tv show on ABC’s fall line-up entitled, “Good Christian Bitches.” So, Rick, here are my thoughts. The tv show is based on the novel by Kim Gatlin. The “dramedy project,” as it’s described, is about […]

At least back then, they and the host, Chuck Woolery, feigned embarrassment. Now, you have the Jerry Springer/Maury Povich crowd who readily admit to […]
I’m not at all familiar with CNN’s correspondent, Alina Cho. I know she wasn’t all too happy with former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown’s op/ed piece he wrote back in 2008 about the rise of Sarah Palin. Other than that, I haven’t paid any attention to her…until a few weeks ago. She recently interviewed Lorena […]
When I think the “Jersey Shore” crowd has hit bottom, there’s yet something else they do to debase themselves. Will this never end? Which one of these losers is baring her bling….
A couple of weeks ago, I published an article about the media circus surrounding the anniversary of Michael Jackson’s death. Several readers responded to that article and wrote about heroes, both past and present, and that got me thinking. On the same day Michael Jackson died, First Lt. Brian Bradshaw was killed in Kheyl, Afghanistan. […]
