Politics are amazing, you gotta f….. love it.
I just stumbled across this beautiful and completely self contradictory article from the (supposed to be impartial) commentator Ralf Pittelkow.
In the Danish newspaper Jyllands Posten he is analyzing the campaigns for the upcoming election and today he wrote this piece of art
If you don’t want to read the article, here’s a recap:
The Danish tv-channels are not acting fair and objective towards the current government. Instead they are (un)consciously supporting the opposition. This happens because of the fact that most journalists, according to Pittelkow, have a leftwing bias and that they cannot act professionally and separate their personal opinions and their daytime job. I won’t judge whether Pittelkow is right or wrong, because of my job at DR, but I would like to give a piece of free advice:
If you want to attack media institutions and question journalists’ ability to be professional, fair and objective, you are not helping yourself by placing the attack on the same webpage as your wife’s pro-government banner-ad. Pittelkow’s wife (and co-writer on a book about the dangers of Islam) is the current Minister of Social affairs…
Maybe I’m just being silly, but in my opinion it’s not gonna fly
Note to wanna-be credible media commentator:
- If spouse is campaigning for her political career
- Then check banner ads before questioning the motives of others….
Using the basic material from his book “Free Culture”, Lawrence Lessig is presenting his view on how to solve the conflict between end user-recreation and copyright issues.
I highly recommend the book and his TED-talk
Lawmakers! Please listen to this talk…. and read the book!!!
