Being financed to this point would mean that TvNewsLIES could pay for its overhead and any money over this amount could go towards hiring reporters and expanding the new radio program. It would also allow TvNewsLIES could repay my original investment so that I can do things like pay the rent and buy food! Just something to think about. http://tvnewslies.org/html/an_urgent_message.html *Support us with a simple click of the mouse!:* If every subscriber to this site clicked on some of the text ads on the news page we would probably earn enough advertising revenue to keep going without donations! *SHOP WITH US! *b If you use our links on the side of the news page when you shop at your favorite online stores we receive revenue from the online shops and it costs you nothing! *SPECIAL NOTE: Millions of spam messages are going out with various nonexistent TvNewsLIES.org return addresses. Our server has been bogged down dealing with the bounced and rejected messages. We are about two days behind with our mail and our servers were a bit slow over the past two years. I am taking measures to correct and prevent this problem. - FYI - Jesse* *TVNL Editor's Comments: Hey, Have You Heard the News? Betcha Haven't!* I have been watching TV news for five straight days trying to find a single real news report. I'm telling you I can not for the life of me find any real news! Nothing! I watched CNN from the top of the hour at 9AM today and 27 minutes into the broadcast I still did not see anything that can accurately be described as legitimate national news. Even the coverage of stories that may be considered news had angles that made them non-news. For example a report on wild fires was actually a personal drama about a single family experiencing tragedy. And don't look for any news tonight; at least don't look for news on CNN because Larry King will be devoting his entire hour to Paris Hilton. I have to hand it to Larry King He has done what no other human has; he managed to maintain a 50 year career without a single important accomplishment! He is to journalism what Joe Franklin was to late night talk shows! Long lived and unimportant. I wish I could sit down with every American family and watch one hour of any news channel or program. I guarantee you that hour would change the lives of most Americans. They would for the first time see the criminality of the establishment news industry. It would become obvious to them. Maybe I can figure out a way to do that. Until then the tragic joke on the American people continues and Americans will continue to think Paris Hilton belongs on news broadcasts. *Think about it.
