I am so tired of mainstream media. I wrote Make Everyone Drown In Affect – M.E.D.I.A. a number of years ago. Sadly, it not only still applies today, but applies even more.

Make Everyone Drown In Affect – M.E.D.I.A.

 

Instead of helping right the wrongs

Some of the media

Have a tendency to ensure

They only write the wrongs

 

Instead of providing insight

They spread and infect

Voices inflect to reflect

Ghost support to the revolutions they incite

 

Under the guise of ‘right to know’

They sensationalize

Put on a boundary-less show

Extremist abuse abounds

Violating our right to ‘no’

 

When there is no story to tell

Tell a story anyway, what the hell

A story that’s no one’s business to tell

Can still be good if you tell it well

 

With nothing else to fall back on

Drill the one they’ve got into the ground

And from its grave they build upon

A pedestal to stand upon

 

Then from their vantage up on high

Enlighten the vacuum public

With their ability to see it all

And thus answer who, when and why

To all the questions that they insist

The viewing audience truly wants to ask

 

This target audience they seek

On the other end of the electric soap box

Sucks it in; they’re too weak

And so follow like zombie sheep

The story-less story of the week

Led by their self-appointed shepherds

 

It wasn’t worth much from the start

But they’ll wean it for what it’s worth

Make a hurricane of every fart

Pull a rhino from their magic hat

Paint the garbage, call it art

Make a cliché out of every molehill

 

They must have a lot of time to kill

And to fill their half hour slot they will
