I Was a Free Teenage Intern

I’m not exactly sure what “alternative” newspapers, liberal magazines and websites do with their free teenage interns…but I know that it resembles precisely that of what AOL and Huffington do to theirs.
For free!

For the last 322 years or so…journalism has used free teenage interns for everything from fetching grubs, to luring unsuspecting gay politicians — so that we don’t have to be bothered with troublesome news like Fukushima, torture, or Orwell’s fictional-true predictions of today.

9/11 has become just another marketing tool for the Pentagon, while your kids teachers are vilified, healthcare is nullified and red light cameras are about the only thing Tim Eyman can’t stomach.

Perhaps if Mother Jones and the Huffington Post shared their free teenage interns…we’d get a few more articles written with a fresh and free perspective.

Until that day, we’re just going to have to read important words from the likes of Rick Ungar… words that share importance with the words of Ron Jaworski.  With the glaring difference being, I’m certain that the Homeland will never receive a Jaworski-like apology from Ungar.

It’s just easier that way.

Somebody blew up America, Rick, and it wasn’t Iraq.  It wasn’t AfPakistan and couldn’t have been Yemen.  It also was not Mexico, Iran, Vietnam, Somalia, Grenada or Reagan’s shit stained diaper of an election
for the Contras.

No. Wait. My bad. Reagan’s shit stained diaper of an election for the Contras…was involved.

Free teenage interns know what confused journalists like Rick Ungar do not:  Presidents aren’t magical, they just clean up, then cover it up…for each other, Jamie Dimon, God, Blackwater/Xe and country.
