I just was reading about Ted Koppel leaving ABC after 25 years on Night Line to join the NPR network. What a news flash! Where else could he go -
I recall when he first started on Nightline, he was pretty even handed But then, in the last ten or so years, he started to mind-meld with the more news indigent left wing commentators like Dan Rather and Peter Jennings.
As a result, as anyone could see by watching the show, he was transformed from tell the truth to telling what he thought was the truth, or should be the truth.
When your ego takes over your soul and you start listening to what the critics say about how wonderful you are, especially when the critics are in the same business that you are, you begin to believe that no matter what you say, it's gospel.
You are the soul embodiment of what is important and right. You have given your blessing to this version of the truth as you understand it, so, therefore, it is the truth. No questions asked. We have to believe it - after all, Ted is a professional journalist, and has been for 25 years, just like Dan Rather.
What happens to these people when they finally come to the realization that they are the very center of the universe? When they sit in front of the camera, the world falls silent because Ted Koppel is about to speak the truth, according to the gospel of the liberal left puppet masters. The very fabric of the universe has become clearer, hasn't It? Hmmmm - maybe not - maybe he had to leave after all of those years, because the general public became too stupid to understand how insightful he had become. Could be -
But don't feel to bad for our boy, Ted is headed into his second career now as he joins NPR as commentator and analyst on breaking news stories. What better place than on a tax supported news network that supports all things left of Lenin - just as they hired Daniel Shore after he exposed the top secret pentagon papers that Daniel Elsberg stole while working for the government. Sound familiar?
What is it that Yoga Berria said about this sort of situation - "it's deja vue all over again" - but this time it will be harder to get away with it -
