Blunt Instruments: Vicious Rex

Posted on Sunday, September 17 at 13:58 by Lex
Well you may wonder. For those blessedly ignorant of Canada's answer to the collective idiocy filling the airwaves of America, Rex Murphy is employed by State propaganda organ, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, his CBC salary drawn from the monies extracted necessarily, on pain of incarceration, or worse, from the hides of the collective herd, known officially as the Canadian subjects of Her Royal Highness, Queen Elizabeth II, Regina, Empress of the Realm, Defender of the Faith, etc., etc. His nibs' blathering may also be gleaned between the pages of Canada's "National Newspaper," The Globe and Mail. September 11, 2006: Following years of bloody retribution, wars of aggression, and uncounted acts of wanton carnage meted out upon the heads of the peons and peasants of distant Afghanistan, and Iraq, and Lebanon, and Palestine, and Yemen, and Somalia, and the vicious assaults ladled out to the undocumented thousands taken prisoner and tortured in prisons and hidey spider-holes around the world, and after the evisceration of a thousand years of western jurisprudence, and the promise of more abuse and tyranny to come, Rex sits before his keyboard, searching his soul for an outrage, seeking a muse to aid his pen, and fuel his commentary, to be carried, via the State organ, direct to the nation. http://www.pej.org/html/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=5585&mode=thread&order=1&thold=0

    A bit much. You will never outdo Rex Murphy at HIS game. I'm convinced that Murphy plays with himself (maybe that way too), to see if he can top his own over the topness by challenging himself to make sentences with words he has never used before. I did hear this piece but normally I call it quits for the news before he gets started. I'm sorry I stayed to listen to him, he's gone.

    I actually enjoy listening to Rex's commentaries. Not because I agree with him on any given subject but because I find them entertaining. He somtimes amazes me by dragging out some obscure word that I've never heard before. Sometimes I agree with his opinion, sometimes I'm indifferent and it's on those occasions that I'm entertained by the way he arranges the commentary, much like a musician arranges a piece of music. Although on the evening of his tirade against we "consiracy theorists" I was utterly disgusted by a very "off key" and out-of-touch-with-reality piece.
    How can a "journalist" go on a rant denouncing those who seek nothing more than the truth?
