One day a very respectable journalist (one the few left) said: "The journalist's job is to explain something he doesn't understand to people who won't understand either.". .. .What sometimes pisses me off is that they do damage just for profit and sometimes (even worse) for nothing, but also in the name of the people. "The people have the right to know". Yeah, sure. How many times those dumb journalists have made a situation worse by interfering in it ?. .. .I don't have a PhD in psychology (which means I probably miss something in the whole picture), but still I find quite pathetic to see men and women so eager to be at the heart of any event. Supposedly to bring the news to the rest of us. Ha, what a joke ! I believe that what they really want is to be able to say "I was part of it, I made History". . .. .Yes my friend, you were part of it. You made a difference. You played a role. You were not invisible to the rest of us. You helped us reach enlightenment. Now get a psychotherapy !. .. . <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" />
