Always Watching the All-Seeing Eye

 

Manufacturing the News

By Brian C. Ledbetter · Tuesday, November 6. 2007 09:51
Michelle points out another incident where a major news agency has gone hunting for dastardly Republican intolerance in Birmingham, Alabama. I wonder why ABC News never sees fit to send an outspoken anti-homosexual protester into San Francisco to see what the Tolerant Elite think.

ABC is doing a social experiment in Birmingham that includes having same-sex couples show affection for each other in public, according to Birmingham police department sources.

FOX6 first learned about this story from a Southside merchant who pointed out an RV parked at the corner of 20th Street and 11th Avenue South. The merchant said ABC was working on a week-long project to see how people would react to things like public displays of affection by gay and lesbian couples. A FOX6 news reporter approached the RV and talked with an “actor” who said, “Yes, we are working for ABC News.”

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*hmmmm... ABC again rigging their experiments? Using actors? I wonder if they will do a true experiment? Will they have a heterosexual couple there as well showing affection? Will they have old people showing affection? how about mating dogs?

I agree Brian. Just another attack on normalcy. "Let's see how odd and intolerant these backwood hicks really are!"

I like your experiment.

*Let's bring a guy from Korea, and set him out on the corner, and have him butcher dogs and make soup out of them right in front of everyone. We'll do this in san francisco or some other equally leftarded city, and see how long it takes before some yuppie takes offense.

See how tolerent of other's cultures liberals really are
