Thread Name: BS: 'Embedded media'
Subject: RE: BS: 'Embedded media'
I posted a tidy little quip that went unnoticed over on the "newspeak" thread that could stand to be repeated here. My suggestion of "newspeak" said:
How about the press "embedded" in various military units? Embedded like a splinter, or embedded like under-the-government's-thumb-so-they-have-to-report-what-the-government-wants-reported?
Sounds like someone's embedded alright. George and Shell and Dick and Exxon.
But maybe that movie goes too far back to spring to mind now.
