![]() | VoicePost 263K 1:20 | “Hi. It has been brought to my attention that, first of all, I'm not using my voice posts. And second, at least one of you wants to know what I sound like. This is what I sound like. I'd like to read you something from the worst local news in the world: San Antonio's KENS-5 eyewitness news. This is a piece by Itsa Gutierrez. That's right, Itsa Gutierrez. Just a Gutierrez, not THE Gutierrez. It starts with the two stupidest sentences in the history of journalism. And since this only gives me five minutes [of which you've used less than 27% --ed.], I'm not going to tell you why. You'll just have to figure it out yourself. Here's what Itsa Gutierrez has to say. "Adult pornography has been around for many years, but recently, child porn has soared to the top of the list for online pedophiles. According to authorities, child pornography has sunk to an all-time low." Now there are at least five stupid things about those two sentences. And if you've got the time, and God knows I do, you can spend the rest of the day figuring them out, and thinking about how a highly-paid journalist wrote them.” Transcribed by: |
