ANDY S. and JONAH and MICKEY and PROF and PROF'S co-production MR. BLEAT have gotten into a thoroughly irksome FOOD FIGHT with that idiot HOWIE THE HAIR SHIRT over why NEWS HACKS won't unleash all these wonderful, er, GRUESOME photos of the beheading. They're complaining (among other complaints) that Pee-TAH held back on showing people jumping off the WTC because of -- POLITICS. To which I say, I'd love to see those scenes day after day after day. Andy seems to have forgotten that his former employer TNR made fun of the anchorpoops for obsessing over CHALLENGER. (He seems also to have forgotten that he HATED P. R. MEL.) All have forgotten that LENNY's held back on his best shots -- probably to cover his behind, but he COULD have unleashed a deluge. In the end the food fight devolves into MY PICS ARE GROSSER THAN YOUR PICS. If we have to fight a war based on whose pics are grosser we've lost the war. We all have ready access to photographs of the Holocaust's manifold obscenities. Have they stopped anti-Semitism? Which recalls for me when Lucas Spielberg turned out his patented WWII castor oil Prof. Gelernter (WHY CAN'T HE BLOG?) said the gore wasn't necessary. The CAUSE should have been enough. I'm comfortable with the war we're fighting. WHY AREN'T YOU SUPERBLOGGERS?
