Television Has Become An Obituary Column

[Flanders]

Television has gotten much worse since I posted this thread:

Media Piranhas

Regardless of how anyone dies anywhere in the world the story fills the airwaves on every TV news show. The location of the dead and dying is no longer local news because local stations get the gory details from an army of network ghouls.

Bottom line: Every death is international news now that natural disasters, accidents, and murders have been joined by political slaughters; so it was inevitable that television become one huge obituary column with a side helping of violence.

Incidentally, I wonder if television news in foreign countries broadcast our homegrown killings and violence?

possum thought he was spooky inna Exorcist...

World Famous Exorcist Father Gabriele Amorth Dies at 91
9/16/2016 - The outspoken Pauline priest had performed over 70,000 exorcisms over the past 30 years.

A priest of the diocese of Rome, Father Amorth was admitted to hospital a few weeks ago suffering from pulmonary complications, according to Italian media reports. His death was announced by the San Paolo group which has published many of his books. Born in Modena on May 1, 1925, Gabriele Amorth entered the Pauline congregation in Alba in 1947, five years after meeting its founder, Blessed Giacomo Alberione. Ordained in 1951, he was appointed exorcist of the diocese of Rome in 1985 by Cardinal Ugo Poletti.

Often sought out by media around the world for his views on exorcism and understanding the struggle against evil, Father Amorth once confirmed to the Register that he thought Hitler and Stalin were “certainly” possessed by the devil, but denied that that fact removed their own personal responsibility for their actions. They followed “the promptings of the devil and they have done so willingly,” Father Amorth said in a 2006 interview. “Therefore they are guilty, completely responsible.”

When asked if there were any leaders today who could be similarly possessed, the exorcist said there are “many who listen to the temptations of Satan and follow him.” Because of that, he said, “the world goes bad.” Instead of leading others “towards peace and well-being, the world moves towards war and unease,” he said. Last year, at a conference in Rome, he said “ISIS is Satan” in reference to the so-called Islamic State which has been brutally murdering Christians and other minorities in the Middle East in an effort to create a worldwide caliphate. Members of the terrorist group have since been trying to spread their atrocities to the West.

Father Amorth said at the time only two spiritual realms exist, “the Holy Spirit and the demonic spirit,” and that the demonic enters in “because evil is disguised in various ways: political, religious, cultural.” The demonic spirit has one source of inspiration: “the devil”, and as a Christian, he said he fights “the beast spiritually.” He noted that the political world, “which today seems to lack a response in face of the massacre of Christians, will also have to fight ISIS and it will do it in a different way. If it advances as it seems to be doing, we ask ourselves what has the West done over the course of the last decades.”

I finally figured out why the media loves Hillary Clinton. How can ghouls not love President Hillary Clinton defending the Constitution?
