Anyone else find it pathetic that the only news program to produce a rational, informed response to Bolden discussing NASA's PR goals is a fucking comedy show?

>> No.1389990

Not really.

Daily Show, Colbert Report, shows like that (fortunately) mock just about everyone. Their only bias seems to be against people who act like fucking retards.

I feel like there's a liberal idealogical undertone to both shows though.

That's possibly because you're a conservative/lolbertarian who hates people poking fun at you.

Back to the issue... has any mainstream network actually picked up on the fact that Bolden was discussing low priority PR goals, not top of the list goals that would take priority over space exploration?

Also, my face when

Way better than the IRS outreach to Muslims.

Daily Show has a more rational response to everything than any cable news outlet and most network coverage as well.

Yeah, they still get shit wrong, occasionally miscue, and in general fluff it up for their own benefit, but still...

He makes fun of obama all the time, he had 2-3 stories with him this week.

That's not to say he's the only thing out there though.

>> No.1390346

>>1390325

I can think of two separate occasions when he made fun of Jews, once when he was talking about Kagan, and another when he was with a guest plugging a new TV show.

He calls Obama and the democrats incompetent every show.

If it worked like that, we'd be dead a long time ago. We are lacking in hate to be honest. Hate inspires competition, hate is what fueled our rockets to the moon quicker than the Soviets could. Hate is what filled the atomic bombs we dropped onto Japan. Hate is the fury that we unleashed upon Germany in WWI after they killed our citizens on a defenseless ship. Hate is why we burned Atlanta in the Civil War after the Confederates thought they could break away. Hate is what we unleashed for some random reason in the War of 1812 that got us a cool national anthem. Hate is what made our greatest ancestor, some microbe, eat the microbe next to itself. Hate will propel man to Mars and beyond.

I say that we work together - use the GLOBAL resources and economy to build something truly great.

Something no one nation can achieve on its own.
Doing this in and of itself will be a task many thought to be insurmountable. Basically, the world is shit unless we combine our power.
