Rapper The Game is Frustrated with the School System

Last week, Game went on an extented Twitter rant about the American educational system. At one point he even said that he thought school was a “waste of time.” The rapper, who does a lot of behind the scenes community activism, expressed that he felt that public schools are often times little more than glorified “baby sitters.”

While the public school system definitely needs improvement, I think it’s important that Game understand that he has more power to change his local school district than 100 school board meetings. Maybe I need to holla at this brotha to get him involved with his local school board. Because if he stood up lots of things would change.

MADtv iPad Parody Has New Wings!

January 31, 2010 Front Page No Comments

This past week, Apple launched the much anticipated iPad. While the technology is cooler than a polar bear’s toenails, it seems they didn’t research the brand name very well. In 2005, MADtv poked fun at the iPad, and well, let’s just say that they envisioned a different use for the product. While we’re willing to bet that Apple will still sells boatloads of their new device, people everywhere are chuckling at Steve Jobs and his crew for not being hip enough to have known that MADtv had already stolen their idea.

Check out the original MADtv bit after the jump.

WTF?! Fox News is the Most Trusted Name in News….No, Really!!

On Tuesday, Public Policy Polling released a poll that said Fox News is the most trusted name in TV news.

In a national survey of 1,151 registered voters, Fox News was the only news outlet that more respondents trusted than distrusted. Some 49% of those polled said they trust Fox News, compared to 37% who said they didn’t. Not surprisingly, there is a strong partisan split: 74% of those who placed their trust in the conservative-skewing network are registered Republicans.

NBC News, which is likely helped by its liberal-skewing MSNBC affiliation, fared best among Democrats. The survey found 62% of Democrats trust the broadcast network’s news.CBS News fared worst among the Republicans (69% distrust it) and independents were generally distrustful of all five news sources they were polled on: Fox News, CNN, ABC News, NBC News and CBS News.

Who the hell were they polling? It clearly wasn’t younger people who watch news with a more critical eye. And forget about the partisan split, because really, the stuff that is going on at MSNBC these days is at times almost as egregious as the shenanigans that goes on at Fox. Call us old fashion, but we believe that unless you are on Comedy Central, nightly news outlets shouldn’t be biased mouth pieces for either party.

The bound-to-be-controversial poll results come on the heels of Glenn Beck taking second place in a recent Harris Poll of America’s favorite TV personalities (Oprah is No. 1) and his host network rounding out the week with its highest prime-time ratings in more than a year. Thanks to the closely watched U.S. Senate election in Massachusetts, the right-leaning cable network ranked No. 1 among all cable networks with 3.2 million tuning in. Still more impressive, its coverage of the Tuesday night election drew more than 6 million viewers in prime time.

After reading this BS we felt that we have no choice but to post the classic viral video of Davey D sticking it to Fox News’ semi-ridiculous pundit Griff Jenkins. Sometimes you have to laugh to keep from crying.

Answer the question Fox News!!
