Celebriterrorism, The Votes Are In

It seems that America does vote with their wallet. The show West Wing has been cancelled by NBC due to low ratings. It would appear that viewers are no longer interested in great enough numbers to continue to watch such a liberal agenda crammed down their throats. Without the viewers, the advertisers are not going to spend their precious marketing budgets to entice the viewer to buy their product. That is how capitalism works after all. You spend money to create something that people want in hopes that they will buy it. That is what television programming is. You are buying a product.

You will note that PBS, who does not have to create programming that people want, asks you to pledge funds to keep them afloat. That is not capitalism, it is begging. Now don’t get me wrong, I enjoy some PBS programs but I would not send them money to keep them on TV. If they were viable, they would support themselves on a network. But of course PBS came into being before cable and it is often difficult to make something that does not want to die just fade away.

Now the West Wing had a few more surprises. Entertainment Tonight asked a few stars what they thought. George Clooney was surprised that such a wonderful show would be going off the air. Since it spreads his liberal communist doctrine, he was sad to see it go. Of course his movies, that color the truth about history and current events, have done so well at the box office. What were they again, something about the McCarthy hearings and something about oil and terrorism? Oh boy, two hot buttons and no one was interested.

So America, get out there and continue to vote. The more these celebrity terrorists realize that we are not interested in what they are peddling, the more insane they will get and we will all realize the folly of their endeavor. Maybe we can get a reality show called "Celebrity Suicide." Now that I would watch.
