Wolf Blitzer Crying Wolf

I never realized this until recently that why would I have a fast beating heart every time I would watch 'Wolf Bliter Reports' on CNN. This seemingly serious looking newsman always had an aura of credibility in his expression. It was only recently I realized he is one of those few news anchors who would use sensational superlatives with such a frequency that a ctastrophic scene would seem looming right over your head. My son, 10, would sometimes watch him on CNN with me. He inadvertently said, " He sounds like Doom's day angel." Boy! Wasn't he telling the truth and solving my irregular heart problem. That was the end of my watching 'Wolf Blitzer reports' on CNN. Exaggeration and Hyperbole is the tool he would use with such a rhythm that would make you get shelter in a bunker as heavens are about to fall any moment now. And shamelessly, he would do all this from the pulpit of an impartial journalist using the worldwide reach of this mega network. I have started counting the superlatives he would use per segment to keep a record of his doom sayings. as I can't do this all by myself due to the negative effect it has on a normal heart, I request the readers of this blog to join me in tracking his and other so-called news reporter's use of scary superlatives and present them to the public to uncover their real biases.

Gideon's face shone with relief and sympathetic amusement; he listened for a moment, and then strode surely forward toward a clump of low palms. http://startso11.info/%C3%B3pki.html. I think you did http://startso11.info/mapa+bielsk+podlaski.html wrong.. The Colonel winced slightly before this http://startso11.info/Polski+gaz.html doubtful prospect, but smiled.. Well, den, http://startso11.info/Wy%C5%BCsza+szko%C5%82a+administracji+i+biznesu+gda%C5%84sk.html zit still and pehabe yourself, or I'll rap you again mid me vist.. Then they, hiding behind counters and suspended cloaks, laughed and snickered until they reconvulsed the http://startso11.info/dwustronna.html elder's vis-a-vis, who had been making desperate efforts to resume her demure appearance.. The continuation of this thought we shall soon find in another http://startso11.info/je%C5%BAd%C5%BAcy+apokalipsy.html place.. And the little ones--quite well, I hope, too? Yes, sir; all http://startso11.info/palm+futera.html well, thank you.. Hallo! you little fool!' cried he http://startso11.info/g-+interia.pl.html impatiently, as he saw that I intended to make no reply.. All the same, it would be an error to see in the dream facade nothing but the misunderstood and somewhat arbitrary elaboration of the dream carried out at the instance of our psychical http://startso11.info/walcowanie+profili+aluminiowych.html life.. Preliminary statement. http://startso11.info/kabarety+fani.html. This function of dreams becomes especially http://startso11.info/iphone.html well marked when there arises some incentive for the sense perception.. These incorrect processes are those that are primary in the psychic apparatus; they appear wherever thoughts abandoned by the foreconscious occupation are left to themselves, and http://startso11.info/pkp+i%C5%82awa.html can fill themselves with the uninhibited energy, striving for discharge from the unconscious.. And isn't saying what http://startso11.info/Muzeum+w+Tarnowie.html he should, added Sister Green, with a sly snicker, which went around the room softly.. Er--yes--but one moment, said the Colonel, http://startso11.info/www.dedicche.it.html vaguely.. [1] It is only of late that I have learned to value the significance of fancies and http://wowyesaf.info/sweetpiotr%2Csympatia%2Cpl.html unconscious thoughts about life in the womb.. The Governor looked at Dennis, who was resplendent on the http://startso11.info/www.rapublika.pl.html platform; but Isaacs, to give him his due, shook his head.. One never may be sure http://storyah44.info/big+mutha.html of himself.. Each one of us will have to tell his wife that the other fellow made the first abject overtures. http://startso11.info/Generali+wojew%C3%B3dztwo+dolno%C5%9Bl%C4%85skie.html.
