https://www.dailywire.com/news/only-22-of-cable-news-is-news-study

That amounts to nine minutes, 15 seconds of hard news for every hour of broadcasting. Each hour of broadcasting on cable news networks contains nearly twice as much commercial time than hard news. Interviews with newsmakers account for another 16% of broadcast news time.)

— What the ‘Majority Minority’ Shift Really Means for America – Justin Gest (COMMENT: According to Democrats, the majority always discriminates against the minority. That means that ever-increasingly, members of the following groups will be discriminated against: those who are Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

— Weary of turmoil and division, most teens still voice faith in future, Post-Ipsos poll finds. These 14-to-18-year-olds are coming of age amid a pandemic, racial justice protests and political hostility, but remain optimistic about their own lives. – Sydney Trent and Emily Guskin (COMMENT: What were you optimistic about when you were younger? When I was younger, I was optimistic about having a successful career in the automotive industry. But that all ended in 1971 when I was 22 years old. Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Then, Firestone rudely fired me for having accepted that job offer. Then, I accepted a job offer from IRS.)

According to Wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journalist ), a journalist is “an individual trained to collect/gather information in form of text, audio or pictures, processes them to a news-worthy form and disseminates it to the public.” My critics/opponents ignore the fact that what GAO Analysts do is very similar to what journalists do and that I was a GAO Analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $102,188-$132,845/year. My critics/opponents ignore the fact that I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. My critics/opponents hint/imply/argue/shout that an individual cannot be a journalist a) if they are conservative, b) if they are Republican, c) if they do not have a degree in journalism, and/or d) if they are not paid for what they do.

I took graduate business courses at Loyola 1972-1976 and graduate accounting courses at DePaul 1976-1980 and deducted what I paid for tuition and books.

PARADE
— Lights, Camera, Crime and Comedy! The 8 Most Memorable TV Shows From 1971 – Mara Reinstein (COMMENT: What did you do in 1971? I lived with my mother and brother in Crete. My father had died suddenly in October of 1969. I started the year working as the Retail Sales Manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights, taking a graduate business management course at UIC, and awaiting a decision on my application for a financial hardship draft deferment. That application was approved, and because of my draft lottery number, I was no longer subject to the draft. I believe that prompted Oldsmobile to offer me a job which I accepted. But when I told my Firestone boss, he immediately and rudely fired me. But then, Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS to be a GS-7 (currently $48,445/year) Revenue Officer in Chicago. But then, my Firestone boss offered me a part-time job pumping gasoline which I accepted. Before I started working for IRS and working part-time for Firestone, I went on a spring break vacation in the Bahamas. My 1969 Dodge Charger SE was stolen in Chicago in August. That directly resulted in my buying a new 1972 Corvette and a 1962 Chevy Bel Air for everyday use. At the end of the year, IRS granted my request to be assigned to its Harvey office.)

— Illinois Sued Over Veteran Provision In Pot Dispensary Licensing (DIERSEN: GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified veteran who would take the job. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified veteran who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified veteran who would take the job. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted a) that instead of me, the Post Office should have hired a veteran in 1966, b) that the Post Office should gotten rid of me much sooner than it did so that a veteran could have my job, c) that instead of me, IRS should have hired a veteran in 1971, d) that instead of me, IRS should have promoted veterans in 1972, 1973, and 1974, e) that instead of me, GAO should have hired a veteran in 1980, f) that instead of me, GAO should have promoted a veteran in 1986, and g) that GAO should have gotten rid of me much sooner than it did so that a veteran could have my job and my preferred corner office. GAO employees who were veterans were protected against any adverse impacts from the massive budget cuts that GAO suffered during the 1990s.)

— Focus on the suburbs (DIERSEN: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. Illinois Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, and RINO major donors and political consultants want Republicans to lose. Ever-increasingly, they shout at Illinois Republican candidates and party leaders that they should a) dump the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party and b) dump Republicans who support any of the aforesaid planks. Further, Illinois Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, and RINO major donors and political consultants ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout at Illinois Republican candidates and party leaders that they should a) promote hatred against Trump and b) glorify and praise Kinzinger. I should write a book about Illinois Republican candidates and party leaders who have talked and/or acted the most like they have taken the aforesaid advice.)
https://capitolfax.com/2021/08/10/focus-on-the-suburbs/
(FROM RICH MILLER: The hard truth is the Republican Party has been scaring away suburban voters in droves for 20 years in Illinois (with some exceptions) with the issues they choose to run on and the types of people they nominate. Also, the sort of person who can gin up a ton of Downstate turnout is not generally the type who can play well in the suburbs. Bruce Rauner did it (barely winning the primary) and eventually brought peace to the party in 2018, but then eventually created loads of chaos.)

DuPage County Judge Craig Belford on Monday denied some of the expenses County Clerk Jean Kaczmarek said Grogan should pay, knocking the amount down to $112,614. And, Belford decided Grogan should only have to post half of that amount — $56,307 — in advance. Belford said that while the court’s “paramount obligation” is to ensure there is a true and accurate vote count, “the posting of a security should never stand as an obstacle to the accomplishment of this task.”)

EPOCH TIMES
— To Save America, Run for School Board – Roger L. Simon
https://www.theepochtimes.com/to-save-america-run-for-school-board_3933758.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Forget Congress, the Senate, or whatever glamorous position you ever fantasized about or not, even president of the United States, if you want to have a serious impact from your work, if, as they say, you want to make a difference, to change this country for the good in the short and long term, run for your local school board. You would be saving America from turning into the bleakest, socialist-communist state imaginable because that is what our current educational system, K-12, is designed to do and, sadly, has been successful in doing, literally for decades—and it’s only getting worse. You would in the process also be a true revolutionary in the tradition of the Founders of our country in bringing back truth, justice and the American way to our children and our children’s children. Someone’s gotta do it—the hour is late. But you, dear reader, can save us, especially if we band together—and there are plenty of us to do it. Please consider running for the school board to radically change a highly-corrupt and evil leftwing educational system, which has crossed the border into child abuse. The failure of this current system rests on two mutually reinforcing planes. One, indoctrination, rather than actual education, has become the overwhelming goal of our system from pre-school and kindergarten onwards.)
