#newscasters

Stop believing everything reported on the news. Newscasters are not compelled to tell the truth, only to keep you entertained. Just because they claim to be “journalists” doesn’t mean they are a valid source of information or they uphold some standard. While the story they break may have happened, it’s tainted with their formulated opinion and it’s constructed to rile you up in order to make you feel a certain emotion instead of understanding what occurred. 

Just the facts ma'am,

like Joe Friday I want news

let me decide how

I'll react, I can think, thanks.

I demand you step away.

I HAVE FINALLY WATCHED PINOCCHIO. I put this off for the longest time because of my ignorance to the wonderfully acting job that can be done by Lee Jung Suk and Park Shin Hye. Now that am well versed on the odd kdrama plotlines I can now fully enjoy this drama. Also witness one of the best Park Shin Hye kisses of alltime.

Cast: Park Shin Hye(really fit this role), Lee Jung Suk (as charismatic as always), Kim Young Kwang (not to impressed by him), Lee Yoo Bi (I think she was just there to be annoying), Lee Pil Mo(!!!!!!), and my favorite Jin Kyung (though she is actually pretty horrible in this drama. 

My Thoughts: Before I actually talk about things can we go over Lee Jung Suk’s really ugly wig. I couldn’t help but burst into laughter every time I saw him on screen with it on. I thought it was ridiculous. But at least it was an effort to damper the beauty of a guy for once not a girl.

This drama had a lot ups and downs, but it was built basically all on the coincidence that Lee Jong Suk’s character ends up being adopted by the in-laws of the woman that ruined his life. The fact that the guy who has (not) accidentally been stalking Park Shin Hye saw her on a bus and knew exactly who she was while driving, talk about good car safety. I mean it was really big coincidences that kept piling up and making the problems in the drama too easy to resolve. Lee Jung Suk’s brother was so easy to find in this drama. I thought we would have to hire a private investigator for him, but no we just had to run into his truck.

I loved Lee Jung Suk in this drama, he’s always so charismatic. Park Shin Hye played the same character she is in every drama, but this time she learned how to kiss properly while not looking like it hurts. If only that didn’t happen in Doctors. The grandpa was my favorite character of the family, the dad wasn’t as interesting as I would have hoped. He was mostly there for comic relief. Lee Pil Mo was gold I loved him so much. It was funny how he fell in love with the invasive reporter. I hated the little mommy lover that was Kwang Young Kim. He might have been a tad attractive but he still was a creep and weirdo. I didn’t fall for the forced one-sided love triangle that was supported by him text stalking her for a numbers of year.

The ending of this drama, was pretty good. I like how in Korean dramas they usually teach you that full out revenge isn’t always the answer. Justice was served in the drama, but it wasn’t over the top. I was kinda bummed about how Lee Jung Suk’s brother had to go to jail. I know he had actually killed and all, but this was the same feeling I had when I got to the end of I Remember You. Murdering people is bad and all, but you grow to love all characters. Even that horrible mother. She redeemed herself in some ways in the end. The icing on the cake was that Park Shin Hye and Lee Jung Suk got together!!! I hated the one side unrequited love aspect with Lee Jung Suk life was so much better when they outwardly showed love to each other.

I really don’t know why it took me forever to watch this drama. It was actually really good. Park Shin Hye was still a bit of a damsel in distress, and Lee Jung Suk was still the overtop main lead.(But honestly we still love it). Pinocchio was still a well made drama.

Blame the Republikkkan control of the media - most major newscasters are controlled by the same rich folk that bought Rump's presidential runs.

As for Fox, their own owner - Rupert Murdoch - said that they're not truly a news organization!

Rather, Fox News is in the entertainment business...

Of course, the truth is that Murdoch's another right wing nut.

He even attempted to have his right wing son (Lachlan) be the one who inherits the Fox News Corp...
