Crap I never knew

January 2nd, 2009

When I saw the name of the site, The Shit Tits, you KNOW I had to look. It’s even funnier than it sounds.

The Shit Tits

There are over eight million people in New York City. Invariably, each and every one of them will go to the bathroom. So after that fateful flush, where does it go? Well, if they happen to live or work in North Brooklyn or the East Side of Manhattan below 72nd Street, the odds are that their poop will surface two blocks from my home. You see, I live in the shadow of the largest waste treatment plant in New York City, and perhaps on the entire east coast.

Allow Low Power Radio Stations in America’s Cities

December 23rd, 2008

From Change.Org

Local community radio stations are one great antidote to a media run by corporations, corporations which use their ownership of media to further their special interest influence and privileges.

Civil rights groups, immigrants associations, schools, churches and all sorts of groups can widen the American dialog and help provide key emergency information with neighborhood radio stations.

About 800 small town and rural stations were allowed to go forward in 2000, and they have been a great success! Now is time for this kind of community media to be allowed into America’s cities.

The FCC is ready to give out a lot more licenses, but they are partially held up by an act of Congress that broadcasters used to protect themselves from competition by these new voices. The FCC should fix its rules to encourage local community broadcasters over chains of repeaters owned by broadcast companies, and the Obama administration should encourage the passage of the Local Community Radio Act, which Senator Obama co-sponsored.
