Bob Marley?

I’m leaning back, watching the news and sudenly there is a segment that came up on Bob Marley, which brings up the question, just who is this guy that he should rate a 5 minute segment.

Then, after a short time, it became clear to me. It’s not about him. It is about a movie about him. In other words, it was a 5 minute ad pretending to be news.

Don’t much care for trickery like that. When I tune in to see the news, not pretend news. I kind of like to see important things, not important things to the CBS board.

For anyone intrested, I will not watch the movie. I will discourage others from watching it. Of course, CBS has a bigger megaphone, so I doubt I’ll make a measurable difference. As they say, though, it’s the effort that counts.

At least info-mercials are honest in their representation
