If you are not a long-time reader or subscriber of the Solari Report, then you might not be familiar with my nickname for the corporate media, or, as Brian Gerrish of UK Column has dubbed them, “the old media.” I call them the “shriek-o-meter,” in part as a tribute to the lengths they often go to, to gain attention and to put their audience into states of incoherence, panic, and fear.
This is the picture I sometimes use when describing a particularly loud news item that the shriek-o-meter has published. When you see it, there is a hidden message—”Don’t take these people seriously, and for heavens sake, maintain your state of amusement.” I found the picture on the Internet but have never found the person to credit. If you know them, let me know so I can give them the credit they deserve.
The next time the shriek-o-meter starts shrieking at you, just turn them off. But if you can’t, if you are stuck in an airport with the noise blaring, just see this picture in your mind and chuckle.
Hear the Pachelbel Canon playing in your mind and move on–this is a great picture of their immature yell-bell. (I can’t help but think when looking at the picture above you are showing the mental age they operate on).
All the best to you!
Ohh, I like “yell-bell.”
Catherine,
Can you turn this picture into a sticker with the words “shriek-o-meter” across it? I would order a whole bunch because I am the type of guy if I am stuck at an airport and this propaganda nonsense is on, I will slap one of those stickers on the television if I cannot change the channel. In fact, if you can print up and put these stickers for sale, I will probably drive to all the propaganda channels in my city and slap them all over their vans, signage and what not. That’s a fun way to amuse myself. I will be cautious of course, do not need a misdemeanor on my record.
So true! Thanks again Catherine!
thanks needed that insight & visual !!!
