Daniel Pearl

[Clocker]

I heard on the news that they kill him by first slitting is throat and then decapitating him.

What barbarians these terrorists are. They deserve a really slow death in the gas chamber.

Ahh, thankyou Groltz. Having read it, I'm not sure that I wanted to know after all. The world is a strange and terrible place.

I stopped reading newspapers quite a few years ago and (bar a movie or a little sport now and then) don't watch television, so the only news I hear these days is on the radio during my commute. Seeing as it takes me three minutes to drive to work (two minutes if I catch the traffic light), I can quite easily miss things.

Or, more to the point, not miss things. You know, I only found out about September 11th on Storage Review. Still haven't seen the footage of it.

Doesn't stop me having opinions though. Since I gave up on news, I have discovered that I have no need of facts in order to form opinions: mere prejudice seems to work just as well.
