News Fiasco Internationale

I looked in the paper, and guess what it said?
It read, "Panagiota is dead!
I quick turned on CNN.
News Alert! "Panagiota lost her head!"
Oh, I was more than mad!

So I went to Joe Scarborough on MSNBC.
He reported ever so gleefully..
"There is not,and never will a Panagiota be!

Don Lemon, Mr.Cool, just had a sip of water.
Then, burped and in a velvety, whisper uttered.
"Oh, Panagiota. Yes. She never mattered."

So why this rhyme, you ask? 
It's time for the media to take off their masks.
Show themselves for who they are, be given a 
check, shown the door and find other tasks.

I have never heard such lies from so many stations.
I can't stop the transfusion of lies drowning all the 
nations.

I just know there is a God, to answer to.
And I am glad I am not any of these manipulators.
Their day is coming my friend. They willingly forgot 
that God is bigger than any puny station.

And you bet, they will all have to pay one eternal due 
in a fiery end.
So be your own best friend.
Be a stand-up person.
There is no glory nor eternal joy in a harangue of baseless 
condemnations and allegations.

I will Soupmail you a reply. Poems like this are rare here. I have a passion for truth. Let's see who else has the chutzpah to post. Panagiota

I'm afraid you are correct. Journalism is dead. It's nothing but propaganda now. They have no shame. Have a great night my friend.

I know sources to trust. tV is the worst.9/11 was ugly...you were there. This is an attempt to destroy all of America. Divide the country is their sword. Name calling, too. I do trust sane Americans know better and their God. Panagiota
