Look Folks,

if the Youtube video you are watching about some Very Important Social Issue is accompanied by grand instrumental music, you are not being informed. You are being manipulated. I don't even understand why this needs to be pointed out.

There must be an exception for videos of Dick Cheney that are accompanied by the Imperial March.

No exception. Besides, when I see videos of Dick Cheney, I always hear the Imperial March in my head anyway. I thought everyone was like that.

With videos of Joe Biden, its "Send in the Clowns" in my head ...

Chaon said...

Wrong again. Joe Biden is "Yakety Sax".

Cincinnatus said...

OK, that would have been my second choice.

Reminds me of those Taiwan talk shows where they bring out some person to tell their sob story and they actually have a piano player sitting there playing sad music over the story.
