Why include orphans? Poor bastard's (well.. I use the term loosely) have hard enough time as it is, they don't need more attention brought upon their bane.Labyrinth said:More Milla Jovoich? I'm all for that!
Amusing stuff this week, but it needs more orphans!
It's contextual. Orphans are a typical figure for the stimulation of pity because the archetypal 'happy childhood' includes two parents and a stable home environment. To have lost both and to be alone, per se, is something we sympathise with. A bit like the grieving lover. In news it can increase the sorrow of an article, turning it into something horrible because these people have already lost so much. And so on.Puppeteer Putin said:Why include orphans?

But then it's not journalism, it's spin. Your using these poor orphan's dilemmnas to shape a readers interpretation of a peice of information or news.Labyrinth said:It's contextual.

If there are orphans involved, let there be orphans in the writing of it. All media presents a context and a bias because to simply write the facts of "x-people/person did a to z" would never a) sell or b) make use of a language we have. They're not people fighting people, they're terrorists and Peacekeepers, or freedom fighters and invaders. The orphans get caught in the middle.Puppeteer Putin said:But then it's not journalism, it's spin.

So infact, you pre-emptively create context for the reader rather than them allowing their own context to shape their opinion.
I assure you, there is no journalism going on anywhere in this thread.Puppeteer Putin said:But then it's not journalism, it's spin. Your using these poor orphan's dilemmnas to shape a readers interpretation of a peice of information or news.
In the middle, either side of where their parents should be? See?! you've already made me feel bad about debating the subject by bringing up the sodding cannibalist's delicacy and their personal issues. Hell, it COULD even cause readers to have inner crisis about tangential political and social issues. And really, if they're reading the news do they need more issues and self-depricating revelations?Labyrinth said:If there are orphans involved, let there be orphans in the writing of it.

Just make sure you don't forget to bring yours, because playing with your friend's balls is rarely as satisfying."But to really get the full experience, you need a friend to play with. Really, there's nothing better than a having a couple of friends over, drinking some beer and playing with your balls."
Didn't they already do that with the periphreal that came with the original Rez? LOL.iblis666 said:if sony ever made a motion sensitive device you know the porn industry would make a dildo shaped motion sensitive device with of course a great vibrate setting hell the only reason that they havent done so with the wii is because nintendo would never let a porn company do it
You sir need to get off the internets. It is no place for "feelings". LOL.Puppeteer Putin said:In the middle, either side of where their parents should be?
