Big Brother Is Watching
August 11, 2009
A cautionary tale for those who tweet, twitter and post their inner most thoughts online (see item below). Remember, Big Brother is always watching...
Which brings to mind something that columnist Thomas Sowell wrote today, i.e., "Perhaps the scariest aspect of our times is how many people think in talking points, rather than in terms of real-world consequences."
Indeed, although even scarier is how many people would rather tweet, than think at all.
See "Pentagon's a 'Net Minder.'"

Notable Quotables
"Mr. Netanyahu is one of the most media-savvy politicians on the planet. On Friday he appeared live via video link on 'Real Time with Bill Maher,' taking the host’s alternately sardonic and serious line of questioning with gazelle-like alacrity."
~ Anthony Grant, jourrnalist who has written for many major newspapers and worked in television at Paris and Tel Aviv, interviewing former PM Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday, at the outset of Mr. Netanyahu's new book (more here).
