88. Volunteer Week

By this time I am sure you have heard about Volunteer Week, i.e., the week TV shows embed subliminal messages into their shows that encourage people to get out and volunteer. Do you really think that's necessary. Unlike Glenn Beck who ranted against it for at least 20-25 minutes on his show, I have no problem with encouraging right morals. Maybe some of our children will actually pick up on the things we parents have tried to instill in them for years -- maybe they just need to hear it from their really TV people idols. However, when TV shows begin doing this, what is there to stop them from embedding ANY MESSAGE into their programs. I remember distinctly the ploy Boston Legal used to drive the progressive platforms. Right up to the day before the presidential election when even Denny decided to vote Democratic against his real values. Boston Legal had to be the worse offending partisan program on TV, other than the constantly liberal major news networks. But, what should be done? I would be prudent letting children watch programs which deceptively brainwash them into thinking only one way is right and not to ever consider opposing arguments. Even Sesame Street is becoming suspicious with Michele Obama making visits. The intents may be honest, but their stories not necessary truth. So goes Hollywood and its liberal base. I can understand why Glenn Beck gets so aroused -- this must be just one more infiltration into corrupting media in his mind. I let it to you to decide. You may approve of the messages being subliminally embedded into programming today, but will you be when a different administration takes over?
