One Liner Wednesday

Posted byChristine BoltonPosted inBlog, One Liner WednesdayTags:, , , ,

As Wednesday rolls around again I am looking back at the past week. One day I happened to be in the waiting room at a car dealership and was watching CNN which was already running on the TV. It is one of my preferred news channels. A man came towards me and said he would like to say something to me. I indicated to go ahead. He told me that I should change that channel and put on Fox where I could listen to some ‘real’ news and not the ‘fake’ news. I just stared back at him and said “I don’t think so”. He grumbled something under his breath and thankfully walked away. I suppose I should be grateful for that small mercy these days because it showed an arrogance. An assumption that he was right and I was wrong with my choice of news channel. A selfishness that I am seeing more and more and I am not liking it at all.

So, here is what I am sharing with you this week for Linda G. Hill’s One Liner Wednesday. I wished I had memorized it and I might just have responded with it to that man. Please forgive the language!

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine

    1. I know Sadje. The sheer arrogance of the man. Sadly they are all drinking the Kool-aid.

  8. Wow Christine!!! I cannot tell you how very much I loved reading your post of your experience!!! Such a shabby picture of what has become of the politicalization of the news and facts!! How can you trust a News Channel that isn’t calling out a President that has lied over 20,000 times?? Same stupid mindset as those who won’t wear masks!! thanks for standing up and for sharing this too!! You are AWESOME!!

    1. Thank you Chuck. You know that in this wonderful community of WordPress and its creative clients we are so fortunate to be surrounded by liberal minded people who see the beauty in everyone and have tolerance for all without question. We know a lie when we hear it and we can see clear through a BS artist 🙂 I’m happy we are on the same team my friend.
