Network Snakes

Journalists, generally speaking, are snakes speaking with forked tongues. The media, by and large, is a handmaiden of the Democratic party, relating as news the lies and slanders of the Democrat talking points. They are taught how to be snakes in journalism schools, and those who learn well get well paying jobs with the national papers and television networks.

 

 

When graduating from a school

Of journalism now,

The graduate full knows just what it takes

To get ahead in the profession

 Profs have shown him how

To get along with all the other snakes

The snake takes all the facts at hand

And weighs them on his scales

And then with forked tongue smiles them off to us

Believing as he does that we

Will swallow all his tales

And join him as he throws us off the bus

The quarry in his eyesight is

Republican of course

The snake knows how to plant the story well

Insinuation, slander and

Of course the unnamed source

The snake has many stories he can tell

What we need is a mongoose

Who will shake the snake to death

Restoring fair and balance to the news

The time will come when this will happen

Just don’t hold your breath

The snake is wily and won’t change his views
