We can look at both sides of this argument, but I don't think any video really answers any questions concerning the moon-landing as good as this one does:

do people not realize that this is already hapening... in a small way at least...

for example... there' was a major terrorist attack on India a few weeks ago, but all the news was concerned about was what kind of dog president elect Obama was going to get when in the whitehouse...

the US people are like children..
and it's like there's a child about to see a dead body so the parent pulls out a sock puppet for them to look at instead....

what sad is the child ends up not even noticing the bloody corpse...


there should be a commity (something like the FCC) that's in charge of making sure news coverage does what it's supposed to.. every time there's a story of something stupid, like where the prez's daughter got her hair cut or that ketty perry got a new tatoo, when something actually newsworthy (oh like say 200 people were slaughtered for no other reason then they were at a certain hotel) they should be fined a ridiculous sum of money...

Maybe he means Fox, I don’t know I don’t watch their news. But no wait it was terrorism so surely Fox would showing lots of it, probably along with some impartial talking heads suggesting we nuke brown people as it’s the only was to prevent it happening again and save the children.

Lets stop fighting and just be thankful that NASA's need to rapidly solve complex calculations eventually resulted in machines that allow us to bring up a billion vagina pics and twice as many boobies in seconds.

That kind of world isnt all bad.

Actually porn has probably done more to progress technology than space exploration :)
