The Province of Ontario, in Canada, held an election on Wednesday October 10th, 2007 to see who would form the next Provincial Government. The Liberals had been in power.

Do you remember when news was actually news? Do you remember what life was like before Western Culture’s fascination and obsession with the idea that celebrity “fluff stuff” is actually news? If you’re really young, ask your parents about the days before cable news and the internet.
Back then, in the good ‘ole days of media, before it routinely began to whore itself out to the highest paying “fluff stuff” the most often heard complaint was, “Why don’t they ever talk about some good news?”
Heavens, does society even long for good news anymore? I mean the more “fluff stuff” dirt on the latest celebrity (read human being with problems and pain) scandal is all the rage.
