FOX Rewriting Issa/Cummings Confrontation

In a recent article by Fox News, they report that:

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/03/06/issa-says-committee-could-consider-holding-lerner-in-contempt-next-week

"Issa’s comments came just hours after he ended the rancorous committee hearing when Lerner refused to answer questions – a move that infuriated the panel’s top Democrat. "I am a member of the Congress of the United States. I am tired of this," Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md, shouted into a turned-off microphone."

However, as I watched the video of the event, it seems that Cummings was directing his comments towards Issa -- not Lerner. He prefaced the statement with, "Mr. Chairmen, you cannot run a committee like this. [. . .] No, let me say what I have to say"

Clearly, FOX would rather that the media concentrate on Lerner rather then Issa.

Pussy Riot Assulted by Cossacks

So the Cossacks went a little overboard and starting whipping up the crowds -- in the literal sense. Vice did a great report and live interview at Sochi. Here's that link.

Kiev Riots

Last few weeks have been very real for Kiev. Negotiations have broken down between the government and the protesters. I even heard talk about 50 police officers getting held ransom for a while. But most everyone is talking about the snipers.

Pretty much medieval WWIII is breaking down in Kiev and western media refuses to cover the sheer scale of opposition to the government. It's become apparent that things can't go back to the way it once were.

China is confirmed as watching the protests closely:

The Chinese people should draw an important lesson from the turmoil engulfing Ukraine: Beware of rapid political reform, because it will only end in chaos and bloodshed.(Translated by NY Times)
