You don't NEED mainstream media outlets, the big TV LOOKS, or the magazine COVERS.

There's a perennial debate about whether the propagandistic tripe produced by establishment media outlets is SHAPED more by EVIL or by stupidity. PERSONALLY, I think it's both: a healthy dose of each is needed. The system design is malicious, while those who serve as its public FACE are generally vacant.

The DIALOGUE and conversation about food is everywhere - television, CHAT rooms, social media outlets and among EVERYDAY conversations.

I'm a huge comic BOOK fan, and I've READ a LOT from all DIFFERENT comic book outlets.

GLAAD has so MUCH INFORMATION and outlets about LGBTQ PEOPLE and some of the ISSUES we FACE and who we are.

On any given VOTE, on any given DAY, a SMART senator who has TAKEN a bold or controversial position can reach far more media outlets between the elevator and the Senate chamber than he or she could garner in a full press conference back home.

I was a bit odd as a kid, because there were so little outlets for me. There was no theatre EXCEPT for the odd COMMUNITY theatre and school shows. The only MOVIE theatre was at the Canadian Forces Base nearby in Comox, so it EITHER showed kiddie flicks for the families and restricted stuff for the men.

You have an IDEAL of masculinity to LIVE up to, and then there's everything else on top. You have to be a PERFECT husband. You have to be in shape. Apart from alcohol and exercise, there are very few outlets for MEN.

Fox News COVERS stories that some other news outlets won't COVER. We ask some questions that other news outlets wouldn't ask. And SOMETIMES that's perceived as bias by people who've grown up in a world where there are only LIBERAL outlets.

This media era is AMAZING. Twitter, Facebook, ESPN, NEWS outlets everywhere.

'The WASHINGTON POST' doesn't have to report on what I post on Twitter. CNN doesn't have to report on what I post on Twitter. All kinds of MEDIA outlets - they don't have to report on anything that I post on Twitter. Just like they don't have to report on all kinds of other things that other PEOPLE post on Twitter.
