Sound Off for Dec. 9, 2023
Switch gears
The Biden crime family is starting to get a taste of their own medicine. You continue to print negative stuff on Trump. How about printing some on Biden?
Not much to it
The Republican debates hit at an idiotic low and are a joke because it isn’t really any kind of debate. Some Republicans are tired of biting their tongues and embarrassed at the antics of Trump, who hides from any debate.
Not so smart
I looked at professors as having smarts and sense. Guess they can be smart without common sense or maybe nutty as a fruitcake. Shooting up a school?
WLOX-TV thoughts
I agree with the writer about the WLOX anchor chewing gum, which is not appropriate. Perhaps there should be a staff meeting to remind the entire team about what is appropriate and what is not. I realize the topic about clothing attire has come up before in Sound Off but apparently it has not been addressed at the station. I cannot be the only one who has just recently noticed the very tight, form-fitting leggings, with short blouses, that leaves nothing to the imagination.
Sports coverage
I’ve never been a sports fan and now I have one more reason. In the news recently was a report about an overpaid, oversexed, overrated football player who got a girl pregnant, refused to marry her, and beat her up. These are our national heroes?
Slow melt
The world’s largest iceberg, 1,500 square miles in size and 1,300 feet thick, is drifting from Antarctica to the Southern Ocean. It sheared off the ice shelf in 1986 but was stuck on the sea bed until now. For years environmental activists have pointed to iceberg shearing as both proof of disastrous climate change and predictor of rising sea levels. Actually, the effect on sea levels is minimal. NASA’s Sea Level Change Team reports floating ice contributed 1.1 millimeter to sea level between 1994 and 2017.
The border
Our Southern border crisis is truly a humanitarian crisis for both North Americans and South Americans. South Americans at the border are desperate to save their families and North Americans south of Canada aren’t even willing to help their fellow countrymen.
