AUDIO/VIDEO POST. THE MYSTERIOUS WORLD. THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE. PT 1.

WHAT A SHAME- A look at the low points in the modern media. HUMILIATION TELEVISION; IT DOESN'T GET ANY LOWER THAN THIS. PT 13.

So if what we are watching on TV Today, at Least in Terms of SO-CALLED "REALITY TELEVISION," is a return to the Concept of "BREAD AND CIRCUSES" that was part of the ROMAN EMPIRE, why does it appeal to so many people?

It may be Difficult for some fans of these shows to accept, but it could be the Desire to see a PATHETIC OR UNAPPEALING INDIVIDUAL SUFFERING, AND THAT NO MATTER HOW BAD THE VIEWERS LIFE IS, AT LEAST ITS NOT THEM ON THE SCREEN.

To Add to this Image, a HOST is tossed in. What Are they they there for?
After viewing a number of examples, their function seems to be:

-  To Make the Guests seem more Reprehensible.

-  To Fan the Flames, by Encouraging More Conflict,
including Physical Altercations.

-  To Show the Audience that They can Rescue the 

Guests from Themselves. Of Course Help is offered 

after Thoroughly Humiliating and Demeaning those on Stage.

Remember, These shows are Promoting what you are seeing as TRUE TO LIFE,

NOT CHARACTERS ACTING FROM A SCRIPT.  ( How much of this is actually True
is Very Suspect, and Accusations of Fictional Dramas being played off as REALITY RUN RAMPANT.)

However, what does it say about the Regular Viewers of such Material?  Is the Pain, Anguish, and Emotional Suffering appearing before Their Eyes somehow CATHARTIC, when They See: 

-  Members of the Audience Chant and Ridicule Those who are the Focus of the Days Program. 

-  See Individuals in a better Economic Situation then They, Suffer Emotionally

and Physically.

-  The Anger, Hate and Turmoil They may feel, reduced to an OBJECT OF PITY

AND RIDICULE, WHERE THE ONLY THING THEY TAKE AWAY FROM THE 

EPISODE IS AN ATTITUDE OF, "AT LEAST THAT'S NOT ME."

Some will CRITICIZE me for taking issue with Subject Matter that is just a GUILTY PLEASURE, AND SHOULDN'T BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.

I'm Sorry to say This, but anything placed on TV that:

-   Uses Live Film of Minor Children to Create Tension and Confrontation,

ESPECIALLY AMONG PARENTAL FIGURES...

-   Pretends to Solve Complex Emotional Problems with 15- 20 Minutes

of POP PSYCHOLOGY...

-   Encourages or Creates Situations that May Lead to Physical Violence...

-  Opens and Closes with Monologues by the Host, Telling everyone 

how Wise and Benevolent They are...

... AMONG THE MOST DISGUSTING AND DISTASTEFUL FORMS OF PROGRAMMING, THAT ARE OF NO CONCEIVABLE BENEFIT TO ANYONE, ACCEPT MAYBE THOSE WHO BUY ADVERTISING DURING THE AIRING OF THE SHOW.

THE MYSTERIOUS WORLD. THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE. PT 3.

(NEWSPAPER ACCOUNT CONTINUES.)

The story told by First Mate Martin of the JUPITER, regarding the investigation of the Hold on the ALBATROSS, has caused quite a stir in this Seaside Metropolis.

Boston Maritime Officials have not commented on this Testimony, but sources say they are quite perplexed.

Here are portions of the Further Sworn Testimony given by Martin, the facts which were affirmed by the two crewmen who accompanied him. This concerns the exploration of the Hold.

Martin- "As we went below, a strong odor of Decay was noticed.  There was very little water, so she still seemed watertight.  The smell was terrible, like rotting food left out in the Sun.  I sent Drury Forward, and Lyons Aft, while I remained Amidships.  The Cargo, if there ever was any, was gone.  There were a few mostly empty Barrels turned over, but nothing else.  It was, as if, she been unloaded in a a hurry. All we found were scraps of what seemed to be well cooked Beef and Mutton, sticking to the insides of the Barrels."

Martin was questioned as to the General Condition of the Hold.  "Well, my Mates and I did notice a couple of things.  There was a Green Type of Growth, almost like Mold, covering much of the Deck and Walls.  It seemed to be everywhere, and was starting to cover the stairs leading up to the Main Deck."

When asked if he was sure that it was Mold, and nothing else, Martin replied, "Well I don't know what else to call it. But, when I touched it, it didn't feel right. It was warm, and the surface felt like Skin, Hard and Rough.  I know I said it seemed like Mold, but I won't swear an Oath to it."

When asked if he had anything more to add about the condition of the Hold, Martin had hesitated.  When prompted again by Officials, he replied: "Maybe it's was just Nerves, but I always had a feeling of being watched, at least when we were below. I know your probably thinking that I was spooked, or a bit daft. But Drury and Lyons felt the same thing.  Never was I more relieved then when we returned to the Main Deck, with the Feel of the Sun on my face.  You want to know what was in the Hold?  The Look, Smell and Feeling of Death."
