Sheila Orr, Christy Clark Apologist(practice what you preach Sheila)

Katie Hyslop had an article posted at the Tyee online news magazine, the gist of her column was that Christy Clark was being treated unfairly by media and in a sexual way, and today ex federal Liberal Sheila Orr on with Bill Good echoed those sentiments in a very partisan selective way...

 http://thetyee.ca/News/2013/03/22/Christy-Clark-Coverage-Sexist/

Where to start, let`s start with Katie Kyslop`s article in the Tyee, as a longtime reader and commenter most of the names who commented on the story are familiar to me, and yes maybe those people dwell more on the left of center universe but for the most part they are fair with writers, stories are judged more on content, on factuality, on truth..

The comments were 100% against Katie Hyslop`s premise,  there wasn`t one comment that I read that believed Christy Clark was being treated unfairly, comments were like an echo chamber, commenter after commenter stated that Christy Clark isn`t being respected as premier designate because she`s a walking, talking national embarrassment, shows no leadership, Christy Clark`s huffs, puffs and blusters inane statements, Christy has been caught lying, cheating, she`s time and time again lacking in data, detail, her grasp of the English language, her phrasing and constant use of..

"Ya know, I think, I,...I...I...Ya know, I think"

I`ve heard better speakers aged in their teens than that of Christy Clark..

Katie Hyslop`s most overt error in her selective column was....

She failed to mention Christy Clark`s admitted love of the offensive show Manswers, a grotesque tee-hee show about farting in bottles and saving for a later date, a show about female breasts crushing beer cans..Katie didn`t mention other radio interviews on FM radio where Christy Clark talked about Mr. Skin(a nude celebrity picture web site), talked about strip poker in the legislature, topics of conversation that Christy Clark brought up herself.

Katie Hyslop mentioned Diamond Isinger, a 19 year young girl who was featured on Liberal friendly media a couple of months ago, Diamond was playing the same sexist victim card in defending Christy Clark, Laila Yuile put Diamond Isinger to shame.

 http://lailayuile.com/2013/03/10/and-where-is-ms-isingers-indignation-now/

 Laila Yuile called the young Ms Diamond out for failing to respond to Christy Clark telling a big audience that Mark Marissen had a weak limp penis, the crowd roared in laughter as Christy Clark suggested Mark Marissen was a bad lover, a limp penis and that was grounds for divorce, Mark Marissen is now known throughout the media and bloggosphere as a man(?) who not only couldn`t shoot straight his pea shooter is a Nerf toy, a disgusting thing for a premier designate to state in public, could you imagine Gordon Campbell or Adrian Dix stating their ex-wife was pathetic in bed, They would be lambasted in the media.

Katie Hyslop also failed to mention that Diamond Isinger has joined the BC Liberal election team..

And for that reason Katie Hyslop`s article was a complete failure, I never went to journalism school, I just started posting comments about 6 years ago, started writing articles 3 years ago, even I know the importance of being accurate, writing all relevant details, for once labeled a one-sided spinner all credibility goes out the window...

Katie Hyslop should be ashamed for her overt omissions, even the Tyee should bow their head in disgrace for not sending the article back for a do-over..And at a least, Tyee should have placed Katie`s article under the category .."incomplete drivel"  

And now to Sheila Orr`s Christy Clark love-in infomercial with Billy Good on cknw radio today..

All I can say is WOW...For a so-called professional speaker Sheila failed, and Sheila Orr called Alex G Tsakumis names on air, she called AGT nasty, bile, said he was hiding behind his computer..

AGT speaks his mind, and he most certainly doesn`t hide behind a computer, agree or disagree with AGT all you like, he must be given the same respect that Sheila Orr demands of other media.

Here Sheila Orr was complaining about the media not giving Christy Clark any respect and what does she do..She slammed Norman Specter for earlier in the day saying the BC Liberals are flailing away, desperate and incoherent, Norman specter who is as rightwing as you can get, Sheila Orr wasn`t done, she called AGT nasty names on air, Sheila also slammed David Schreck for criticizing Christy Clark for the inappropriate attire she wore in the Legislature on the first day she attended after winning a very tight contest against David Eby in the Point Grey byelection, David Schreck was correct in his assessment of Chrity`s attire, the proof is in the pudding, after Schreck`s rebuke Clark changed her legislative wardrobe, the cleavage wear was put away, never to be seen again.

Does Sheila Orr not get it, how hypocritical she sounded, for Sheila Orr to lambaste media for her perceived degrading of Christy Clark while simultaneously doing the exact same thing on air, in a public forum, with neither Norman Specter, AGT or David Schreck having a chance to defend themselves, Sheila Orr is guilty of what she accused others of doing..

Or how about Christy Clark getting caught lying her face off on CBC radio, no mention of that by Sheila Orr, is that leadership, or is that just another Christy Clark classic blooper.

Sheila Orr was spinning for Christy Clark, her spinning was so over the top I had a flash back to Linda Blair in the movie The Exorcist..

Now let`s be clear, Alex Tsakumis and I are not friends, probably never will be, however, AGT has broken many stories, he can write with flair and for that he has my respect, yes he can be very inflammatory, controversial and foul-mouthed, nobody is forced to read his articles, those that go there do so willingly, including Sheila Orr who reads AGT regularly, she of course doesn`t admit it, she lied to herself and the radio listeners, if AGT was just as inflammatory and controversial towards Adrian Dix Sheila Orr would be in praise of him.

Sheila Orr was a disgrace today, plain and simple, a disgrace..

I am hard pressed to give Bill Good any credit, however he did respond back in dispute of Sheila Orr`s false claims on a couple of occassions ... 

Sheila Orr in full spin mode made this claim. Sheila Orr said and I quote.

"Christy Clark won the ship-building contract for British Columbia"

Bill Good chimed in that.."No she did not"...It was an interesting exchange between the two.

 And by the way, shipbuilding jobs, 20 months ago Seaspan was awarded something, no ships, no jobs, nothing committed, no steel cut either in the Irving shipyards or here in BC..And there won`t be any jobs there until the lead-up to the next federal election in 2015...Sheesh Sheila Orr!

Bill Good then talked about a dinner engagement he had with a large group of people, Bill Good asked those in attendance to raise their hands if they thought the BC 2013 budget was balanced, 149 of the 150 people in attendance left their hand down, the one hand that thought the budget was balanced was a retiring BC Liberal MLA(unknown as to who)..

 Shelia Orr then chirped up about there being different ways to balance the budget, more partisan spin and bluster backed up with tainted hyperbole.

The only phone calls that Bill Good`s producer allowed through were BC Liberal radio trolls, the usual bunch, all of those who called claimed Christy Clark was real leadership material..I almost lost my breakfast.

Funny though, Jon McComb in his 3:00 pm to 3:30 pm segment discussed Sheila Orr`s fantastic spun claims, he disagreed, Jon McComb basically said the exact same thing all the commenters said under Katie Hyslop`s poorly written article...And.

The callers who called into Jon McCombs segment all called Christy Clark "a ditz, a non-leader, a national embarrassment and not leadership material, over her head".

Two radio segments, two different radio hosts, two different producers allowing phone calls through, I got to thinking about temporal logic and two different universes, different dimensions with opposite realities, the difference was night and day stark.

Sheila Orr today on radio was a disgrace to both female and male voters, a disgrace to politicians everywhere, a shameful performance that indeed needed to be called out for what it was, desperation that reeked of desperation.

 Here`s a link to the audio vault at cknw...

First isten to Billy Good`s segment with Sheila Orr first,..March 25th..10:30 a.m. to 11:00 am..

Then listen to Jon McComb`s segment, same topic, completely different results.(March 25th/3:06 p.m. to 3:21 p.m.).

Looks friends and readers, I try to be even-handed with my stories, I support Thomas Mulcair and Adrian Dix, I have written that if there was a Federal election today Justin Trudeau would be prime minister, charm, good looks and hair matter, it`s an unfortunate truth..


I`ve written extensively on LNG, stories filled with facts and data, written on BC Liberal scandals, on salmon, on life,..And on death.

What qualifies as journalism today in British Columbia is pathetic, when a self-taught writer and ex-construction guy like Grant G shows more professionalism than trained writers in the biggest media outfits in the country..Well.
