Well I decided to call Ryanair to make a complaint about the way they were insulting Che Geuvara by putting berties face on him. I rang their head office in Dublin. It was Sunday just gone. There was a message recorded which I listened to. It gave me a number to call to deal with a human. I'll put the exact numbers here later. I was informed this would cost 1.75 in euro from ROI or 1 pound from the UK to call. The message clearly stated (as I noted a little later) that the number was for an irish office. ... read full story / add a comment

U2 have announced their second concert in Ireland for this summer. They are doing this through their promoter, MCD. (MCD also promoted the elevation tour) It's interesting that they name their album "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb", and then use MCD, which is owned by Clear Channel. Clear Channel is closely aligned to the Bush administration, and support for the Iraq war exists throughout many of its radio stations in the United States. Actions ranging from bulldozing Dixie Chicks albums to censoring Rage Against the Machine songs have been taken by Clear Channel stations. ... read full story / add a comment

We live in the time of soundbytes. & translators. & interpreters. & thinktanks. & billionaire philanthropist pacifists with major stock in arms corps and undeclared interests in narcotic routes and the fine post-graduates who work for them spinning tissues of deceit and benovelance. ... read full story / add a comment
