NO NEWS..IS NO GOOD!
Since I nbegan this blog some 11 years
ago it's been titled "No News Is.." which is
based an the old saying :No news is good
news." Ironically somebody designated
September 11th as "No News Is Good News
Day!" Amazing that the date now happens
to mark one of the biggest news stories ever
here in the United States. What would millions
of Americans have thought or done had there
not been the wall to wall news coverage that
followed the terriorist attacks on the United
States? There were other September 11ths
that also warranted news attention through
the years. Here's just a few examples. September
11th 1609. Henry Hudson discovers the island
of Manhattan! September 11th, 1780. British
loyalists and indians attack a contingent of
American malitia near Little Nescopeck
Creek outside of what is now the city of
Hazleton. The resulting battle became known
as the Suragloaf Massacre! September 11th,
1941. Construction works begins on a new
government building in Washington,D.C.
It is to be called the Pentagon! These
historical events deserve to be remembered,
No news really isn't good. It's ignorance!
When there blackl smoke pouring from a
building not far from your home you probably
want to know what happened. The news, papers.
radio, and tv, will likely be able to tell you!
Hope you're well and that all YOUR NEWS,
is good!
