is it just me, or does it seem somewhat ego-centric to write a news story about yourself. also quoting yourself in the story numerous times....
if i didn't know better i'd think this was some sort of counselors advice to mark. "write good things about yourself for everyone to read, you'll feel better about yourself"

I'm not an idiot, but I play one on the radio.

Here... this will kill it again:
Andy:
I will be listening tomorrow....
Best wishes on the show!!!
But you have one critic already.
Spike Nesmith "His Royal Alien" a Scottish citizen who has refused to become a US citizen has already trashed you on www.wvBroadcasting.net.
Spike posted, "Oh lord, you lost me at "hardcore patriot". I've got no time for the uber allez crowd either here or anywhere else."
I'm proud to be an American Patriot... Those that are not are free to take a plane or boat back to where they came from....

This happens constantly....here's how to spot it:
Arp's Fifth Law – When you see indefinite nouns like "experts," "many," "some," "officials," etc in "mainstream" media, read them "I and people like me..."
Arp's Sixth Law – When you see indefinite adverbs like "may," "might," "apparently," etc in "mainstream" media, know that the "article" is actually an opinion piece! ("I think that (blah blah blah), so I'll write that but disclaim it, 'blah blah blah may/might'....")
Arp's Seventh Law – When you see a supposed "reporter" presume the emotions generated by a hypothetical outcome in a person he or she hasn't even spoken to, you are reading an opinion piece! ("I would feel such and such, so I'll write, 'So and so is undoubtedly feeling such and such today, following yesterday's blah blah blah.....")
The press constantly writes its own biography into everything! Don't be the least bit surprised when you spot it.
