Media Bias

Follow along, carefully, unlike so many of my “contemporaries,” I make no claims to be totally objective. While I rarely acknowledge pertinent details in my chart, I do openly admit to being an 11/28 Sagitttarius. Sure.

That’s not a myth.

However, anything else, is subject to question. Still, In my mateial, I’ve been quite open about my bias – cf. Barefoot Astrology, et al.

In Austin, last weekend, rain, motorsports, and football were constant background noise. Somebody won, somebody lost, and the rain quit falling, eventually.

Me? I had a strong weekend, but I tend to be busy in Austin, as I’ve been at this for a long time, and Austin is home turf.

A news item caused a minor sensation, and giggles amongst the girls. Most of my immediate Austin Sisters are die-hard UT Austin Burnt Ornage fans. Although the term “fan” doesn’t convey the proper level of excitement and ardor.

The headlines, the news, and the sound bite?

“Longhorns on a two-game winning streak!”

This is Texas Sports. Hyperbole is a huge factor. I’m not exaggerating – local sports and especially the University of Texas Football, always a big deal.

If it wasn’t bantered about as often, in an 18-hour news cycle, I wouldn’t have noticed. Any other team? Win two games in a row? That’s two games in the win category. That’s all.

Full Moon Time in Scorpio! (Moon in Taurus).

“Longhorns on a two-game winning streak!”

Go Horns. Just, I’m thinking, is this local Media Bias?
