Gloria Steinem's Birthday???

OK...... who is Gloria Steinem???? I was looking for something to write about and it wasn't until my sister said who is Gloria Steinem and why do we care about her birthday that I realized I had an idea. (Even though this blog was due by midnight-so I am losing points while I am typing) But it really hit me-The media really tells us what they feel is important!!! Media is owned by corporate America and nothing is put in front of us with out a reason. It pisses me off for them to take advantage of our ignorance!!! Families all over think that the "killer tube" has something of impertinence and great significance to share with the rest of the world. But NO they want to control your every waking moment you are alive and have a half of a dime to spend.

Gloria Steinem just happened to catch this rage I really have nothing against specifically but I do have something to say about her birthday being on every Internet media site. What has she do that immediately effects me???? Why would I consider her birthday important??? That is what should be relayed not that fact that she is now 75 years old-my Nana is 82!!!!!!

I want that in the news she has raised 6 children she works full time, cuts her own grass, and cooks every Saturday a full course dinner just for all of the family to come together. That is worthy of news, a student that has broken unbelievable boundaries and is the first generation of college graduates is worthy of news!
