NEWS MEDIA WOLVES <\/p>\n

by Bill Kochman<\/p>\n

The news media is a pack of wolves,
\nIt’s clear that many have no heart,
\nThey’ll do anything for publicity,
\nAnd absolutely rip your life apart.<\/p>\n

They are pros at digging up sludge,
\nThey’re like sharks smelling blood,
\nBe very careful, stay clear of them,
\nThey’ll drag your name thru the mud.<\/p>\n

Dogs without mercy and no remorse,
\nThey’ll chew you up and spit you out,
\nExaggerating stories to make a buck,
\nCaring little what the truth’s about.<\/p>\n

They’ll take what you say, mix it up,
\nTwisting and perverting real facts,
\nWhen you read it, you’ll be shocked,
\nWatch out when they lower their axe.<\/p>\n

Unscrupulous and as sly as any fox,
\nThey are in it just to get a good story,
\nIgnore their deceptive, fake smiles,
\nAll they really want is byline glory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
