Worth a thousand words (a poem)
This is indeed a marvelous age.
You can squint up your eyes and act the sage
By reporting the news just as you see it.
There are plenty of outlets if you'll just agree it
Is wise to look down on the middle classes
As you seek to educate the masses.
The truth of your impartings need not matter.
You've been blessed with superior gifts and gray matter.
And if your words are too far above them
Just doctor some pictures. The media will love them!
