I am a big fan of watching the governmental news programs, I watch CNN MSNBC and FOX. A critic that I really liked on CNN was Howard Kurtz, known for calling out many officials when they are wrong, I really enjoy reading his theories about Obama and many other topics. I am sad to say that he was recently fired from his job for accusing Jason Collins (first active pro athlete to announce he is gay) of not being truthful when it came to having a finacee. Kurtz was wrong about what he said and gave invalid information calling out this athlete. Even after his wrong doings, and me defending equal rights, I still really enjoyed his philosophies on the Daily Beast on CNN.

My favorite movie critic is Anthony Oliver Scott. He is a writer for the New York times, he is an amazing writer seeing as his parents were both professors. Keeping the Scott brood's educated leanings alive and well, Mr. New York Times Movie Reviewer (working alongside Manohla Dargis) represents a younger breed of critical prestige, he's only 46-years-old. I love to hear from people that I can relate to because I do not think people above the age of 55 really understand this new wave of media and technology in movies.

I am an avid twitter user, and I find this site to be extremely useful when trying to find out about all types of media. Chris Cantalini is my favorite music critic that I follow on twitter, he is young, down to earth, and seems to make sense out of good or bad music, and explains the flaws or advantages of each song very in depth. He also talks about and makes his followers aware of certain music festivals going on around te nation, and critiques them based on previous performances and if they will be comparable to other concerts the bands have performed in. I really enjoy reading his blogs that he uploads to twitter, and I would recommend them to anyone who enjoys alternative music.

TV SHOWS and stuff
The shows I've been watching since school has been out are Mad Men, Game of Thrones, and Trailor park boys.
I end up watching a lot of NBA basketball because my roommates love to watch it, but the TV show that I watch mostly because my roommates like it is Storage Wars.
My guilty no-goes that i don't watch are shows like Modern Family. I have only heard great things about it but have never gotten around to it. I hear it is very funny and family appropriate.
My guilty pleasures are shows like Keeping Up With the Kardashians. My girlfriend loves to watch it but the only reason I really tolerate it is because there are many pretty women on this show all the time.
I have many all time favorites such as Breaking Bad, Trailer Park Boys, and Walking Dead. I always watch re-runs of these shows. I think they are very clever and in depth in the way they are written, all around they are great to watch, and I would recommend them to anyone.
Shows that I no longer watch consist of How I Met Your Mother, and Arrested Development, I have seen every episode of both but I have for some reason strayed away from them.
I was never a big fan of River Monsters on Animal Planet but now I have begun to watch every new episode. Jeremy Wade is a fishing monster himself.
A show that I would rather eat charcoal than watch would have to be Dance Moms. I have no idea why anyone would want to watch 45 year old women fight about their daughters being the best dancer in the group. LOLOLOL it just seems dumb.
Creating my own category... Coolest shows to watch visually: Planet Earth, North America, Life, etc. These are the shows that I am truly amazed by, the shots that these film makers are able to capture are absolutely stunning.
