Time to brush up your media literacy: The new season of Mental Engineering will be starting soon on PBS.
ME is my alltime favorite locally-produced, nationally-televised advertising vivisection show!

Had the opportunity yesterday to watch a taping of our favorite ad-vivisection TV show Mental Engineering, which as you may know is hosted by our favorite DL irregular John Forde.
(Go here – scroll down — for a really crappy photo of John taken at the 331 Club during Kosapalooza in May. It’s really not any more crappy than the other photos I took that day, using the World’s Cheapest Digital Camera –$19.95 at Target!)
Among the panelists on the show, which will be airing sometime during the upcoming new season of ME — check the site for scheduling — was Brad Friedman, well-known blogger and go-to expert on the Diebold voting machine hijinks in recent elections.
UPDATE: Ooh! Brad gives us a mention today!
I was lucky enough to chat with Brad for a little while. Among many topics discussed, I got an update on the Truth About Ann Coulter documentary which is being made by Brad Blog guest commentator Dan Borchers. Borchers had hoped to have the documentary finished in time for the 06-06-06 release of Ann’s latest hatefest “Godless” , but it’s not quite done yet. Soon, tho.
I’m really looking forward to seeing it, especially because Borchers linked to one of my “Tild Newsstand” magazine covers from last fall and then contacted me asking if he could use the Comeuppance Magazine graphic in the documentary. Of course I said “Heck yeah!”
That one’s worth a revisit:
