The following twisted comment stands out for its non-informing propagandist kiss up of Goldman-Sachs from the Guardian's Richard Wachman (link above)
Reborn Masters of the Universe

"Goldman is thriving, but it suffered a near-death experience and might have sunk if not for the intervention of government," says one corporate governance activist."

Like -it wasn't the Goldman Sachs branch of government Secretary of the Treasury Hank Paulson who did the deal -biggest private heist of taxpayer money in the history of the world -who then manipulated profits to justify distribution of a at least $11,000,000,000 of that money to its own employees?

It would be more accurate to state that '… might have sunk if not for Goldman Sachs' merger with the U.S. Treasury Department of the U.S. Government to perform a heist of American taxpayers on TV through the US Congress for $750,000,000,000 to the accompaniment of the PPT Paulson/Bernanke stock market manipulation up and down to claim, fraudulently, public support, with the right to distribute that amount of money above the law any way that he, Paulson, one single human being, (with absolutely no record of public service other than that of Treasury Secretary straight from Goldman Sachs long enough to oversee the scheme to make itself King of the Hill), personally chose to and secretly.'

These shady distortions for Corporatist (see fascist) propaganda seem required for employment in the mainstream media.

As a Vet nurse, I can tell you that the little dog is suffering.

She is chained and forced to feed 3 animals, at least, that would normally have been weaned by their weight.

I know that you thought this was cute, but my guess is that the dog is probably already dead or suffering terribly.

This is a Chinese Zoo, this is the country that serves Dog at the dinner table.

This dog may also be food for the lions in more ways than one. Disgusting site! Please take it down.

There have been protests to the Telegraph as well.
Regards.
