The Royal Academy of Media Watchery
I’ve noticed on my travels that it’s often the biggest frauds who put the most official sounding names on things.
Like John Beyer, that clown who’s claimed the name ‘Media Watch’ and secured it exclusively for the narrowest of agendas, or a publicity-hungry quack who calls a school for other quacks something like the Royal Global Academy of Alternative Medicine College.
It’s a worrying trend, and I’d hate to be mistaken for any of these people… so I’m calling my new project The Media Watch Rock-a-Hula:

Don’t make that face. My mind is made up.
(Besides, I can delete this later… like it never happened.)
