The news media is a bunch of hypocrites filled with hidden political agendas.

I attribute some of the Rolex disdain media image on the novelty song, "Would Jesus wear a Rolex On His Television Show?" by Ray Stevens.

That's because the media is run by socialist liberals.

The Post and Daily news regularly use "Rolex" as a fill in or code for a self absorbed self indulgent jerk. As they always like to say "Tony upper side nabe" stuff like that is written all the time and that's what I read picking up the rag maybe three or four times a year!
