JOAN RIVERS WHO DID NOT LEAD A FULL LIFE…AND THE INFERIOR MALAYSIAN MEDIA!
…MALAYSIAN
MEDIA REPORTING ON HER DEATH LIKE THERE ARE MANY MALAYSIANS WHO KNEW WHO SHE
WAS. NO, THEY DIDN’T AND THEY DIDN’T CARE.

Too bad Joan
Rivers died after saying how she supported the slaughter of the Palestinians by
the Zionists, and that’s not a joke.
She did
not lead a full life like many celebrities in America
who are stuck doing the same things again and again who did not that there is a
whole world out there beyond Hollywood Hills and even America .
Too bad too
because she could have done a lot more than she had done in all her Pre-Botox
and Botox years…
The American
singers and musicians are luckier that they can go to many countries to perform,
but not the television celebrities.
Even
American pseudo-wrestlers are now going out of the country with some wanting to
perform in Malaysia to get
some Malaysians to be their paymasters like their Hollywood
counterparts.
Too bad
too that Joan did so few things in her eighty-one years of existence in the
world, and ended up doing pretty much the same thing she had been doing all her
life and not being able to travel out of America to visit many countries to
broaden her horizon and to gain more experience and knowledge that way instead
of just talking about petty issues on what the American celebrities wear and
cracking jokes which are sometimes sick and crass.
It was a
life that she had wasted dealing with pretty much, issues which are petty while
the whole world is in turmoil with many who can’t even afford to have slippers
and some who could, do not have any use for them because their legs had been
ripped off from their bodies by some Smart Bombs.
The
Malaysian media are excited each time someone in Hollywood dies, even when they did not know
who she or he was when he was alive.
So they like to report on the death like they are people dear to them.
Despite
that most Malaysians just don’t care; what is reported by the media, especially
the English language newspapers, which do not attract the attention of the
average Malaysians.
The same
newspapers often report or carry syndicated reports on minor or small Hollywood types when they are involved in some sort of
controversy however petty.
This is
how inferior the Malaysian media are.
The
problem is that most, if not all of their editors are people who suffer from an
inferiority complex in not having lived or studied in America when they were
young so they had to pretend to be ‘Americanized’ in order for them to feel
belong or accepted.
And this
is no joke.
When I
heard on Malaysian television which reported her statement in the form of a
crawl, on how she was said to support the Zionist cause and the attack on Gaza , I felt somehow her time
was near, not because I knew she was already going on with her age, at
eighty-one years.
Despite
trying to look younger than her age, her demeanor could not hide it from many,
especially me, who had grown up knowing a bit about her when she was more active
on television that I had seen when I was living and studying in New York City.
But I
did not think too much about her until her sudden reappearance as a much older
woman who had tried to cheat on her age, by trying to work on her face and
hairstyle and clothes she was wearing.
Other
than that, she was the old woman that she should be, despite all these.
And most
Malaysians were not fully aware of who she was, not having been a familiar
personality until fairly recently when the program, ‘Fashion Police’ featuring
here was shown on satellite television that many Malaysians conveniently
dismiss as being irrelevant to their daily lives.
Generally,
Malaysians do not brag about how much they spend on their clothes. So few do
that, but it is at the insistence of the media, which tried to ape what they
see on American media.
However,
when Joan died, the Malaysian media tried to report it, but somehow, not many
cared, since they did not know who she was in the first place; even if they
knew, they would not be bothered with how she had tried to lead her life, and
so on…
There
was not even any call from the most vocal anti-Zionists in Malaysia for ‘Fashion Police’ to be banned from
being shown on satellite television in Malaysia .
For me,
the timing of Joan’s making the statement about how she supported the cause of
the Zionists, did not come to any Malaysian as a shock.
Not many
knew why she said so, even when they were later informed by some crawlers on
the same television how Joan Rivers was originally known as Joan Alexandra
Molinsky, a Russian Jew whose parents had immigrated to America , so she
was a first-generation American.
What
many Malaysians especially the Muslim-Malaysians wanted to know was why didn’t
Joan go to the Zionist state and support the cause of the Zionists personally,
instead of sitting in comfort in America and issuing the statement
to support them?
Somehow I
knew or felt the end was near for Joan.
And true
enough few days later I read the reports in the crawlers on the same television
station how Joan had been warded in the Mount Sinai
Hospital in Manhattan , New York
City for what seemed to be a minor surgery on her vocal chord that many thought
she was going to be released from the hospital in no time.
But not
me.
I felt
somehow the end was near for her. But I did not pray for such calamity to
happen to her. I just knew it would happen. And sure enough it did.
The next
time I read about her was the announcement in another crawler on how she had
died.
Did the
prime minister of the Zionist state of Israel also offer his condolences
to Joan’s family on her death or to thank her for her undivided support for the
Zionist state?
If there
is a country outside of America
that mourns her death, it is not Malaysia ,
but Israel ,
a country she was not known to have visited when she was alive.
