news troll

Someone who says inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic statements in a news broadcast or at least on television or radio broadcasts, with the primary intent of provoking listeners into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion. This is done to distract from the actual issues and to get the News Troll's name repeated in other news forums or shows in order to remain relevant and to sell their books to their listening audience, the people who want to believe that the ridiculous things that News Trolls state are true .
News Trolls like Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Shawn Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, or other supposed "news" media commentators that actually spread propaganda and misinformation campaigns instead of actual news stories for people that don't consider reality good enough for them and/or believe that critical thinking and facts are either "liberal biased", or "left wing". Anyone trying to instill fear, anger, or distract from the real issues of the day is a News Troll.

new slaver

the new breed of 'plantation owner' and/or business'person' who takes full advantage of those with 'lesser' social status and education in order to keep their business maximizing profits!!

one would THINK by offering a decent wage AND benefits, it would prove to be a more intelligent move as regards to worker performance as well as loyalty, but this is a completely foreign concept to those who pray to the 'church of the greenback', i.e. the 'folding greens'!!
that business won't pay a decent living wage, practically expecting employees to PAY THEM to work there!! (response:) yeah, i know all about it!! i'm super-tired of these new slavers!!

john started his business and appreciated those who helped him build it into something of substance, he was happy to share the profits, made plenty for himself, and had no desire to be a new slaver.

jane hated to go to the vertical plantation everyday, to work for those new slavers
