It's not garbage. It's a semi-understandable jargon-based interface.:p

We getting into a philosophical war?

Surely if the work enables us to understand the biography then doesn't the biography then explicate the word, and so on ad infinitum meaning that the biographical subject can never truly elucidate the work because the biography is explicated by the work and the work illuminates the biography.
Therefore there can never be a work but merely the thought of the work in both reader-centered and author-centered viewpoints?:eek:

This is not philosophy. It's garbage apparently.;)

I think you forget world-context based readings.

Here are some examples of such readings:

In Canton, Ohio, a six-year-old boy who jumped from his bathtub and ran to a window to stop a school bus was suspended from his school for sexual harrasment. The boy had a doctor's appointment that morning and when his sister told him she saw the bus coming, the lad ran to the window and shouted for the driver to wait. Because he was nude, the shool ruledthathe had harassed youngsters on the bus and made him sign a paper admitting that he knew the nature of the charges against him.

Britain's Labour Government has authorised a pamphlet urging teachers to ban the children's game of musical chairs on the groundsthat it promotes aggression and allows the biggest and strongest children to win. Sue Finch, the booklet's author, says: "Musical statues is better because everyone wins." Let's get rid of all the damaging kids' games. Goodbye to pin the tail on the donkey (violence towards animals), jacks (sexist) and hopscotch (obvious mockery of limb-deficient disability).

New, nicer language for all! Mutilative elective surgery (the declawing of cats), pet guardians (pet owners), people of advanced chronology (the elderly), nondiscretionary fragrance (body odour), states of concern (the new term for rogue states.

A government job bureau in Walsall, England, banned "hard-working," "reliable," and "smart" employees on the grounds that they discriminate against the disabled. The phrase "commitment and a desire to succeed are vital" was banned for its insensitivity toward the lazy! Being reliable and smart, the conservatory government rescinded the ban.

What is the world coming to when there are so many world-context based readers out there?

Well if NZ commentators were unbiased they wouldn't get any viewing in NZ. If Australian commentators were unbiased then they wouldn't get any Australian viewers.

They are meant to be biased... just not too much. Slater is the too much.

SkySports is simply the worst though.
