WHOA! Action 19 news nails Bush!

[AWD]

They STARTED with the protesters (oh, and by the way...they showed me and my bullhorn yelling "Bush Lied Soldiers Died"), and they even came BACK to the protesters, mentioning millions of jobs lost.

Hell, they even showed the motorcade passing us. The boos were LOUD, and the news actually showed it!

Regarding the Bush supporters, they even....get this....said that "the crowd was considerably quiter than most of Bush's hand-picked audiences".

DAMN!

1. MOST excellent!

32. WOIO Channel 19 is CBS affiliate

Here is a link to WOIO web page. Many clickable links to various stories. BTW, I had to go to the Post Office at the airport today since it was the only one open being Labor Day, just in time to see the multitude of limos and support vehicles being loaded into a gigantic C-130 (?) cargo plane. Thankfully I missed the traffic congestion due to chimpys security roadblocks. There had to be 25 support vehicles in addition to the 2 limo's. What a waste of tax money. http://www.woio.com/

2. "hand picked audiences" ???

They really said that? So they acknowledge that even his supporters are fake, eh?

[AWD]

8. I taped it

The 6pm news had the coals burning hot for Shrub's ass.

[liberalhistorian]

21. I saw that, too, AWD, and I was just as surprised as you!

Since that particular news channel isn't known for "fair and balanced" reporting when it comes to political matters. Maybe the scales really are finally starting to fall from people's eyes!

[AWD]

23. Missed you today

...I was hoping you'd make the trip south.

[Catshrink]

28. Mr. Candidate: watch the potty mouth!

I'm just kidding. Sort of. This is an open forum and I don't want anything to come back to bite you in your butt.

[AWD]

33. Darn

Tried to edit it to read "hiney", but too late.

Thanks.

[Catshrink]

36. Oh well

no harm done. I'm having a heck of a time watching my mouth at school -- I am a bonafide potty mouth and struggle all the time. I told one of my classes that they were acting like horses-asses. It just came out. Could have been worse.

We should start a group: PMA's -- Potty Mouth Anonymous.

[wryter2000]

3. Way to go, AWD.

Go for it!

[sistersofmercy]

4. You made my day!

[never cry wolf]

5. You're on the front lines buddy,

[chimpymustgo]

9. Wow. Great job.

10. Channel 3 gave the names of the morality police

a.k.a. middle-finger lady.

I taped CH 5 coverage, watched 3.

Glad they caught the "BLSD" chant!

[AWD]

11. I taped Faux local

..and WOIO Action 19.

Middle-finger lady got on?? Oh, good. She was so full of family values.

[Kolesar]

12. Channel 5 showed skeptical attendees at the Bush lunch

One woman said it was all "just rhetoric". Zzzzing!

[AWD]

13. When the OHIO news does this...

...it's HUGE!

We're winning, people. Take the country BACK!

[never cry wolf]

14. I guess SpikeTrees was there to

and his interview got aired on Cleveland Ch. 5

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=102&topic_id=92664

you guys :yourock:

[AWD]

19. Great!

I know he was excited, but they aired the interview!!!! Fabulous for him!

[Plaid Adder]

15. Someone must upload this somehow.

Please? For those of us who are not living in Ohio, and will only hear all about what a triumph it was for Bush and his happy union supporters?

C ya,

The Plaid Adder

[Career Prole]

22. Yes! Please! I wanna see it too! n/t

[proud patriot]

16. Thanks for the report AWD

:D

[cmd]

17. Faux had * at the "picnic"

and interviewed a few people who were there. Later they showed Sherrod Brown speaking at the park. The giant rat was in the background.

[AWD]

18. They showed the Giant Rat???

YES!!!!!

[never cry wolf]

24. What is the giant rat? excuse my ignorance. n/t

[AWD]

29. Inflatable

They inflated a giant 20-foot rat at the rally to signify Bush.

[nostamj]

38. there are GIANT RATS all over NYC

protesting union-busting construction projects, etc....

[never cry wolf]

40. Oh yeah

i have seen them at constructions sites here in Chi, thanks!! That's great the rat was there!!

[slor]

20. GREAT JOB ALL!

I live in Cinti, OH. And this is GREAT news for a TV station to give a NON PRO BUSH stance. GOOD HUNTING!

[saline]

25. all the national news

shows began with the bush speech and mentioned that the union he was speaking too was traditionally more republican and had to be bussed in. No mention of protest but lots of dem speeches got on the segment too, it was good.

[Rose Siding]

26. Write them!

Encourage them for doing something right. It should have been their job all along, but tell them they nailed this one!

http://www.woio.com/Global/category.asp?C=6166&nav=3Nic

(this IS the station, right?)

[AWD]

30. Yes

[Kolesar]

31. A news clip and a pic with Bush's trademark "chimp face"

There is some mention of hundreds of protestors.
edit, this link: http://www.woio.com/Global/category.asp?C=4397&nav=0rd1

[never cry wolf]

34. That was the noon news

I would imagine that you could follow the same link later and see the 6 o'clock news.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

27. Way to go!

I know if I want to find out what is really happening, I have to get on the internet. I didn't for a moment believe CNN's spouting of Shrub's rhetoric as if everyone in Ohio was swooning in love with him. Please, please, if anyone can, post photos of the protest and give us links! Thanks to all of you who were out on the front lines today!

[BelgianMadCow]

35. DAMN fine work there AMD

and man oh man did Bush look drunk or what, out there in the rain...like when he had to scramble to give an interview about the blackout.

[Ivory_Tower]

39. Wow!

And this was in Ohio?? I'm impressed -- good job!
