"Are we going to have to hear this for 4 years?" |
|
That was Washington Journal host's response to a Florida woman calling to express her fears about election fraud. I'm going to complain to C-Span. Will that do any good?

7. I don't think they are. |

They are supposed to appear neutral, but sometimes their bias slips out.

Most C-SPAN hosts take the "no editorializing rule" too far sometimes.
A couple of weeks ago, Brian "Spineless" Lamb was taking a call from a tearful woman whose son had just been blown to bits on a Hummer in Iraq. You would have thought he was listening to a menu of options from the computer at his bank.

8. Short answer: yer goddam RIGHT we're going to have to hear this! |
|
Just the way we've been hearing that Clinton is the antichrist for fourteen years.
:evilgrin: dbt
PS: Complaining to any of the Media Borg will do even less good, now that bu$h's "mandate" is in place.

10. After the LAST selection, Brian Lamb was very pissed at the callers |
|
A caller called in one day, and Brian went ballistic..(paraphrasing)
"Caller, it's been almost SIX MONTHS, why can't 'you people' get over this?"
I had to turn the tv off.:grr:

11. Someday our focus will have to be on the future. |
|
Whether that happens sometime in the next four years is anybody's guess.

12. Just say "I can't EVER get over losing my right to vote!" |

Rigged "elections" = NO VOTE = NO DEMOCRACY
NOTHING else you do politically matters -- if the elections are rigged "they" will always win no matter what "we" do
