CNN: This Jack Cafferty guy is such an Asshole.

[spanone]

Why on God's green earth would CNN put such a miserable son-of-a-bitch on television? Do people actually relate to a man who is such a cynical hack? I'd rather watch paint dry.

1. seems AMIRCA luvs this guy

he's on every am cnn show too. You're right, he's a dick; oh, but you said asshole. We're both right. LOL

[moobu2]

2. CNN's gone to the other side n/t

[Fenris]

3. He's CNN's cranky geriatric douchebag.

Frankly I'd rather wash my eyes with lime than watch that asshole.

4. A pathetic imitation of an Archie Bunker?

[alvis]

5. Maybe they'll put a special Jack Cafferty and Bob Novak show together.

CNN, the network that's no stranger to assholes and douchebags.

6. The fucking drunk driving run away .....

7. Thank you for capitalizing "asshole"......Well deserved.

8. I'll at least show the man 'that' respect.

9. Notice all the right wingers they find with Irish names

The neoturds really believe that people will fall in step with the media sluts they come up with to sell greed and facism The stupid old white guys have come up with a whole cast of sell outs trying to appeal to humanity's ignorance.They cynically use people as stereotypes to maintain racism,sexism and class wars.

10. Cafferty's selling point is being an asshole

but from watching him in the AM for the past couple years it's very evident he's disgusted with the bush admin. He never came out and said it, few newscasters do, but my feeling is he is a Rep that voted Kerry.

11. He's been around a long, long time

I remember him as a second stringer local news reporter in NYC back in the 60s or 70s. He was the guy who reported on the egg frying on the sidewalk on the hottest day of the year. Of course, back then, reporters weren't allowed to express their opinions. Who knew?

He got a slap on the wrist for his hit and run, but the bicyclist he hit is sueing him for $6M or so. He dragged the guy's bike for several blocks while several people yelled at him to stop.

12. Just stop watching it. I haven't seen CNN lately and I don't miss it

a bit. If it's news, I'll hear about it on the internet.

[Raenelle]

13. I quit getting my news off cable 11/2. Anecdotally, almost everyone

I've talked to since then has also quit listening to or reading the MSM. I get all my news now from lefty blogs. I decided I no longer needed government propaganda and lies and misinformation and orwellian insanity as a "balance" to what I can find on the net.

[spanone]

15. I love the net, but I do think you need to take in as much as you can.

I personally run the risk of hearing only what I want to hear.

[shrike]

17. I try to balance it with non-lefty websites

CNN, MSNBC. A lot easier to read than to see and hear.

[Stirk]

16. If you locked Jack Cafferty in a room all alone...

eventually he'd beat himself up.

His particular brand of cynicism just reeks of self-loathing. Like O'Reilley's reeks of arrogance.
