Have you noticed how quickly the Schiavo autopsy... |
|
fell off the MSM sites.
I was talking with a co-worker this AM about it and went to CNN.com, less than 24 hours after it broke, and there is not a single link on their page. WTF!! This story was all they lived and breathed for three solid weeks.
Now that we know that she was blind (tho' Frist stated that she had visual interactions) and that she *was* brain dead, and that there was never any abuse, the story dies.
Who says they aren't following an agenda.

1. It seems like the media is covering the truth about Terry Schiavo. |

2. She was blind and her brain was atrophied |
|
Frist should have his medical license taken away, he obviously has no idea what he is talking about with anything medical. He was completely wrong with the Schiavo case and then there are his absurd AIDS comments.

3. Not just how quickly the story died, |
|
but also how none of the stories mentioned Frist's absurd "diagnosis" nor the outrageousness of Bush flying into DC specifically to sign that bill! Can't remind the people how wrong the Repukes got it now, can we?

4. I'm Not Doubting What You Say |
|
but I'm just glad it was reported accurately yesterday and this morning.
There are so many stories that never see the light of day. It has an impact even it's a one-shot headline.

7. Yep, the MJ verdict was almost as bad as |
|
the OJ verdict -- remember that they cut away from an official speech or press conference by President Clinton to report the OJ verdict? Like OJ was the most important news of all.

8. I remember that very well; I think Clinton actually delayed |
|
the conference or something like that and whatever I was watching showed both things simultaneously.

12. Perhaps we should have sent several thousand people |
|
to stand in front of the medical examiners office and act like total jackasses. It worked for them.
