Any info on MSNBC *whore Susan Durrwatcher?
Incredible, blatent Shrub-whoring at MSNBC.

Booker Susan Durrwatcher deliberately giving access to liers, and stonewalling the truth. This is the very definition of right-wing bias, AKA the vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

SORTING OUT OPINION FROM FACT ON KATRINA
By Larry Johnson
From: Media
While watching the MSNBC program, CONNECTED, COAST TO COAST with Ron Reagan, a man from the Evergreen Foundation was on air spinning the myth that the President had to "beg" the Governor of Louisiana to take action. Having been on this show several times I called one of the bookers, Susan Durrwatcher, to alert her to the fact that this man was misrepresenting what happened. I offered Susan the following objective, documented facts (see timeline below). Susan thanked me for my "opinion" and said "we just have a different perspective". Stunned, I asked her by what standard of journalism that an objective fact was mere opinion? I asked her to simply look at the documents and correct the record. She declined. I asked her to remove me from the MSNBC list of contacts. I'm sure MSNBC won't miss me and I am certain I will have a happy life without having to subject myself to their unprofessional approach to journalism.

1. And This Surprises You?
So....will you continue watching MSNBC, or keep hoping that they will someday learn how to tell the truth?

The media in this country is SCUM, and aside from Countdown, I refuse to watch any MSM news programming. It's pure and simple....a complete waste of time and thought.

3. Stop expecting .....
these complict media outlets to all of a sudden change the direction they have been on for years.General Electric owns NBC/Universal. Case closed.Don't buy into some weak effort at balance and objectivity.

4. What can you honestly expect from a channel named MSNBC?
GE & Microsoft, both soft cuddly people types of corporations.
