1. Yeah---at least FAUX is upfront about their whoring bias, I mean...
"fair and balanced" is an ironic joke, right?

3. Ack!
Sounds like you need the 9 step plan:

1. Press Power button on the remote.

2. Take 6 steps back.

3. Throw remote in waste receptacle.

10. Good plan.
Seeing his smirking chimp face every night may be what it takes to cure me of being a News Junkie!

4. You got it down pat....
But that would apply to all of TeeVee and most of the press.

I call them mediawhores and Presstitutes! And I stopped watching and reading much since the primaries.....unless absolutely neccessary (which is rare)!

7. You just noticed?
Been that way for at least 6 years, maybe more. Of course, before Tiberius Bunnypants* and even beyond the current Imperial Family CNN, like Faux (only slightly less obvious), is a creature of THE PARTY.

Communist Party, Nazi Party, Bushevik Party...to varying degrees they are all of the same wide family of Totalitarian Tyrants which spans from Godless Commies to Divinely Appointed Kings.

But yes, CNN is awful beyond repair. They could work for the Chinese Communists. All they'd need is the Chinese Scott Peterson and the Chinese Michael Jackson and they wouldn't have to change a thing except the names of the Tyrants they whore for.

8. They actually switched to some stupid speech Bush was giving
During the grilling of Condi this afternoon. Even Faux News had Condoliesa's hearing on.

12. Yep
After watching a portion of their shameful behavior during the election spectacle, I no longer waste my time watching any of CNN's whores.

13. ALL CABLE NEWS LIES !
The big three cable news organizations are not reporting news but shaping perception. Techniques honed on Madison Avenue for decades are now being applied by news networks to twist reality in an alliance with BushCo. Enterprises.
