ABC showing 9/11 propaganda and CBS Couric welcoming Limbaugh!?
Edited on Tue Sep-05-06 12:49 AM by Kablooie
What the hell's going on here?

Well, I have a suspicion that various and sundry GOP folks are
demanding that favors due them over the years be paid back.
I'm sure the GOP have done many favors for the TV networks and now the
GOP are calling in their chits in order win the elections.

The GOP is using up all their favor capital right now which means
they won't have much left after the election.

It could be a good thing. (As long as Dems win that is.)

13. Well as a cable customer.....they don't need Neilson to see what
I'm watching. So they will "care" more than we think.

4. It's worse'n that.
The corps own the GOPpers & the MainSCREAM media. The media aren't doing favors. They're just doing what their owners demand.

5. I hate to see Bob Schieffer go.....
...the last remnant of honest newscasters from Murrow/Swayzee to Rather/Brokaw. The era of the paid whores has begun.

9. They should just put on their brown shirts
and be done with it.

Honestly, does any of this come as a real surprise to anyone one here?

10. Corporate mediawhores are pulling
out all the stops. It's a good thing for us that the "stops" are obvious attempts to muddy the truth with republicon lies so the people won't band together to oust the neocon regime.

The Revolution isn't going to be on the fucking tv.

11. Corpmedia's been doing this since 1997. They couldn't have impeached
Clinton without the media's help. They made sure Gore was distorted beyond recognition. 9-11 allowed the corpmedia the room to express their devotion to BushInc OPENLY.

You think privatized voting would be allowed if the public had a media TELLING THEM ABOUT IT on a regular basis?

Katrina was just an UNSPINNABLE EVENT for the media, but they are back on track for this election year and protecting Bush with every breath they take - again.

Dems need to TARGET the media as part of the problem.

12. That the media can be so easily manipulated by the government
well...since they ushered in this criminal regime in 2000, I can't say I'm surprised.

At some point, nothing's shocking.
