CNN's Hillary Shills - Jessica Yellen and Candy Crawley
CNN has been trying every way it can to skew news to help Hillary. Perhaps the worst two are the "Candy and Jessica Show."

Watch these two shill for Hillary some time. They are without any journalist pride or integrity at all. They are selling, selling, selling.

It's not just those two, but they are two of the worst, and seem to work in tandem.

Have you seen it? Tell me, have you seen it?

1. I've never see Candy shill for a Democrat. I will never forgive her
mean coverage of Kerry.

49. Sharing that you've racked up over 1000+ posts per week in the last 2 weeks?
Yeah, I find it pertinent to the conversation.

If you're putting in 12 hour days on DU, that's over 24 posts per hour on average.

That's ASTOUNDING.

15. This is what you call a BASH Hillary post
Calling reporters a shill without evidence of this is merely flaming. Someone posted the other day statistics of the positives and negatives each candidate gets from the MSM. Yes, there is actually a group that keeps statistics on this. Hillary was way negative and Obama was very much positive. So, OP, flame away.

37. The OP was talking about specific reporters
The overall coverage for Obama may be more positive, but that doesn't mean that -particular reporters' coverage isn't skewed the other way.

2. Not so much shilling for Hillary, but keeping their major SHAREHOLDER happy.
Edited on Thu Feb-14-08 01:05 PM by blm
Kingdom Holdings trusts Bushes and Clintons. They do NOT want that cycle broken.

Dubai and Saudi royals have long been protected by the secrecy and privilege that Bushes and Clintons respect and protect for each other.

You changed that lickety split, didn't you?!

Why? Because your sig was sexist garbage! That's why!

"I need a lover that won't drive me crazy. Some girl that knows the meaning of "hey, hit the highway."

I'll drop you in the outhouse with the other Hill Shills that have nothing to say.

I give all of you a few chances to redeem yourself, but ultimately, you all end up in the same stinky pile.

60. Nah, you'll be long gone after Hillary wins the nomination. I'll still be here. Your sexist ass
will be sharpening up your keyboard for whatever your next gig is.


You can shove your "redemption" right up your ass where you found it. I don't need you for a damn thing. You are quite appropriately just a flash in the pan, and soon I won't have to put up with you stinking up the place anymore.

4. Candy Crowley does not seem skewed to Hillary at all.
On what do you base that?

I can't forgive her for what she did to Gore, much less Kerry.

All the Bushes and the Clintons need is a marriage of state to formally bind their interests.

Edited on Thu Feb-14-08 01:31 PM by TexasObserver
last week, when her open mike caught her saying she didn't want to interview the Washington governor because "she's for HIM, that's the problem!"

If you can watch the spin for Hillary on CNN and not see it, that explains your avatar.

But thanks for playing!

62. Well aren't you precious. Ya'know, some would think that Obama supporters...
would take his lead on this 'change' bullshit, and change their shrieking tone of condescension, derision, division, and debasement. It is just such a tacky spectacle to watch Obama supporters ignore the hopes & dreams of their own candidate.

With your post here and many, many others elsewhere it is clear imo that far too many Obamaphiles aren't even capable of the level of change he's referring to.
