MSNBC is out of control. They are still going with the story about Hillary
going after the pledge delegates after the campaign categorically denied Politico's story. They attributed the story to Politico and then said the Hillary campaign denied it. WHY EVEN RUN THE STORY IF IT'S NOT TRUE!!!! It sure sounds like they have an agenda no matter the truth.

1. I know - and they also don't understand why Michelle's remarks
are going to come back to bite her.

23. MSNBC, KO, Tweety, Whora O'Donnell, Ms. Greenspan and company
These people hate Sen. Hillary Clinton so much that they have been hard-pressed to hide this fact since December.

I expect any night to tune into MSNBC and see their heads spinning around on their necks at the mere mention of her name.

2. I watched two hours of Hillary Hate yesterday
I couldn't stop. It was like seeing a horror movie. You know it will give you nightmares, but you watch it anyway.

3. in general, DENIAL has no inherent relevance to TRUTH...
and I'm not saying Hillary is not telling the truth. I'm saying 'what do you expect from MSM?'...f****** TRUTH only sells at the very end of a story.

7. Just because they denied it doesn't mean there's no story
Obama denied plagiarising, but they're still going with that story, as they should. Why did the Clinton source mention this if they weren't even thinking of doing it?

11. The article said it was a Clinton source, but perhaps not a well-connected one
who was just spouting off. I guess that's for the Politico writer to answer.

16. sucks don't it?
I'd start with Wolfson, he likes to shoot his mouth off on the teevee. The plagiarizing story has been linked to him. MSNBC definitely has it's claws out for HRC, especially after the Shuster brouhaha. She didn't win many friends in the media (sans CNN), and if you think they're biased now, you just wait until the general, if she's the nominee.

They may go negative on Obama, but they absolutely despise Clinton as does a good 55% of the country.

17. 55% does not "despise" her at all. One national survey shows 25% of Rep women would vote for her.nt

9. Well if she denied it then it certainly can't be true!!
How dare they report a story if Hillary's camp says not to!

10. Because her campaign said that's what they were going to do
and now they are denying.

Look if you want to see favorable coverage of Clinton, just wait for Lou Dobbs on CNN, that fucking guy hates Obama with a passion and you will get some great dirt from him no matter what the situation.

15. They have nothing else to talk about and need you to stay tuned for 2 more hours
Go watch a movie or turn the channel -- it is nothing but blather central until 9pm EST.

24. Just because the categorically deny it does not mean it's not true
Do you honestly believe that your candidate (no matter what side your on, be it Barack or Hillary) tell the truth all the time?

26. That sucks, and I hope you expressed equal outrage yesterday when they ran with the Obama story
about plagiarism. We have to be unified when it comes to stopping MSM lies and distortion.

Edited on Tue Feb-19-08 07:28 PM by K Gardner
Clinton surrogates came on and basically hinted at the delegate thing.. then Wolfson came out and denied it.. then the Politico guy came back on Hardball and restated and affirmed it, but refused to cite his source inside the Clinton campaign. I think MSNBC just has a tub full of shit they want to sling, whether its Obama OR Clinton, and they're going to sling it.

No one is taking a harder hit tho than Barack/Michelle Obama.. MSNBC and CNN both have ravaged them for two days now. The CNN coverage yesterday was nothing but vile.

Its showtime.
