Anyone watching the Biden special on Faux News?

[SharonRB]

I think it's actually more balanced than the one on CNN was.

1. that's very strange--

i can't believe cnn doesn't know they suck!!!!

[Quantess]

26. They should have a clue by now...

I have told them so, more than once. :evilgrin:

[gateley]

2. No -- don't have cable, but looking forward to the video. There was

also one on Biden on MSNBC tonight. It will be interesting to see how the two compare.

How's it going?

[SharonRB]

6. I missed the MSNBC one

[jillan]

8. don't bother - this is much, much better.

altho the msnbc one wasn't that bad.

[Vincardog]

3. I refuse to watch the FAUX SnewZ propaganda channel

[SharonRB]

5. I usually don't, but I wanted to see how they did with Biden

[tblue]

4. I've programmed my remote control so it won't even go there.

Pls let me know what they say about him.

[jillan]

7. Sharon - I am and I am shocked!

They mentioned ALL of Biden's accomplishments (Vawa, crime bill, Balkans) - CNN didn't mention ONE.

The part they did on Joe's wife and daughter getting killed was done thru Beau's words at the DNC.


They are doing are better job than both CNN and msnbc together.

Using words like confident and diplomatic.
Blue collar, at ease.

Pinch me.

10. The only possible answer is that the money arm of the GOP doesn't like Palin any more than us

[jillan]

11. Or the stuff they are reporting will piss of their viewers - like

Biden defeated Bork; fights for Roe v Wade...so maybe they don't need to dig into the dirt?

15. High Five girlfriend, they did good!!

[jillan]

9. They even talked about Beau going to Iraq.

unbelievable.

[Cha]

12. WTF!

:wow: Somebody must be off or taken too many meds!

[SharonRB]

13. I'm really shocked

This was the best of the three.

[jillan]

18. What do you think their motivation was?

[Cha]

19. I have no idea... I haven't watched fauxsn00ze since

1999 when I first discovered for myself how baised they were..taking dirty digs at Democrats.

Hey, would it have anything to do with mccain's refusal to take major garrett's voice off his political ad?:P

[1corona4u]

14. FOX got it right!!!!

Unreal. I am so amazed. The covered more about Joe, and it was balanced, and quite positive.

I'm truly amazed.

[Colobo]

16. It's incredible, isn't it?

[1corona4u]

17. The best of all the stations...

they still mentioned the crap, but they didn't linger on it, which is the way it should be. They pointed out his acomplishments, which I greatly appreciate!

Oh, and I kind of liked the way they had different people reporting on different parts.

[jillan]

20. They barely mentioned the plagiarism, barely mentioned his gaffes, said that the

Thomas hearing was the only time women's groups opposed Biden.

They mentioned all of his accomplishments.

I'm still shocked :P

[Jennicut]

21. Greta's was by far the best. It was very fair and mentioned his accomplishments.

Maybe because she is a lawyer turned reporter but Greta's documentary was much more thorough and did not waste time on b.s. Great interviews as well. Surprised that Ferraro actually LIKES Biden. Who knew? I though she was still p'od about Hillary not getting the VP slot. It actually mentioned the crime bill, VAWA, and the balkans. And I never saw that interview with Joe in the airplane talking about debating women in the senate, I read about it but to see it was cool. I love watching Joe in general, he is such a fighter for the things and people he believes in.

[gateley]

22. "Surprised that Ferraro actually LIKES Biden. Who knew?"

I honestly think that most people who actually know Biden like him. Lots of Repubs do, too, even though they fight about issues. I've seen him rip Lindsey Graham a new one, then use his gift of Blarney and have Lindsey smiling and looking at him adoringly.

[Jennicut]

23. "Smiling adoringly"! That is true, how can one not be won over by Joe's charm?

I think that is why he does have so many people from the other side as friends. I forget who said it on the Faux special but someone (Bob Beckel?) said he has never seen Joe lose his temper personally on anyone. However, we know McLiar has many times. Both have been in the senate a long time. Did you also know that at the 9/11 memorial Joe tried to see John and say hi and John's staff told him not to come but then Joe came anyway and John wanted to know why he was there? I don't think McCain can handle his friend actually campaigning against him. He is teetering on the edge. I will try and find the article, I read it yesterday on line.

[gateley]

24. I read that about the 9/11 thing. I kind of feel sorry for Joe in that

he may be having to face that the guy who has been his friend for so many years, isn't there any more -- that he's become a different person.
I remember hearing Joe tell that it was McCain who called him first to congratulate him when Obama announced him as his pick. But I wonder if McCain is -- now that it's getting heated -- willing to toss the friendship in order to win. If so, that makes me feel sad for Biden.

25. I chose NOT to watch it. Now I'm sorry and hope to catch a re-run. n/t
