Media Lying on Pres. Obama again! In particular, CNN! |
|
They currently have a headline reading, "GM Getting another $4 Billion Loan"..... yet they explain that this money had already been promised to GM by Bush.
So is it "Getting another", or "Getting the rest of..."????

1. I saw that too! I'm like another? or more of the first one? |
|
Also, the host keeps saying Obama owns this economy beginning tomorrow. He has said that 5 times already. I guess they are picking up the rush meme "Obama Recession". Interesting.

Just coming on three weeks, and they are already attempting to rush us to judgment on the Recovery Package he has yet to sign.
I hate their funky asses. They are a big part of the reason that we are in this fucked up situation, but they hide behind credits and act like its everyone else's doing.

4. I cut CNN off after that but my friend said they did some piece |
|
on the cost of Marine One? I guess he needs to scale back on his safety to save the economy? I didn't see it but it didn't sound good.

5. They called that segment...."keeping them honest". |
|
Figures.
I hate these bastards. They have done more harm to this country than Bin Laden, if you ask me.

6. And I bet they didn't mention who ordered the 23 Marine helicopters |
|

Yup, it was Bush. Plus, the contract went to Lockheed, which had NO experience building helicopters. Needless to say, there've been massive budget overruns; the project is totaling around twice as it was contracted (EACH copter will cost $400 million+, or more than both of the new Air Force Ones and a hangar to store them).

9. Yeah, that was dirty and underhanded |
|
by CNN. The way they framed that piece on the helicopters you would have thought Obama was wildly spending badly needed resources on unnecessary things for his own comfort. CNN tows the corporate line every hour of the day and night. It is particularly egregious by Lou Dobbs and Wolf Blitzer.

11. Rec'd~ The only way cnn is going to get busted |

Obama won inspite of the cmwhores and he has to succeed in helping the country in spite of them.
cnn has to render themselves useless by 1/2 assed reporting.

15. At it again today. "McCain Country" feature piece. |
|
They suck. I was at gym at 12:30 or so. They did a feature piece on a Texas town that voted 94% for McCain. They ran a large chiron on the bottom of the news "McCain Country" in big letters during the news. Then they did the report from this folksy rural town interviewing people who didnt know anyone who voted for Obama. Whatever the truth of the story the metamessage was divisive "we didnt vote for him" message made folksy.
