Corporate Media Talking Down Stimulus on all Cable Chatter Channels! They HATE the American People!
Edited on Tue Feb-17-09 03:37 PM by FrenchieCat
I'm channel surfing to find coverage of the Stimulus Signing....
and find naysayers all over the place who don't give a shit about Us
or the Economy!

As long as they get their paycheck, they sleep at night!

FCC, HELP!

1. They don't hate America, FrenchieCat they just hate the American People.
America is a shining city on a hill somewhere near Valhalla.

3. The media loves
"Doom and gloom" so they are going to do everything they can to paint a terrible picture in hopes their ratings go up! Of course when it does work, they will come back and claim they knew it all the time! I just don't listen to them anymore, it's a waste of my time!

11. The good news is that if you took away the ratings coming from newsrooms and Congressional offices
there are probably about 200,000 people TOPS right now tuned to any of these channels, and of that, maybe 25% are paying attention.

5. Before I could cut CNN off that idiot amy holmes came right
on bashing the bill...I am watching law and order now. They make me sick!

As long his poll numbers keeps rising they look like the idiots they are! They are doing just what rush ordered, hoping the president fails and we fail right along with him.

7. But they are trying hard to drag his numbers down.
That's what they do....cause they hate the working people who actually want to work for a living.

18. Amy neglected to tell us that Wall Street want us, the taxpayers, to totally bail them out.
Geithner did not do this last week, and they responded accordingly. Let's hope President Obama will put us, the taxpayers, first--before Wall Street investment bankers. Those banks which are insolvent ought to be allowed to fail. This is what they fear.

6. Yeah, and when the Dow went through the roof under RatBastard ...
Edited on Tue Feb-17-09 03:40 PM by LSparkle
they were all crowing ... Made me sick. Now their
"talking down" of the JOBS BILL is making me even
sicker. Only makes me hope even more that this
works and that those who were naysayers have to
eat their words.

12. I just heard Obama and feel
great. I turned it off immediately. Too bad the cmwhores are allowed to screw up a perfectly amazing Stimulus Bill Signing.

I'm thinking Obama has people watching to see what they say, too..and have plans to counteract.

15. i noticed that. i missed obama's speech
but came in as obama was going around the room and such and they were talking about how all people are going to get is $400 a year and incentives for buying things but it won't do much to create jobs and it's going to cost $31k per person and where is that money coming from?? it's coming from our kids and blah blah blah.

here is a question... was anyone asking where the money for iraq was going to come from? how many billions have we spent there? how much has been 'lost' there? but i never heard anyone ask about where it was coming from and stealing it from our kids and stuff. but if it's purpose is to help the american people... well then, now we want to know where this money is coming from and blah blah blah. what a crock!!

iraq was supposed to pay for itself, remember!!! at least we will get most of this investment, YES INVESTMENT!!, back. in payroll taxes when people get back to work and when companies are working and creating products and such. we aren't getting any of that money we wasted in iraq back.

16. It is almost scary how lock step they become.
And they say there isn't someone controlling the media message and yet there always seems to be a narrative.

17. The media colludes with each other daily, and if anyone says otherwise,
they are lying.

21. Crazy Kramer had it right
He said that if Wall Street loved it then we were all in trouble. He said the best would be if they hated it AND the taxpayer hated it. He's right on. He also asked a few days ago what "Wall Street's" plan is to get out of this shit and not just scream "what's Obama going to do for us"!! They expected a nice bailout, more bonses, laughing in our face and turning around and start fucking us all over again. Too bad....let them have their tantrum. Too many smaller cats and businessmen are starting to get ulcers wondering how to keep on going and these bastards are going to talk it all into the sewer.
