How has media reported every significant Dem speech of the last 5 yrs.?

[blm]

The Democrats never offer any policy positions or solutions.

They are in disarray.

What speech? My producer didn't tell me nothing about a Dem speech.

Sez so right here on this fax I got from Karl Rove.

1. Karl Rove can shine my butt

seriously, I'll pay him.

[Vinca]

2. Dems give speeches??

Judging from MSM they don't. Gore should've been covered.

[blm]

4. heheh... unfortunately ....that's always the bottom line.

3. Wow ... we had some significant speeches in the last five years?

Not according to the media. We have just cried in our beer out loud.

We have had them. They aren't allowed to report on them.

5. on the whole, dismissively

[shraby]

6. They didn't even cover Kerry's campaign

speeches. I saw one on CNN one day that had an inset in the corner with Bush talking. Couldn't hear Kerry.

[emulatorloo]

7. Remind DU'ers next time they claim "Kerry never criticized Bush in 04" or

"never laid out any alternatives" or "explained what he was for" or "didn't respond to the swiftboat vets" or etc etc etc.

There have been some great speeches from Dems the past 5 years. On cable TV, nothing but out of context soundbites if we're lucking. And frothing Rove-bots given free reign to smear and distort.

9. Well, in all honesty, Kerry waited too long to come out against

the Swiftboats.

But, on the whole, I agree with you. The media didn't cover him well and minimized his speeches, while playing up DimSon's.

[blm]

16. No - try the research forum for the facts about Kerry's swiftlies defense.

The MEDIA didn't feature his defense.

[Clark2008]

8. They haven't. eom

[stevedeshazer]

10. I just went to Fox News (so you don't have to)

They got nothin'. :)

[donkeyotay]

11. They cover only enough to provide context for their spin

But the most annoying tactic is the way they have this imperial "we" as if they and the audience were united as one and they're covering an intrusion by the Democrats. The Democrats are always assailing the castle from outside.

[blm]

13. Nailed it. Just enough to provide the content for their spin.

We're gonna see that exact tactic all day today - the day after chopaDemup.

[malaise]

12. Wolfie is going to discuss the speech

and chat about whether this is a case of sour grapes. These fuggers are unbelievably shameless. One of the most important speeches in decades is not going to be dissected and analyzed but will be discussed in terms of sour grapes. I give fucking up!!

[peekaloo]

14. How noble of CBS to mention Gore's speech

on their overnight show @4 a.m. :sarcasm:

[blm]

15. They finally got their overnight instuctions from Karl?

17. That seems to be the time he monitors the "Bat Cave". nt
