I really get sick and tired of media bias. Galloway really lashes into her.

17. What is this ttt you always post
You also posted that to one of my threads. Perhaps I'm out of the loop, but is that supposed to be a comment and if so is there some reason you can't spell it out?

11. He Is One Hell of a Communicator...
and I would hate like hell to get into a public argument against him--even if it turned out I happened to be right (cuz I know I'd be handed my arse in a basket, bleeding).

13. This is now the third time this has been posted
link to previous postings : http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=2764783&mesg_id=2764985

I can understand the USA whooppee brigade being overjoyed at the sight of a news presenter getting blown away in an apparent defence of Israel because the comparison I guess is being drawn against the USA media.

The fact is that Sky News, despite the fact it is Murdoch owned , competes against the BBC and Channel 4 news stations and trust me - none of them have shown bias to either side in this conflict. If anything Sky have infact given far greater coverage to Lebanon. If anyone in the UK wants to contradict that then feel free.

By posting that interview on their own site just after it occured Sky have simply further exposed Galloway for the loudmouth he really is.

14. Galloway is right
on point.

Note to "ShrewdlyDone" - those of us who fail to know (and understand) our history are doomed to repeat it.

21. What is the truth about Galloway? (read this comment)
I have watched a number of Brits really angry at Galloway. When arguing with them, this is one of the statements that was made-

"...his own party ejected him. He's friends with saddam hussein, and got his mate in the fire service union to call a strike just as the iraq war started, so soldiers would be held back to cover.
oh, and papers were found in Iraq to show that he was getting oil to sell in order to weild his massive political power."



I vaguely remember some controversial things about Galloway, but the above statement seems to indicate some big troubles. I would normally not care, but these comments came from one of a few people in a forum that I really respect.

22. Not sure
but he sure makes alot of sense in the video. Seems like alot of people who speak out get quickly branded as being kooks, liars, or worse. Then the rumors or lies are repeatd for so long it becomes "fact".

25. I, personally, can't stand the man, for a variety of reasons.
However, there are occasions when he absolutely wipes the floor with someone and you have to take your hat off to him. This is clearly meant to be a positive thread about him, and I wouldn't want to start an argument. I'm all Middle-Easted out.

27. At least the last claim is a known right wing fraud
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Galloway

Draw your own conclusions, none of the documents asserting a role in the oil for food program could be verified in court, and both the Telegraph and CSM have lost libel lawsuits for running with the story. The only other claim that is even damaging is his supposed friendship with Hussein, and that seemed to be more a show of solidarity with a nation under attack by the West then a personal endorsement of Hussein's politics.

30. It's partly due to
his appearance on 'Celebrity Big Brother' in the UK last year. He apparently spoke a lot about the Iraq war and such, but it got edited out. On a personal level, though - as a human being - it became clear to the nation that he is a complete asshole... petty, bullying, and obsessed with his own celebrity.

33. Well then he's in good company ...
I love his style. But I also understand that he's not the kind of guy EVERYONE would be thrilled with ... but one thing's for sure, He's The Genuine Article.

BTW "petty, bullying, and obsessed with his own celebrity"? You've just described nearly EVERY DAMN POLITICIAN on the face of this planet. He's with good company albeit not everyone's buddy type. :hi:

24. I like this part
So, it’s YOU who should be JUSTIFYING the evident bias which is written on EVERY line of your face and is in EVERY nuance of your voice and is loaded in EVERY question that you ask.

26. And that, friends, is why Galloway is not allowed on American TV.
The closest thing I've seen to a pro-Lebanese perspective on CNN was a mushmouthed diplomat who barely spoke English trying to answer questions he clearly did not even understand...

28. This guy rules

A little too much of an apologist for Hezbellah for my taste, but he makes some good points and he's quite a riot.
