Why is Mary Matalin allowed to ramble unopporsed? Where is the "balance"
Edited on Fri Oct-27-06 10:25 AM by FLDem5
I can't take her nasal whine.

She is getting in a 3-minute campaign commercial for George Allen on MSNBC.

1. Balance? In the corporate media?

Whatever you're on, I' take some. :hi:

4. I see I forgot the "sarcasm" smilie!
I can't believe she just let her spew like that.

They usually have two talking heads on to present the illusion of balance.

Up Next: Arnie has already won.

2. There is no balance.
The fairness doctrine was tossed a long time ago. All we have now is the corporate Bullshit Media System.

6. The Fairness Doctrine is long-dead

Now it's all "pay-to-play".. Rich folks bought our media and we see what they WANT us to see..

Plain and simple

7. The Noran's ass-kissing and GOP sycophancy is a morning 'feature'
Edited on Fri Oct-27-06 10:44 AM by TahitiNut
I detest her constant pandering to the GOP. It doesn't help that I detest Maybelline Mavens ... she looks almost like a clown with all the pricey dirt on her face. Gawd! Why do women do that? Jack Nicholson playing the Joker looked about as 'natural.' I don't regard it as much a 'looks' thing as I regard it as a hygiene issue and a total waste of money - money that could feed kids.

8. At the end of the segment,
Nora tells her ~take care of yourself, Mary responds with Thanks Girlfriend! :eyes:

9. They don't let Matalin on with anyone else anymore.
Last time she snorted and contorted and foamed at the mouth and they had to give the other guests rabies shots. It's safer this way. Norah is already rabid, so they get along well.
