Darth Cheney Shooting PROVES Corporate TV media Covers For BushCo
Edited on Tue Feb-14-06 02:32 PM by Vinnie From Indy
Where is Geraldo roaming around in front of the hospital asking trees what they saw? Where is Anderson Cooper wading through the sewers to get an inside track into the hospital? Where are the press hordes in front of the hospital? Where are the video graphics swooping across the screen with scary music? Where is the hysterical "ticker" psyop copy? Where is Sanjay Gupta pontificating on the injuries of Whittington? Where is the teary eyed Nancy Grace gritting her teeth in anger over nailing somebody's ass to the wall? Where is Paula Zahn asking birds why they hate America? Why no retired Generals pointing out on a wall chart how Cheney opened up a can of "shock and awe" on Mr. Whittington's face? Where is Van Sustern?

Bastards!

5. Last night
Wolf Blitzer interviewed former Senator Alan Simpson who was allowed to say "it's beat up Cheney time" in regards to the coverage and was unchallenged. They are downplaying it.

I mean, Clinton had a WH blow job and it was NEWS!!!! for 2 years; Cheney nearly blows a man's head off and it's "poor old Cheney - can't get a break."

2. We all knew that when the Downing Street Memos were made public and the
media ignored it for the first few weeks then downplayed them.

4. you know and I know it...
the msm is just the PR arm of this shower. Your comments explain exactly how they operate - good news for them such as blow jobs in the WH and they slip the dogs - anything unpleasant for the gits and...well you know damned well what happens...a deafening silence.

The media is the tool for stopping the truth from getting out.
