So far today MSM Report of Sy Hersh "Rummy/Cheney Abuse Story": PBS/Matthews/CNN
Edited on Mon Jun-18-07 05:02 PM by KoKo01
and since CNN's Blitzer interviewed Sy on his Sunday show...that they allowed Brian Ross to re-air the report with the photo's (from the past) with comments from Sy from Blitzers Sunday interview...gives CNN a report card of "B." ...or "E" for Effort.

PBS gave him a short piece where the interviewer seemed disbelieving of the report,(I'd give them a "D") Matthews seemed incredulous that nothing has been done about this in all this time and mentioning that SY told him at beginning of show that IRAN is NEXT! (I'd give Tweety report a "C") Tweety seemed very tired...and the report was "dumbed down" with bad guys and when did "Rummy" (Sy used Rummy) know.

Just to let you all know because a DU poster asked about how the "M$M" was reporting on Hersh's incredible story in the New Yorker Magazine that broke over the weekend.

1. Well, at least our side is literate.

So we can read the New Yorker and get the story first hand.

2. LOL's ...that's the truth of it. CNN/MSNBC have gone so far in appeasing Fox audience
that they talk about "White Hats and Black Hats" ..."Good Guys and Bad Guys" and really everyone ...no matter who they are of which gender are referred to as "You GUYS!" Sheesh. I guess all these years of a P-Resident who needs a "coloring book with kindergarten graphics" has finally found it's way into the Mainstream Whore Media. :eyes: "Give us a picture book explanation of our policy...and we will PAY YOU BIG $$$$$$$$$$$'s!" Ugh!

4. I just caught the last few minutes with Hersh on Hardball.
Tweety got very loud and angry with Hersh asking why nothing had been done. Hersh looked at him like he was insane.

Sy Hersh doesn't deserve the harsh treatment that Hardballs like to dish out. The slobbering and talking over the guests is just so offensive.

Hersh is just the reporter, he didn't sanction the abuse, the prince of darkness did.

6. Sigh...just trying to get back to TORTURE....but little interest here...and I understand
that folks might have "given up." But if WE don't DO IT...WHO will keep the Sy Hersh reporting on the New Yorker site alive? :shrug:
