FUCK!!! EVERY NEWS STATION IS OBSESSED WITH FEAR, FEAR, FEAR!!!

[sicksicksick_N_tired]

I should have stuck with something other than "news".

I am appalled at how there is an obsession with a POSSIBLE destruction that NEVER HAPPENED while there is so much destruction in Iraq, destruction of people's sense of safety in the USA and the UK, destruction of the US Constitution, destruction of democracy, destruction of human lives/decency/integrity/equality/etc.

Forgive me for tuning into that grotesque shit.

Forgive me.

1. As Randi Rhodes always says, the news is CANCELLED. What you're watching is corporate propaganda.

Man, am I glad I don't have cable & the only channel we get is Spanish language (which I don't speak) with a lotta snow. I rent movies or go to sports bars or a friend's house to watch sports. I have no other use for the boob tube, and I sure as hell wouldn't go there for news. Stop torturing yourself. Turn that crap off.

2. Now go find a site

that is intriguing and inspirational for you. You might find the story at www.firethegrid.com interesting, for example.

Periodically we all stumble.

11. If I see you, again,...I'll remember you as the "forgiving old guy".

I'm just glad I stick with reality, ON THE GROUND,...at all times. Know what,...it's not so bad. Well, the health thing and financial thing is tough but I live in a pretty caring community. I'm lucky.

4. I'm not afraid. We don't buy it anymore.

Fear is for the weakling neocons.

5. I know what you mean. It is appalling.

[partylessinOhio]

6. I only fear the Axis of Evil: * and CheeKnee!

Why was there no fear of Shock and Awe??

[EFerrari]

7. I haven't watched that stuff for over a year.

Because life is too short. :shrug:

8. You don't like it, don't watch it. Do you expect them NOT to report it

This is a news event. Believe or not people could have been killed.

What should piss people off is the over attention given to paris hilton or britney spears

You are correct, they hardly cover Iraq, which also demands attention.

However, I fail to see why someone would be upset about this coverage

If nothing else it puts people on alert

9. Turn the channel and let the ratings sink.

12. Just wait til this upcoming week,,,,

13. As the screws slowly turn on Bush and Cheney they use every outlet to distract you

Bush and Cheney and Murdoch have got the US media by the throat. The propaganda machine still churns out the same old stuff!

Don't you wish they would talk about Paris Hilton instead?

14. Walk away from the T.V.

I'm listening to an awesome rant by a mother who
lost her son in Iraq on Air America Radio .

She is pissed off ..

15. All Day, and I'm Sure they will go All Night.

and well into tomorrow where the sunday talk shows will be dominated by the TERROR 'EXPERTS'

16. One of the many reasons I canceled my cable subscription.

I got so sick of the trash. I remember Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite, men who spoke truth to power.

By the way, we don't have habeas corpus in this country. Now that scares me.

17. Isn't it odd

when the people in bush's administration trash the constitution, steal taxpayers money and all the other fraud they perform, all we get is white blonds, who are lost, ran away or jailed.

But when there is a threat of terror, and the MSM wants to show how wonderful the republicans are at protecting us...all we hear is terror terror terror. NO white blonds gonna knock this crap off TV.
