WHY is it necessary for CNN to tell me what Rev. Wright is saying??!!!

[patrice]

:grr:

I hate this interruption.

Just let me listen to the man. I don't need CNN's "help".

[rwheeler31]

1. Give them a break, they have an hour to fill.

[ColbertWatcher]

23. I came here to say this. n/t

[Junkdrawer]

2. Spinning the content...Let's talk about the Wright controversy...NOT...

about the injustice he decries...

[malaise]

3. They do that crap all the time

like we can't understand what we're hearing for ourselves- like we need their interpretation.

[sandnsea]

4. Still messing up on my tv

Is anybody else with satellite having problems?

[jaxx]

5. They want to be sure you hear it "their" way.

You might think Rev. Wright isn't as bad as they want you to think.

[panader0]

6. It is because they do not believe that we can decide for ourselves

We know better.

[Bluzmann57]

7. yak yak yak. Blah blah blah

Just shut up and play the speech! "I am Soledad O'Brien and I am cool". I am an upset viewer and I pay your salary...wait, scratch that.

[depakid]

8. That's what you get if you watch that channel

or most any other corporate media outlet (or PBS these days, for that matter).

For my money, I'll wait for youtube.

[stillcool]

19. That's what I do...

wait for the transcript, or watch youtube. I can't deal with the bullshit anymore.

[BlooInBloo]

9. Without white(-ish) people to interpret, it's not possible to understand black people

Obviously.


EDIT: Fixed subject.

[SoCalDem]

10. Because Little Ricky has to analyze things for us

This is all I need to know about Little Ricky

11. Reading, writing and Ritalin! Been there, Seen that!! nt

[malaise]

14. That was brilliant n/t

[patrice]

16. Rev. Wright is really a clever guy. He should publish podcasts. nt

[patrice]

12. It's not exclusively righ or left brain but tendencies for a more dominant right or more dominant

left.

Everyone needs both hemispheres, so it is useful to characterize proportions of right:left, 50:50, 40:60, 33:67, 52:48 etc. etc. etc.

And then, of course, there is even variation within the individual over time and situations.

[pscot]

13. 'Cause you might get it wrong

It's for your own good.

[patrice]

17. Dagnabbit!! It makes me ornery when someone tells me that!

}(

[L. Coyote]

22. Because you might get it right, and that is wrong, just plain wrong, wrongo,

just think what you hear, nothing more, get used to that.

[UTUSN]

15. The DEEP INSIGHT of Rick SANCHEZ is a National Treasure!1 n/t

[Subdivisions]

18. Because they have nothing else important to do? n/t

:shrug:

[HeeBGBz]

20. "Oh stewardess! I speak jive."

"Cut me some slack, Jack! Chump don' want no help, chump don't GET da' help!"

[noel711]

21. They HAVE to tell you what he says because they KNOW

you don't know how to think for yourself....

Don't listen to REv. Wright, let the MSM filter it for you
so you don't have to do any heavy lifting....

So... what do you want to wager how this will be spun
during the morning shows?

Scarborough? "Wright, hate, Obama bad, etc etc"

NBC/CBS/ABC: "More trouble for Obama..."

Faux: "Rabble rousing, hatred, divisiveness.."

Any other wagers?

("Wasn't it troubling that he equated Islam with
Christianity and Judaism?")

(BTW: Wright was brilliant, and I heartily support
his ministry...)

[SeattleGirl]

24. Because. they. think. you. can't. figure. it. out. on. your. own.

Don't you just get sick and tired of the M$M treating us like little children? :grr:

[kevinbgoode]

25. They have to translate it into "whitespeak". . .

After all, the people running the MSM ain't the brightest white boyz on earth. . .just among the greediest.

[timtom]

26. In the 21st century

there is absolutely NO valid reason for watching teevee. Everything you need is available through other avenues. (Note I avoided the use of "channels".)
