Are you hearing the heavily rotated radio ads for CNN/Beck's anti Gore special?
Edited on Thu May-03-07 09:33 AM by blm
This Glenn Beck special that targets Gore's global warming efforts, is getting STAR TREATMENT with the ads which are in heavy rotation on many stations.


I heard the ad 4 times in a half-hour Tuesday. And twice in a 15 min. period yesterday.

CNN. AOL/TIME/Warner. Kingdom Holdings. House of Saud.

Gee - you think House of Saud wants to keep Americans addicted to THEIR oil?

1. I am sure other oilmen are chipping in too...Gore is a big threat - that's why Florida 2000
It's been said then that the chestnut "they just want to win more" was true for the big threat a Gore presidency - with then Kyoto in play would pose to Bushco-oil.
I had missed the ads - not watching TV or listening to other than Air America, but the campaign against Hillary's health insurance plan comes to mind.

2. Glenn Beck is a hate-filled idiot
who does what he's told to do; syas what he's told to say.
He is a tv personage.
Aside from the hatred in this little "man"
I seriously doubt he has ever had the beginnings
of one original thought.
And karma will get him for all that hatred.

3. Its deliberate sensationalism..I'm betting Becks ratings are struggling.

5. He has no ratings.
He is a paid propagandist, and needs none. He is just one of the minor shit-stirrers who do what they are told to do by their masters.


Oil good, ecology bad. Repeat as necessary.

4. Just another reason I feel good about NEVER watching CNN. I quit & I'm glad I did.

6. I'm a keepyoureye on the enemy kind of watcher. I started with FAIR in early 90s and
have approached corpmedia that way ever since - ironically, it was oft times in defense of Bill Clinton. Then I read his book.

9. The ratcheted attacks on Gore could be to discourage him from running.
CNN has their picks already for 2008 and they don't want Gore coming in and making things difficult for their preferred picks.
