    The bad Joke Called CNN

    In my function as anti-terrorism envoy for de CIA,

    I find myself in international waters.

    Happens that the local cable company "new and improved" programming,,

    has CNN to view and has eliminated FOX.

    Thus I have been watchin CNN----what a joke,, talk about goin down hill,etc.

    Wolf Bliter in the situation room--the leftist runt with the preprogramed leftist propaganda who is too stupid to hide his bias.
    Interviews the phony baloney Imam as if his Cordoba House is reallya search for peace. Condemn extremist Islam,, bitch!

    Discussion panels with 5 leftists, 2 of which are black, and one little conservative who cannot articulate shit. Fair and balanced?"The Best Political
    Minds on TV"

    The oldest man inthe world , King, who does not, can not use a computer, but other than being a soft ball pitcher, is prob harmless.

    James Carville, the former Clinton Chief of campaign, who spoke the truth only once in his career when he ripped Obama a new asshole over the POTUS inept handling of the Louisiana oil spill.

    Spitzer, former Gov of NY,, guilty of spending state money on Hookers,,resigned in disgrace,, yet still spews his leftist garbage as if anyone respects his biased leftist opinions. What a disgrace for a once proud network


    No wonder the ratings of CNN have gone down to 1/5 of Fox News ratings.

    As opposed to Fox which would have had a panel of 4 conservatives, and one faux liberal, all of whom would have been white, middle age men.

    Both stations are biased. Whichever politics floats your boat will dictate which one you watch; however someone who is truly interested in understanding the news and current events would watch neither, and would ensure they watch a broad range of news to try and gain a clearer view, rather than relying on a single, biased source for their news.

    Actually ,i agree with you ,,except,

    instead of not watching either, I would try to watch all views,even MNBC, and Network news, NY Times etc

    and then become a free-thinking, informed observer and voter.

    That's true. Each day I read The Hill, The NY Times, Politico, PoliticsDaily, and a few other politics blogs, in addition to my own countries papers. At work I listed to our 24 hour news radio station, which in the afternoon alternated between NPR and the BBC. In the evenings I watch at least two news programs on different stations (yeah, I guess you could say I'm a news junkie). The one thing that is apparent with all of this exposure is just how wrong so many of the reports are. For example, let's say there's a plane crash - one station might report that 200 are dead; the next station might report that 100 dead, 100 injured; another report might report just a single fatality. It's hard to get a clear picture of events, but it would be virtually impossible if one were to restrict them self to a single news source, which unfortunately so many do.

    I'll tell Juan Williams you don't recognize his work. Or maybe you think him to be white. Or after 25 years at NPR that he is only a faux liberal.

    But to be fair, they probably all reported the crash was Bush's fault

    yes CNN loves to stir the pot--
    class warfare , racial and hispanic tension.

    Yet they do loove tea,, Tea Party, that is. They loved Angle and the Witch from DE, but they especially love when the Tea Party people are a threat to Republican unity, most recently kissinup to Dr Rand Paul who they see as an anti-Repub, republican. Yeah they do love division and internal strife. Must be why they are soooo popular.

    At first I thought you were joshing me , with all the political and news sources you feed on each day, but I guess that is part of your work.
    I, on the other hand , am on disability, and I have 24 hrs a day to do whatever.

    and I have seemed to have developed a bug up my ass for knowledge, especially political and historical.

    And you gotta admit, blaming George Bush for that plane crash was funny .
