Taking Bets -- How many (if any) Sunday shows will feature the Saddam docs and implications?
My Brain ^ | 3-18-06 | FreedomNeocon

Posted on 03/18/2006 8:31:31 AM PST by FreedomNeocon

Just a super quick question I was pondering this morning.

I wonder how many of the sunday talk shows tomorrow will mention the recent releases and implications tomorrow.

I wonder how many will devote a segement to them.

I wonder how many will feature it.

I wonder how many will mention it only in passing, pooh-pooh anything that would help Bush, and move on to talking out THEIR latest "poll numbers"

It would be typical of the MSM... Dan Rather's documents are 'fake, but accurate and reliable', but Saddams are 'authentic, but inaccurate and totally unreliable'... ALL because of how they play for Bush. /rolleyes


TOPICS: Conspiracy; Government; History; Local News; Military/Veterans; Miscellaneous; Politics; Society
KEYWORDS: alqaedaandiraq; iraq; iraqiintelligence; saddam; saddamdocs; sundaytalkshow
Any bets?

Probably right after the segments on Schumers aides guilty plea to identity theft of a black Republican mayor and candidate.

Outside of Fox. I doubt any of them will.

It's a waste of time to watch these dumb shows. Even FOX has on idiots like Mara "Spock ears" Liason and CC Connelley. I haven't watched in over a year.

I suggest going to church or doing something else on SUN mornings that's more fulfilling.

Since the removal of Tony Snow from Fox News Sunday, I don't indulge, except occasionally the screaming faces segment.

This Sunday they have an exclusive with Dick Turban, can't wait to miss that one.

Tony said on his radio show "Stay tuned... " when asked recently about getting more time on FOX. Hinting a show deal may be in the works.

Anyway... my bet is that it will get mentioned, but only in passing of some 'roundtable' segemnt, and get pooh-poohed by the (3/4 or 4/4 liberal) panels.

Fox will do more, but I don't expect the story to even be in the show intro (having its own segment)

I definately don't see it being the feature or ONLY topic, like I think it may warrent (depending on what they trot out)

I'll be disappointed (but not surpirsed) if "polls" are the lead story.

Hard to say.

The vast majority of the US public have already made up their minds as to whether or not they they believe or care about this.

Of those undecided, most are tired of hearing about saddam.

So, I guess it gets minimal coverage, a mere mention.

Implications? none.

FoxNews this morning is doing a piece on how to tell a LIAR when you see one. They've been talking about it on and off for a while now. I suggest they just watch all the Sunday morning shows.

And as far as your question goes, the second part of this is your answer.

The old established/liberal/socialist media is America's most ruthless, relentless, and destructive enemy.

Huxley: “ The greatest triumphs of propaganda have been accomplished, not by doing something, but by refraining from doing. Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth." — Old Media lives these words.

Will Dickie be able to lie that long? How many times will he dribble out "incompetent"?

I loved the segment on Beltway Boys when they show-cased the new word of the week.

Yes, me too.

Also.......... isn't it always funny through the year seeing all the Dems. and the commie/anti-American/socialist Old Media pundits coming out every few weeks or so with the "new working phrase" for their political needs.

I think I first really noticed it with the silly --- "GRAVITAS"!!!

rofl!

Ok, I didn't get a chance to see them all (some shows run on same time) but I didn't hear a PEEP of any of this on ANY show.
