Highlights on the agenda:

ABCNEWS anchor Charlie Gibson will deliver WORLD NEWS from the Blue Room of the White House.

The network plans a primetime special -- 'Prescription for America' -- originating from the East Room, exclude opposing voices on the debate. (snip)

"exclude opposing voices on the debate."

That's the money line, right there.

Actually I see this as a plus.
They are dropping any pretense of neutrality.

The response from ABC, in part: "ABCNEWS alone will select those who will be in the audience asking questions of the president. Like any programs we broadcast, ABC News will have complete editorial control. To suggest otherwise is quite unfair to both our journalists and our audience."

Well, it's not like they're throwing the finger to half of America in secret or anything. It's right there in front of ya.

Who even watches ABC?I guess that the Obama white house didn't use MSNBC because they are in the toilet so they needed a network that has at least five viewers..so they chose ABC..People there isn't anything on TV that night anyway so go out and rent a movie..

ABC can’t possibly claim that running an Obama dog-and-pony show is objective reporting.

If they ever get back to objective reporting - and that will probably never happen - I might consider watching one of ABC’s programs.

This needs to be used to advantage against 0bama and his minions. They are clearly out there in exposing how they clearly are not into providing unbiased news, but they are openly pushing propaganda for their Precious and the Demonrat party. The media is an issue and needs to be confronted and given no respect or so much as an appearance of legitimacy. Any conservative or Republican appearing on their programs needs to always bring it up.
