ALl of CBS has to be infested with liberals

That is why we should just not pay them any more attention

“Decidering Points” would have actually been pretty funny. ;o)

But FOX news needs to be forced into compliance with the high journalistic standards of See BS.

It is evident that the networks and their talking heads no longer understand the difference between news and comedy.

Unfortunately, they also no longer have the faintest idea what is funny.

One of the highlights during his presidency was CBS’ owned Dan Rather’s efforts to prevent him from being re-elected... Now, it is them again who did this... In any case, this might turn out to be free publicity for the book.

It was also a CBS show that put this on the screen.

CBS - a Safe House for delusional liberals who pretend they are ‘journalists’ and ‘objective’ while acting as the unpaid PR arm of the Democrat party. Their elitist hatred for anyone remotely considered ‘conservative’ is legendary and disgusting. Dan Rather was their star and his utter contempt for truth and fairness led to his downfall, while President Bush enjoyed a two terms in office, despite ongoing attempts by CBS to destroy his presidency. Apparently, CBS is still a hotbed of hatred and so deserves it’s well-earned ignominy.

There’s no excuse for what CBS Snooze did. The subtitle can hardly be read but the deliberate misspelling of “Decision” as “Desision” should have been a huge clue to the staff that that was not the right cover to display.

They just can’t get over it.

That was no mistake...some sophomoric snot on the weekend crew thought he was being funny.

Save for the title and subtitle, the cover image looked similar to that of the real book, "Decision Points."

Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?

CBS issued a statement acknowledging it made a "mistake," saying nobody could see it "because you'd have to freeze the frame to notice it."

There's a lie. "Decision" was clearly misspelled. No way to get around that.

"Clearly we have to be more careful when downloading material," CBS said, calling the incident a "cautionary tale" about the risks of Internet content.

Mostly they're upset they were caught. Surfing the net and pulling down your favorite funnies is just plain unprofessional at best. Utterly partisan, divisive, and a lie to say that they are objective reporters.

CBS lies, of course.

One suspects most strongly that this was intentional, and done in order to have big laughs at the next "news" person "holiday" cocktail pahtee.

(The big joke is that CBS just managed to erode its vanishing credibility that much farther.)

Clearly, what CBS does not understand is that trust is easily lost, and that trust is practically impossible to regain.

And also, that insulting viewers with childish pictorial demonstrations of romantic left wing bias proves OUR point beyond any doubt.

“Desision Points”.

That’s racist. They’re making fun of the President just because he’s black!

Oh. ... Never mind.

Apparently, the practice of so-called journalism in CBS doesn’t change from the time of Dan Rather. Have pre-conception idea about Dubya, and run a material, any material, that ‘confirms’ their idea. There is no doubt that whoever staff that downloaded the cover agreed with the subtitle, so s/he was not suspicious about the tone of it.

CBS News clearly needs a new motto.

Here are some ideas:

“The Hoaxy Network!”

“All The Hoaxes Fit to Broadcast!”

“All Hoaxes, All The Time!”

“No Hoaxes left Un-Broadcast!”
