CNN's "That's Bullshit" Coverage

Lou Dobbs Tonight, (7/15/05) as Lou was introducing a piece on the Rove story.

Lou says, "...Rove testifying that he first learned about Plame from columnist Robert Novak, a CNN contributor. Danna Bash reports." Immediately after that you can clearly hear a female voice on mic whispering "that's bullshit". Then Dana Bash continues with her report.

HAH! This little non-issue may actually end up getting someone fired. But it won't be Rove.

[citizencon]

Shouldn't Dana Bash be fired at least for speaking profanity on the air?
Demand an investigation. This has the makings of a CNN-gate.

CNN new motto...That Bullshit! ?

[HarryCaul]

Eh, I'm not very convinced she was commenting on the content of the story at all. Could have been part of a 100 contorl room converations that had nothing at all to do with the story.

[GeorgiaYankee]

Maybe they could use this for their new network ID. Right after James Earl Jones says "This is CNN"!

At the 'Rat convention last year, CNN had a microphone in the booth of whoever was in charge of making sure the balloons came down at the right time. There was a problem with the balloons and CNN was broadcasting them saying, "I want more balloons, God Dammit! What the f*ck are you guys doing up there?!"

I didn't know what Rove looked like until just recently.

Maybe Penn and Teller should sue for copyright infringement.

Lou says, "...Rove testifying that he first learned about Plame from columnist Robert Novak, a CNN contributor. Danna Bash reports." Immediately after that you can clearly hear a female voice on mic whispering "that's bullshit".

So, what she's trying to say is, "Although my mind is made up and I have made a definite decision on a partisan issue, I promise to.... aw hell. Forget it. I'm only going to present facts that support my side."

Just FYI just because the on air talent is to the left don't think the technical people behind the scenes are

I was doing work for about a month in major networks west cost transmission control room during the Florida 2000 recount mess...the vast bulk of the engineers in that control room were to the right of the avg FReeper... you would be amassed at what they think of there own on air talent...I could see one letting a reporters mic be open for a comment

Thanks!

Every now and again, the lib-Dems in elective office, in the press, or elsewhere, commit the worst act in politics and communications. The "commit truth." They blurt out what they really think and believe, rather than the polished dishonesty that passes for discourse these days.

This is an example of that. So was Chuck Schumer telling a friend by phone from the Amtrak that "this is war." We should cherish such moments of truth, because they will be clear indicators of what we are up against, and they will be scarce as hen's teeth, as folks say hereabouts.

AAAANNNNDDD!

I saved it to my hard drive as well.

Silly MSM. They should learn that they can't get away with their usual business anymore as long as FREEPERS are around.

I can second that, also Control rooms have intercoms that sound like phone quality, they don't have mics that can accidentally be put on the air.

[Interesting Times]

Wow, CNN... I remember them.

Weren't they the network that televised the first Gulf War?

[GeorgiaYankee]

Here it is, the New CNN Network ID!!!!

Perhaps. But ask yourself this: Is the idea that it could actually be said by someone in the control room about the story a credible idea? Of course it is. This is typical liberalism.

Let's just say that Dana Bash must have gotten her job on merit. A Fox babe she ain't...and her stories are often biased against the President.

She's one of the worse looking female correspondents out there . . . terrible bone structure, bad nose, drab coloring, nondescript eyes. I have a hard time even looking at her.

Here's a link to let CNN know what you think of Dana Bash
