ABC News Anchor Charles Gibson Finally Runs Story on ACORN Scandal - Video 9/16/09

Here is video of an ABC News report finally run on the ACORN Scandal. Anchor Charles Gibson leads into the story, saying "Next we are going to turn to a political firestorm."

It was just a few days ago that Gibson said on a Chicago radio station he had not even heard of the ACORN story. I guess that prompted him to look into it.

Charlie, why would do you think people want to get their news from the uninformed?

I see a political cartoon of Charlie sitting at his news desk which is all burnt and in soot (fire gone). "And Next we turn to a political firestorm.

You missed it there Charlie!

What newspapers do you read, comrade?

Those internet sites you speak of do not tow the Party line.

Better late than never and the fact that Jake Tapper did the report helps

His lead is that, for years, Republicans have been taking aim at ACORN.

yeah...Charles, that is the most important thing about ACORN, what deserves to be said before anything else. Put a warning label on the story so your idiot viewers will know Republicans have been “taking aim” at ACORN.

Bertha says “this was indefensible”......funny, I seem to recall many statements she made where she blamed FOx and the film crew.

As usual the FM (Beck renamed them Fringe Media) omits one or more pertinent facts, ie.

Chm Zer0 wanted to give Acorn $Billions.

Noticed that too. “Prostitution” not “child prostitution”. No mention of bringing in 13 year old girls from El Savador. No mention of bank fraud. Just “prostitution” (hee..hee...we all know that will never go away so what’s the big deal?)

Right. Since all the parties in the California video were white, that means we’re racially intolerant to everyone now.

Which means we no longer discriminate! We’ve come full circle!

Disclaimer: I know we’re not racists. I’m just using their logic...as twisted as it sounds.
