Did CSI smear the Tea Party??? (depicts protestors as cop-killers)

one man's opinion...

[ken5050]

Just wondering if anyone else saw the premier of CSI this week? To me, the show's gone way downhill since Grissom left, (I really can't stand Lawrence Fishburne) but I tape it and watch when I can. I just watched the premier episode of the new season, and it sure looks and sounds to me like the MSM is engaging in over-the-top propaganda.

"If you listen closely to the statements or plots on almost ALL of the shows on CBS you will hear anti-conservative words.....CBS is totally progressive communist, anti-American, and marxist drivel. It is a shame for me because most of the shows I have enjoyed are on CBS. I stopped watching The Good Wife because of the show that belittled openly Sarah Palin. I get sick of entertainment being turned political....I want to escape from the worries of life by being ENTERTAINED, but, NO....liberals have to push their agendas in your face at every opportunity....look at Corben testifying on immigration issues in Congress....what a joke...but, then, that fits because he is talking to a bunch of comedians anyway."

There, fixed it for you.

[donozark]

No Q about it. Clearly anti-Tea Party types. Loved the Bubba who had no ID in his wallet. And no idea, period. Just more Hollyweird insanity.
Sadly, Marg Helgenberger is looking long in the tooth. Maybe if I gave her some of my DNA it would rejuvenate her?

And what’s the “story with Sarah and Grissom’s marriage? She just up and left him?

[Sudetenland]

"I really can't stand Lawrence Fishburne"

You're just a homophobe. That's why you don't like Fishburne. Oh yeah, you're probably a racist too. /sarc

Not a big fan of his either.:)

[thecabal]

Sheesh, they are multiplying now.

I couldn’t stand it before becuase of Grissom’s mocking of all things religious while the show runners had no idea what real science was. The time he “solved” a boat mystery by “modelling” a complex estuary with a round pool and a fan was just the most hilarious of the scientific gaffes.

Now that they aren’t bashing christians so much, I guess they moved on to mainstream america. Hard to believe a TV show can survive making fun of over half the country though.

Who in this country has EVER blown up a police funeral (well, other than, say, the Weatherman that Obama hangs out with?)

[CharlesWayneCT]

Hawaii five-o didn’t seem terribly left-wing. And I can’t imagine Tom Sellack would be in anything overtly left-wing, but I haven’t seen his new show yet.

But those are probably the 1st two CBS shows I’ve watched or planned to watch in the past 5 years.

OK, I admit that when I’m already in the room and my daughter watches “How I Met Your Mother”, I watch it, and it is kind of left-wing but mostly just stupid.

Folks this is how it works. On producer and writers sites an announcement goes out for a prize (money) for the show that depicts a certain opinion or point of view integrated in their show during specific broadcast periods. So writers will write into plot lines some “Womens issue, Warming issues, or anti tea party issue” Then the writers, producer or director will submit their scene to the organizer and a winner determined. The advantage for the sponsor of the contest is that they get a propagandized view point during a specific broadcast or “election period”. This way you propagandize the people on many different shows without it looking like propaganda. Very powerful opinion shifting tool and most people have no idea it is happening.

[Rockingham]

Yup. The plot was idiotic and a smear against the Tea Party and populist conservatism.

[carton253]

I watched it. Since the group doing the bombing is not identified, it would be up to the viewer to determine who they are.

I think you're projecting. :>)

[wbill]

I didn't know that it was back on.

I watch CSI, on and off. Now, it will be off.

Likewise, “Criminal Minds” premier last night showed the Emergency Alert System as a bureaucratic nightmare that was ultimately solved when the Secretary of DHS stepped in personally to cut through all the red tape and get the blonde access to the EAS. Never saw her, the name Napolitalo was never mentioned, but “Thank you, Madame Secretary, thank you!” was repeated several times.

Oh, puhleeeeze...

Colonel, USAFR

And what’s the “story with Sarah and Grissom’s marriage?

I don't recall how they wrote in that she came back. I thought it was temporary, but it seems she's back to stay. The writers seemed to have forgotten to tie up that loose end or I missed the episode where they 'splained it.

Maybe they were too busy trying to figure out how they could shoehorn the teen hearthrob into the storyline before his 15 minutes of fame evaporate and he's tied up off the set in rehab with Lohan and Co.

The one show I watch every week is on CBS...NCIS (the original..not the spinoff.) Good show, great characters, fun plots (Ralph Waite as Gibb’s father was a stroke of casting genius.) The ending to the season opener was amazing.

[RikaStrom]

And what’s the “story with Sarah and Grissom’s marriage? She just up and left him?

It was my understanding that Grissom was in France doing some obscure funding type thing and she didn't want to hang out and wait, therefore coming back to "help" when they were short handed.

SHe probably should have realized that she didn't really want to leave a popular series and suddenly missed the money coming in. She and the dude that plays Nick pulled some contract stunt a couple of years ago and nearly got booted then.

[Wurlitzer]

I stopped watching the only show I liked on the National Barack Channel, Law & Order a few years ago after a series of shows when the predominant theme was evil right wing.

[Free Vulcan]

I prefer NCIS. In fact NCIS is the only current series I watch on TV. Much more conservative.

[Free Vulcan]

The pilot was excellent and refreshing. Let’s hope they don’t crap that up.

[gramho12]

I agree - NCIS premier was great - more like it’s glory days. The last year or so it’s been a little wishy-washy but I loved the ending.

Think of it as the William Ayers "anniversary" show. He retired recently. Yesterday Bobby Kennedy's son, who is on the Board at the University of Illinois, convinced the others to NOT award "Emeritus" to Ayers ~ mostly because Ayers had written a book that praised the man who killed his father.

So, why not ~ CBS celebrates Ayers in its own way ~ an entire political movement made up of mad bombers ~ and all late Middle Aged and/or retired!
