Fast AndFurious Watch: No Coverage From NBC Nightly News In All of 2011

It’s been a very busy week for Operation Fast and Furious. Last Friday, the Department of Justice dumped 1400 pages of documents on Congress. On Saturday we learned US undercover drug agents laundered money for Mexican drug cartels. Wednesday we learned they were using Fast and Furious to make a case for gun regulations. Thursday was a big day because Attorney General Eric Holder testified in front of the House Judiciary Committee.

Sharyl Attkisson, Matthew Boyle, Katie Pavlich, and Cam Edwards did a great job covering all of these stories. Other Old Media outlets covered them but buried them deep in their websites and newspapers. Two news organizations didn’t report on any of these. One of them is NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams. Cam Edwards appears to be right. NBC will do anything to avoid mentioning Operation Fast and Furious. Then again, they haven’t mentioned Fast and Furious ONCE all year, but this past week would have been the best time.

What a disgrace.

Instead, Brian introduced NBC’s new stringer, Ted “thousand pound ego” Koppel who featured a blindingly obvious story out of Iraq and wrapped up the show with Clinton spawn's return to Arkansas.

It really was astounding.

NBC = Nutjobs for Barack the Commie

It’s more than a disgrace. It’s criminal.

[Diogenesis]

they did not cover Freddie Mac honestly because
David Gregory’s wife is their lawyer.

perhaps someone’s spouse is involved in
Fast and Furious.

Could be.
Was NBC taking pictures of the murders?

No Coverage From NBC Nightly News
WTH cares about NBC? The few who still watch it already drank Zero's Kool-Aid.
They're brain dead but just don't know it.

Pity the poor fools who trust NBC Nightly News to keep them informed. Brian Williams is a black eye on the ‘news’ business as his main concern is protecting Obama.

[MestaMachine]

Another bizarro truth from the alterverse.

NBC = GE = Jeff Immelt = Obama = billions for GE = NBC

“Then again, they haven’t mentioned Fast and Furious ONCE all year, but this past week would have been the best time.”

Can you imagine the kind of contempt Brian Williams (Mr. Bowing Journolister) has for his audience?

What contempt he must have for the consumer of “his product.”

He must truly detest his audience.

His one and only job is to inform his customers of the news, of current events and he can’t or won’t do it.

He must have a visceral hate for the poor schlubs who depend on him to give them briefings on important matters of the day.

A nation wide boycott of the sponsors of ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN might get their attention, especially if we stick to it and tell them why. They should remove their one sided political views from their news report and just report the news as is.

It’s more than a disgrace. It’s criminal.

During the 1990's the St Louis Post-Dispach took a hard left turn in its reporting.

Today their parent company filed for bankruptcy.

How much did The St Louis Post-Dispach aka The St Louis Post-Disgrace contribute to the bankruptcy, who knows?

There is a lot of truth in the old saying:

What goes around, comes around.

[Freedom56v2]

Sadly, I am not surprised :(

[manic4organic]

Looks like Sheryl Atkisson with CBS is the only one with balls at the MSM.

[Qbert]

Bump.

[Smokin' Joe]

Is Brian the guy who controls what goes on or is he just another talking head newsreader following the script? Either way, if they aren’t telling the story, who needs ‘em?

[sarasmom]

Who cares?
