DAN RATHER PROTESTOR INTERRUPTS CNN LIVE SHOT ('Stop Ran Rather Now' on Judy Woodruff's show)
National Debate ^ | 9/22/04 | Robert Cox

Posted on 09/22/2004 4:45:17 PM PDT by Cableguy

Judy Woodruff is set up next to the next CNN Election Express outside the Palm Beach County Convention Center where she is being persistantly shouted down by an anti-Dan Rather protestor who is repeatedly shouting "Stop Dan Rather Now!" This guy has a booming voice.

Mike McCurry did his best to keep a straight face during his interview sitting next to Woodruff.

Nancy Pelosi had a better time of it doing a remote from Capital Hill.

Roy Blount too Pelosi's seat and the guy just kept on yelling. I make it about 60 chants of "Stop Ran Rather Now!"

He is also mixing in something about "democrats."

h/t Oliver Willis for helping sort out what he is saying.

Judy Woodruff finally acknowledged they guy saying that for those wondering what you are hearing is a guy who shows up at a lot of poltical events in Florida and makes alot of noise.

Can't he make his point, and leave after he is heard? It's not cool to disrupt people trying to do a program discussing other issues. Maybe I don't understand what the situation was they were doing the program under, I guess it was a public location. This would piss me off if someone disrupted an interview I was interested in.

This guy was yelling constantly at the top of his lungs for an hour and a half. I'll give him credit for endurance.

I guarantee you that Pelosi would be stonefaced no matter where she was. I've never seen her smile.

I love FReeps, but I also like it when someone gets to speak. I don't like it when our side gets shouted down.

I think we should all be shouting out there... Stop Dan Rather and Mary Mapes ... CBS the DNC's very own Pravda. Make your voice heard anyway you can, wherever you can.

She can't move her face - too much cosmetic surgery and Botox.

Dan Rather is going to let the CBS producer fall on her sword for him. He is a coward, good for that man making himself heard. Which one of you Freepers is watching CNN anyway, I hope its "OPPOSITION RESEARCH" your doing and not revealing your closet tendency to watch left leaning news channels. Mount my brother (or Sister) CNN has no legit commentary. Period!!
Thats My opinion anyway, I could be wrong.
