there are many threads cataloging the CBS debacle.

I just expected at least three new threads announcing the FOXNEWS story.

Stymie wore the bowler hat.

Didn't Stymie wear the little bowler-type hat? That's definitely Buckwheat in the pic.

Yes, your are correct. Here's more about that:

Stymie (Matthew Beard) - (1/1/25 - 1/8/81) - Stymie had a troubled adult life with crime and drugs. In later life he finally cleaned up his act, and made appearances on Sanford & Son. Both he and his father, Matthew Sr., a minister in Los Angeles, were born on New Year's Day. Stymie's trademark bowler was actually one of comedian Stan Laurel's hats which accounts for it's oversize. In 1981 he suffered a stroke, contracted pneumonia, and died at USC Medical Center. His last words were: "Fun, fun, fun...Had a lot of fun."

While we might like to think we killed or mortally wounded the old media with the exposure of this fraud, unfortunately we have not.

to the contrary, They will now most likely feel liberated since we have stripped their mask away.

CBS doesn't have to pretend to be fair any more since it is now crystal clear that they are not. Look at Tuesday's "Secret Draft" scam, there is no pretense there, they are trying scare voters to vote for Kerry.

Hell they haven't even fired those culpable for their massive fraud.

They are not about to lose their bias anytime soon.

Is the liberal media dead? Of course not.

No, but if you look in your rearview mirror, you can see it floppin' around on the road pretty good.

Ah, yes! Farina. It's an understandable mixup.
