When Conservatives are not on the top they just try harder, when Liberals are not on top they just cry harder.

He's got it backwards. Hitler decided and the Jews reported.

He looks so very angry on the drudge report website.

So - if I understand it correctly...
Michael Moore calls the Insurgents the "MinuteMen who will grow in number, blah, blah, blah and...win"
And now Ted Turner says the only network that is "fair and balanced" is Hitler...
Maybe I'm reading too much into this but am I the only one that thinks the whole grid that leftists see the world through are quite similar to the JerrySeinfeld "BizzaroWorld"...?

Turner just likes to get his name in the news every once in the while.

Since CNN USED to be higher rated, is Ted labeling himself an "Old" Hitlerite?

Well, remember that "NAZI"/"fascist" are leftist speak for "someone I don't like".
When you apply the proper translations, it becomes easier to understand them...

He followed up by pointing out that Adolf Hitler got the most votes when he was elected to run Germany prior to WWII. I wish idiots like Turner would check their facts before opening their pieholes. Hitler did not get "the most votes" in ANY election! Using intimidation, he succeeded in obtaining the appointment to the Chancellorship, but the Nazi Party took over the government through deception and armed force, not with the popular vote. The Nazi party was a large minority in the Bundestag, but it was a minority, nevertheless.
Oh well, just another lying liberal. What a cheap, pseudo-intellectual geek! He should use his mouth only for eating, since his other uses of it seem to be incompetent.

Ever seen Ted Turner interviewed? He's undoubtedly the dumbest self-made billionaire in history. I'm amazed the guy can even feed himself, let alone run major corporations.

Turner makes the same mistakes over and over. Despite his wealth, he has basically lost everything: network, wife, stature, position on board, and team...someday it will all catch up with him and he will see that he really has nothing except the hatred of millions of Americans who are far "richer" than he.

His no-nonsense, humorous approach during the one-hour Q&A generated frequent loud applause and laughter, BROADCASTING & CABLE reports.This statement tells you all you need to know about the leftist mainstream media. Humorous approach? If a conservative compared CNN to Benedict Arnold, would they think that was funny? Doubtful.
BTW, love your handle (loved the book and the movie).

"There's nothing wrong with that. It's certainly legal. But it does pose problems for our democracy. Particularly when the news is dumbed down," leaving voters without critical information on politics and world events and overloaded with fluff," he said. The arrogance of this statement alone leaves me dumbfounded.
For a start, comparing one channel to a Hitler-esque regime is ridiculous, when anyone with a tv can channel hop from their armchair, and expose themselves to all sorts of media.
Not only that but it suggests that the electorate are brain-dead clones, incapable of individual thought. It is this type of arrogance which shows critical flaws in his own thinking.
And besides - this is a changing age in media - where people have libraries in their own living rooms via the internet.

Actually Hitler WAS elected. It's something Germany has to live down.

It was Ted Turner, who in 1992, claimed he wanted to reduce the earth's population to 250 million from 5 billion.
Also, he wanted to take away people's cars and redesign all the nation's cities so we all could walk or ride bikes to work.
Audubon magazine, I believe.
