PBS not biased. Pope not Catholic. Bear uses men's room. Dems act in the best interest of the American people. Film at 11:00

At the press club, Mitchell said Moyers' reporting on campaign fundraising during the Clinton administration drew strong complaints from Democrats

Clintoon's fundraising was so odious, that Moyer risked losing every shred of journalistic integrity if he didn't report on it. Reporting on Clinton's scandals did not mean that PBS wasn't biased.

i dont have cable and had to watch the Republican convention on PBS. They are definately biased.

[JewishRighter]

good point. but I forgot: when did moyer have a shred of journalistic integrity?

Pat Mitchell has come a long way. I remember her when she was a young, bubble-headed infobabe on local Boston TV news.

[CasearianDaoist]

That is just unbelievable! No wonder we have problems.

[JewishRighter]

And now she's a bubble headed er, uh what exactly?

"PBS does not belong to any one political party," Pat Mitchell said.

Well, that's true. There's the Dems, the Greens, the Socialist Workers Party....

[JewishRighter]

Worker's party, Hezbollah, Communist Party, Geez these people really know how to party.

Now she's an old, bubble-headed leftist in charge of a network on the Public teat.

Despite what people think, PBS stations are run by individual companies that are awarded contracts to run the PBS station, the companies themselves are for profit. With 800 satellite and cable channels out there, there is no longer any justification for subsidizing any of their content. Not to mention they show commercials now, so whats the difference between PBS and every other media company?

[ScholarWarrior]

She's right. It's not one party.

It's the Democratic party. The Green party. The Labour party. The Socialist party. The Nazi party. The Communist party. The Liberal party.

"PBS does not belong to any one political party," Pat Mitchell said.

Of course not. That's ridiculous. It is shared by the Democrats, the Green Weenies, the Feminazis, the American Socialists, the International Workers of the World, the Communist Party of America, the Black Panther Party, the Tupperware Party, the Gaggle of Loons, Four Calling Birds, and a Partridge in a Pear Tree.

The only group that DOESN'T have a voice is mainstream America. You know, the people who PAY for it.

Great. The Alfred E. Newman defense. "What, me biased?"

"PBS does not belong to any one political party," Pat Mitchell said.

This is one statement I agree with....Dems, Socialist Democratic Party , Communist Party USA.

<Not to mention they show commercials now, so whats the <difference between PBS and every other media company?

Hmmmm. Could it be that they get most of their "news" from the offices of the DNC?

[yarddog]

I wonder if she burst out laughing after saying that PBS is not biased?

[JewishRighter]

That's the amazing thing about these people. They can really say this stuff with a straight face, because they live in a liberal bubble, free of facts and logic or opposing points of view.

"PBS does not belong to any one political party," Pat Mitchell said.

Though I do recall a case of them sharing donor lists in Massechussets with the DEMOCRATS. Funny, that never happened with Republicans.
