Various big media television networks ^ | 13 November 2005 | Various Self-Serving Politicians and Big Media Screaming Faces

[Alas Babylon!]

As always, soliciting FReeper comments, observations, and opinions.

Dean and Mehlman both on Russert!!! Dean refuses to be on together with Mehlman! Of course NBC agrees to this. Will Timmy scowl at Mehlman while cheerfully questioning Dean?

McCain returns from last week. Didn’t we hear enough last Sunday?

Biden’s and Hagel (Bagel) are no shows!

Schumer does it three weeks in a row now.

[SE Mom]

***Dean and Mehlman both on Russert!!! Dean refuses to be on together with Mehlman!***

Yeah. I saw this thread earlier.

DNC CHAIRMAN "CHICKEN LITTLE" HOWARD DEAN REFUSES TO APPEAR ON SET WITH RNC CHAIR

McCain gave a major speech (aren't they all decribed that way by media) the other day, giving directions (!) of how war should be conducted. He often forgets that he lost the election to Bush.

Drudge says Screamer Dean is refusing (or afraid of) to sit with Calmer Mehlman. Russert & Steffy are stuffing their show with King & Queen of Jordon to extract something, anything agianst Bush's WOT, Iraq or ANY policy. Mr. Russert, enjoy all you can, WHILE you can (especially when Drudge has insiders on Russert's team).

[MEG33]

I'll try..I have some other things going this morning where I will be interrupted.

[cardinal4]

Good morning!

[txradioguy]

Good morning MEG...good to see you.

[rodguy911]

Thanks for the thread as usual AB. We do appreciate your work and input every week.

Dean is so phony and such a weakling he knows Ken Mehlman would kick his butt all over the screen and it wouldn't look good for the rats. So he chose to hide behind Timmy's huge, girthy skirt.

Just watched a guy from USA Today, Richard Benedetto on C-Spin--he must be near retirement, talking about the things he did.
The guy actually advocated printing what spokespeople say as news!! He clearly doesn't get the msm agenda. He also said that he understands Scott mc Clellan. Time for this guy to go. How can he possibly be an msm member.

[cardinal4]

Good Morning, Rodguy! This morning ought to be good, Mehlman and Dean. Ill bet Mehlman goes on first so Dean wont get rebutted. Screamer Dean-the true voice, er, crescendo of the Democrat Party..

* These media mavens want new blood in the WH. Actually, where the new blood needed is in the WH Press Core.
* Every 4 or 8 years a new team comes to the WH.
* Same, Old, Tired, Arrogant Press core that NEVER changes
* NEVER reports news TRUTHFULLY without spin
* NEVER care to research subjects, just READ stories from NYSlimes, Wash.Compost or DNC as news
* Whether they travel around the world with Potus or with other world leaders -
* NEVER ask questions about that subject or countries they are in but stick with those liberal slimes.
* To spin the news as they like, use words like Pres. refused to say (here fill-in whatever you want to say), aknowledges, admits, sidesteps.
* NEVER appreciate or applaud however great the Pres. or US achieves. * Ever watched how some of the foreign press respects our Pres., even give applause & ovation?
* Any one is going to miss Helen, Gregory or Moron?

[rodguy911]

I watched F&F for a few minutes and quite frankly would have preferred dead air. They have definitely gone back to their normal weekend programming format; nothing plus nothing =nothing.

[syriacus]

Thanks, Alas Babylon!

[Bahbah]

Will Timmy scowl at Mehlman while cheerfully questioning Dean?

LOL. Yes.

[MNJohnnie]

Wow! CSPAN is actually quite good today except for this little bit of open proagandizing for the Dinasour Media. Yeah, Mr "Flush the Koran" Isikoff from Newsweak, really should be speaking to a Journalists "Professional Affairs Committee"
