Just me?
Or am I the Only one getting sick of CNN's overt propogandizing for the HEz Islamofascists?

It's just you -- everyone else is on Fox where it's often worse :-).

I'm forcing myself to laugh at it. Failing that, I watch old episodes of Babylon 5, where people and aliens who stick up for the bad guys get killed by the end of the show.

Except for G'kar, of course, but he's essential to the script and not portrayed as the gentle protector of all victims, cosmos-wide...

Ah, yes. B5 would be a great improvement over most any current "serious" show. But I'd point out that G'Kar had a major enlightening courtesy of the Vorlons & turned into a strong "good guy", whereas it took, what, a couple seasons at least to dispose of Morden (ends up with his head on a pike, as I recall!)

Best / most believable sci-fi show ever made. Hard to believe the guy who wrote it has some of the views he espouses. And too bad Delenn is a fictional character -- would love to see her light into some of these current network nitwits! (As she in effect does, in a late season 5 episode.)
