I never watch Keith’s show either, but I was clicking through the channels the other day and watched the olberidiot do his worst person of the day. However, this time, he did something different. He named Heraldo Rivera the BEST person of the day because he went after O’Reilly.
I’m glad to see the Olberidiot ratings going down; but he is still the highest rated show on MSNBC. Which says alot about that station. HA
I won’t hold my breath.
I think Rush has hit that point too. News editors don’t have to including every opposing viewpoint...especially if those points of view are...shall we say ludicrously irrelevant and easily shown as being false.
Excellent post and very accurate.
FNC went liberal because they hired a who crew of people from NBC a few years back.
You also have a foreign correspondent who is married to a NYT reporter.
FNC has the same “let me in” desire to protect their access to the swanky parites with the beautiful political people.
They can’t write a bad story about hilary clinton if they are going to her party next week.
Before the mid terms all the warnings about Pelosi fell on deaf ears to many voters because they knew so little about her. That won’t be the case next year.
I turned on FNS just in time to hear Newt say that AG Gonzalez should go = he mishandled yada yada. Chris Wallace responded that he had little left to ask [The Lizard] after Newt’s slam.
Have I said on this thread how little respect I have for Newt Gingrich!
How idiotic, that President Bush is going to start more Senate confirmation hearings in the seventh year of his office. Good grief!
Schumer would just use another pretext to stay on the attack against the Republicans if he did not have the issue of the District Attorneys.
We saw this play for years in Maryland when our R governor replaced some people that were his to replace. Now we have a D governor and everyone that our previous governor appointed is being replaced and nary a word about it in the news.
Unfortunately I think some liberal ones consider anything outside of their world view to be just that.
Bingo! Balanced to the point of absurdity.
IOW she’s so strong she has to hide behind her own skirt.
But at the same time the thought of someone like Hillary getting yet another shot at the oval office scares the daylights out of me.
Of course Al Gore ripped the media for doing that. Although in his case it was because the media dared give global warming skeptics a chance to air their views.
That’s exactly what Hillary will do when she gets in trouble.
We need serious educational reform. Maybe then the next generation of journalists will understand their function is to present the news...and not just function as cheerleaders for one political point of view.
“Trying to replace Condi was a classic error and will haunt her until 08 and hopefully beyond”
Yep, the country is getting a real good idea what democratic leadership, particularly by a WOMAN, looks like.
Dreadful!!!!
