Conservative Blogger Faces Criticism Over Protege

But they still have 15 million a year to pay Katie.

[Tribune7]

Hope and change hits CBS.

[Izzy Dunne]

The thing is, there's not a single sign that ANY of them has the faintest clue about why it's happening.

Blame it on the economy.

Blame it on the Internet.

Blame it on Bush.

Blame it on Moonves.

Blame it on Dan Rather.

Blame it on the bloggers.

Blame it on the advertisers.

BUT DON'T BLAME ME!

It’s not you, was the message, it’s us.

"... and yet we're keeping our jobs."

Well, it's all of you. But the idiots who refuse to accept that CBS is a liberal joke upon broadcasting are the ones still there, sending others home to uncertain futures.

But, at least Katie is covered.

[qwertypie]

Cosmic justice for liberal crusaders. Canned. Fired. Sacked.

[bikerman]

Sniff! Sniff!

[detective]

The CBS employees are like suicide bombers. They don't care if they destroy their own lives and their own careers as long as hurt good people and America itself in the process. All the MSM are like that. Well you sleezeballs, you have spent years undermining and destroying good honest people and have worked to tear down and destroy our great country. Now you can spend the rest of your life unemployed before you spend an eternity in hell.

One news person said about recent elections, “The people are furious at politicians.” Maybe they missed the part “AND with the MSM” that cover up for Edwards, Climate Change/Global Warming, Klinton in the Oval sex shop, pork spending and other related stories too important to tell. We are furious and the Tea Parties and one example.

[SanFranDan]

Big smug grin, on this cold day, reading about the sad plight of these worthless, newly out of a job, propagandists.

Thank you ABB!

[pepperdog]

And there are those who complain about how much executives of productive companies are paid. Weird isn’t it?

[jersey117]

Layoffs at CBS as they sugar coat job losses and tell us all how well obamanomics is working. How ironic.

[jersey117]

But they still have 15 million a year to pay Katie.

That's way too much money for one person to make. I think obama should slap a special "anchor tax" on her.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

What about the collection of cadavers on 60 Minutes ?

This Is CNN
Is there still a market for a cable news station that tries not to take sides?

Maybe she needs to have another on-air colonoscopy to help the ratings. On second thought - maybe not.

The Latvian bodybuilder with the map of Swizerland on his back was pretty cool though.
