It seems that in the last two days, everytime I switched on ABC News coverage, Peter Jennings was spewing some criticism of the president. Now I like Canadians just as much as the next guy but I've had just about a belly-full of this assho!e. And I'm sure I'm not alone.
Email ABC News by clicking here and let them know that you don't appreciate some high school drop-out like Peter Jennings criticizing your president when Jennings isn't even a citizen of the United States.
I am absolutely sickened by the biased, unintelligent, and thoughtless coverage by Peter Jennings on the attack on the US.
His constant questioning regarding the 'mental capacity' of President Bush totally undermines this country, especially in a time when the country needs to be united behind the President. In addition, Mr. Jennings continual whining regarding not knowing where the President was in route to yesterday was incredibly selfish, unintelligent, thoughtless, and just plain stupid. If the average American can understand why his whereabouts are not revealed, then why and the world can't a national television news anchor? And now that we know that Air Force One and the White House were targets, Mr. Jennings thoughtless whining makes me sick.
I vowed to never watch your network after the election coverage and made the mistake of tuning in yesterday when I thought I'd see objective coverage.
I will not make that mistake again.
I intended to do this, and you have made it easier. It's done. I feel better.
jennings sucks!
Definitly, a change of diet is indicated.
Re: Peter Jennings
If this sorry excuse you call a news anchor cannot even set aside his obvious dislike for our President during a time of national crisis he should be removed from the air. This is a time for our country to be united - not divided. Even former President Clinton and former Vice President Gore spoke yesterday about the country rallying behind the President. That this was a time for our country to band together and to give the President time to form a plan of action. And, further, that they were confident that he would do what was right for the country. I believe they meant the entire country and not just the Republicans.
To hear this obvious hatred and more to the point, obvious attempt to continue to divide our country now is unacceptable. Peter Jennings and the ABC news is permanently tuned out at my house starting immediately. There is time enough before 2004 to play these partisian political games. Do the country and yourselves a favor and send him back to Canada.
Mr. Jennings is a pretentious, condescending, uninformed, arrogant, unpatriotc, twit.
Mr. Jennings remarks on air during this crisis are most unbecoming, unashamedly biased and go beyond being partisan, into the realm of the unpatriotic, except Mr. Jennings is not an American, but a Canadian, nad a poorly educated,(this writer has four degrees, and two Ivy affiliations, so he knows a college drop-out like Mr. Jennings when he sees one) but stubbornly condescending and arrogant one, to boot.
Mr. Jennings was rude to Sen. Hatch, campaigned on-air for the last two days for the return of Bill Clinton, criticized numerous times President Bush in a time of National crisis and emergency and is imply OUT OF CONTROL.
He is also OUT OF TOUCH with the sensibilities of most Americans by ctiticising the President, especially in this time of crisis.
Most anchor-men would be too embarassed or reticent to so overtly and arrogantly portray their love of a disreputable ex-president whicle criticizing an honorable and good man like Mr. Bush in a time of WAR.
Mr. Jennings has beeen on air and in "power" too long and now suffers teh Geraldo-Bryant Gumbel raging, but unwarranted, ego syndrome.
Isn't it high time you put Mr. Jennings out to pasture?
P.S. If Brian Williams is a candidate, he utterly disqualified himself yesterday with reports of his rude, impudnet, inapproriate, arrogant, churlish, unpatriotic, and biased performance in an interview with Counselor to the President Karen Hughes yesterday in which he reportedly said to her re: Pres. Bush:
"Maybe he doen't know who the customers are"
(because Presidnet Bush wasn't personally available at that very moment for an exclusive interview with Mr. Williams, but ws attending to National security issues at the time).
Go back to Canada Jennings you anti-American socialist pig.
I hate to tell the man he is not a god...
BTW, I'll be watching FOX and I won't be supporting your sponsors.
I haven't watched network news in years, but recent events have required that I do so. It's fascinating to see what passes for intelligent commentary among the "Big Three" anchors.Peter Jennings is in a class by himself.
After looking passed Jennings' perfectly coifed hair and handsome visage, after listening closely to his mellifluous voice and superficially eloquent grammar, one comes hard upon his tenth grade education.
He is a bozo whose next original thought will be his first.
