AMAZINGLY Biased 60 Minutes Piece
CBS | 04-14-02 | CBS

Posted on 04/14/2002 4:35:27 PM PDT by keithtoo

60 Minutes has a piece on right now about Enron and their power plant fiasco in India - starting in 1993!. NO MENTION WHATSOEVER of the Clinton Administration's complicity in this sham!!! They did find time to mention occurences that have lapped over into the last few months involving the Bush administration though! What a crock!

What are you doing watching that program? I just had a bowel movement that I enjoyed a hell of a lot more than watching 60 Lies.

Please tell me that you were watching the Masters and just left CBS on to see 60 Years (the show is so awful that it seems like 60 years) for old time's sake.

Silly Minutes is totally irrelevant. Howard Stern has a greater audience.

Don Hewitt will have to kiss my lily-white ass in the town square on Sunday--and scratch me a fat check--before I'll tune in to anything produced by his 'news' organization. [spit]

I was just walking past the TV, that happened to have 60 Minutes on. Even Steve Kroft now looks like he's 85 years old. Don Hewitt must have discovered the Fountain of Old. I'm amazed Meredith Viera doesn't look like Helen Thomas now after her stint with those old farts.

"You know it was strong medicine the way I edited it but he was a very sick candidate. He needed very strong medicine, and I'm not in the business of doctoring candidates but he got up out of a sick bed that night and walked to the nomination and as I said to Mandy, 'You know if I'd edited it your way, you know where you'd be today? You'd still be up in New Hampshire looking for the nomination.' He became the candidate that night."
- Don Hewitt, commenting on the 1992 60 Minutes interview with the Clintons.

I saw it also. It was amazing. The entire 1993-2001 period was covered with hardly a mention of the word "Clinton." But when they covered the first six months of 2001 we got to see full-screen images of GWB and Cheney.

The stones these people have.

Oh yes, they were very sure to mention that "the Bush administration is trying to collect the bill from India". Mention of the Clinton administration, the one that put the screws to India in the first place? If one occurred, I missed it. And I was listening. Unfortunately. Grrr!

If you would like to be sickened further, Linda Ellerbee is doing a "Nick News" special on Media Bias. Nickelodeon, 8:30.
