Just went over to DU's Latest Breaking News thread for a peek. Gad, you should see a little of it:
Nambe posted: "(Dixie Chicks)...Turns out the whole thing was orchestrated by the National Republican Party. Party operatives spammed thrir (sic) email lists the day after Maines made her statement, urging them to contact radio stations."
Gad, I didn't get my e-mail!
LyndaG posted: "Natalie Maines has real courage. I read on one of those entertainment websites that she said recently that the more flak she receives for those comments, the prouder she is. Bless her!!!"
Maudlin posted: "If I were a Dixie Chick- I'd be on the phone to a lawyer right now. Either that or standing in front of a mirror naked, haven't made up my mind."
Glad I don't have to look in her mirror!
Democat posted: "...The right wing owns the media in the U.S. and the left has no chance of getting any real power until that is changed.
Even if, somehow, a Democrat could win the White House, the media would destroy them just like they tried to do to Clinton..."
Wow, is this one out to lunch!
aquart posted: "It's always been like this. The press, now the media, has never been liberal. Only the rich can afford to own a newspaper.
Reporting has always been like this. Actually, it's gotten a bit better. I had to research 1875 newspapers once and they put the editorials right into the news articles. I was quite shocked at the brazenness of it."
"a quart" new ID should add "low" at the end.
snippy posted: "There is a definite and well organized political strategy in the republican party to campaign on the basis that democrats are not good Americans. It is based on the success of the campaign to convince Germans that jews were not good Germans in the 1930's."
Yep, just like DU protests.
Hehehe....
