Average Americans Frustrated with American Press

When I read in the newspapers or hear on the news that we killed "13 innocent civilians ...." I want to go berzerk.

So how many innocents were killed in NYC?

Can you imagine these spoiled media b***heads dealing with reality back in WW II? ....

Just wait until the first real bio attack in the U.S. kills about 100,000 innocent people .... These idiots will be dragged out of their fancy German cars by mobs and beaten half-to-death with shoes and umbrellas.

I say boot them all off the air. And the head of ABC deserves a power kick in his @ss with an iron boot. Good riddance to stupid PC rubbish!

>>>"I guess they've forgotten the events of Sept. 11, when thousands of civilians here died for no apparent reason," Sam Marino, 25, a bartender at the Franklin Steak House and Tavern in Nutley, N.J., says <<<

Perhaps they need to read yesterdays thread everyday.

We have to assume these guys have the ratings - it's easier to pressure their advertisers than to wait indefinitely for the ratings to go down. Paraphrasing Ann Coulter, soccer moms and linear thinking do not go hand in hand.

If anyone needs proof that the "news" isn't, one only needs to listen to the Jennings thing about the probable booing the President would receive. Clearly Jennings doesn't report he predicts. News forcasters have less credibility and accuracy than the weather forcasters, that's why we don't watch them for "news". Great "reporting" Jennings, great.

>>"listen to the Jennings thing"<<<

Jennings Thing! Perfect. Thus his name shall be in my book!
Like the creature from the black lagoon.

I think the man, er THING is either
A. On heavy psychotic drugs
B. A "Stepford" offspring
or
C. Beyond hope.

Insesitive, unpatriotic, and devoid of any intellingence, MY sentiments exactly ! In fact I find I can no longer watch the briefings from getting so upset with the press. Rumsfeld and Ari Fleisher have the patience of a Saint.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To: DreamWeaver I agree completely!

Most people I know also feel the same way. It is amazing just how out of touch the press is on how the American " citizens " across this land feels. They are way out in left field and don't even know it.

Yes Nick, sad when puppies die. What about all the puppies dead on the roadways of America. Sounds like a 20/20 spot for sure(no offense to all dogs named Spot). The news flash to the American "press" today should be: We have met the enemy and he is not us.

clinton is a congenital liar. The press loves him

The taliban are congenital liers. The press loves them.

President Bush tells the truth. The press hates him.

Rush, like all conservatives, tells the truth. The press hates him.

See the pattern? The press hates the truth.

God Save America (Please)

[skeeter]

Yep. Never forget the news media swallowed the Clinton/Albright lies re: Kosovo "genocide", the very reason for our involvement there, without question.

They are beneath contempt.

[Bigg Red]

Overall, the Washington press corps is a disgrace.

And apparently in possession of the same short attention span as the rest of the left. Most of them are saying, "Waah! It's been four whole weeks and the war isn't over yet! Fortunately, most Americans have more sense than those girlie men and manly women.

[Bigg Red]

Oops! Forgot to close the quote there! Should be

"....and the war isn't over yet!" Fortunately,...

[ClancyJ]

Maybe Fox is beginning to wake up. I just wrote two emails about them putting on Dr. Paul Walker who proceeded to tell exactly where our biochemical weapons and waste products were stored, how secure, weaknesses in the security and all. All terrorists were taking notes I'm sure.

The media needs to realize that they have a massive tool - the press - and to use it as they are is endangering their own families and all American citizens.

The media plus our homegrown enemies and the cell plants in the US may be all terrorists need to defeat the superpower of the world. They won't even need the extravagant flying machines, the super weapons and the numbers of soldiers - you see they have our press as spies for them.

[eureka!]

Here you go...

Bad Press, no barking! Great Post, John O

[SuziQ]

Goran takes issue with most of the questions posed by the press corps, calling them "insensitive, unpatriotic and devoid of any intelligence."

Nahh! Ya think?!
