MRC Alert: Jennings Told: Nobody Likes You

I can't stand to listen to Mark Davis (local "conservative" talk show host on Rush station)

I like Mark Davis, he is usually right on, and doesn't let stupidity go unchallenged.

Jennings lost me long ago, when the Nicarauguan people threw Ortega out. The look on his face when he was forced to read it on the air was disbelief and total disdain, as if he knew better than those people what was good for them. That unguarded moment showed what I'd already suspected - that he feels the same way about the U.S. electorate.

Here's a link to the Dallas Morning News report:

Turning the Tables: Journalists grilled on coverage of terrorism in local forum (Jennings' Waterloo)

[AmericanVictory]

We make two points:

One: Mr. Jennings is the perfect example of the socialist penchant for achieving status by dynastic appointment rather than by merit. Had his father not been a top executive in the media it is unlikely he would have his position.

Second: The War of 1812 is history, just as the Crusades are; the world has moved on. If Mr. Jennings (who refuses to get U.S. citizenship) wishes to re-fight the events of 1812 (which Canadian textbooks represent as their victory rather than the stalemate it was in the north) then he should return to Canada and do so instead of acting as an anachronistic fifth column here.

It's about time that Jennings had his remarks questioned! I was watching that broadcast, and I was in a state of disbelief. A little later in the same broadcast, Jennings revealed the "probable location" of Vice President Cheney. I think Jennings was trying to feed the President's location to the Terrorist in the hope that they would take out President Bush!! Obviously, he was throwing a fit, because he couldn't do it. Jennings should be jailed for high treason at the very least!!!

Ha, thats funny, I think the windsocks are powered by Mark Davis. That guy talks around every side of a point for 5 minutes and then gives the caller 2 seconds to respond before talking over the caller again. Perhaps the most annoying radio style I've ever heard, shoulda been cited for excessive abuse of voice inflection. But his political views are ok. I think a lot of people are bitter about his position on stem cell research(not a child until the egg implants in the wall of the womb, or something to that effect).

I feel better, for awhile there thought that I might be the only one who can't stand to listen to Mark Davis. Gary McNamara isn't much better, but that new guy on 570, Greg Knapp is pretty good.

But no one holds a candle to the schlock-meister himself, the king of hokie, the guy who makes even soccer moms gag, Marty Griffin.

Yep.

The public chastising of Jennings is being discussed in the ABC news bulletin board here.

(My comments are under "teenie_weenie_1").

Just posted this on another thread:

The guy who confronted Jennings called into the Mark Davis show just a few minutes ago. (I was reminded why I quit listening to Davis.)

He said he was just wandering into the Cowboy game when PJ stopped him to talk to him. He said (I think his name was Steve), that he doesn’t particularly care for him. He told Peter, responding to a question about life getting back to normal after 9/11, things would be easier without the media fanning the flames. He told PJ, “I don’t like you and I don’t respect you. He then refused to shake Peters hand.

Mark Davis began to scold the guy for acting “snotty”and “rude.”

The guy stood his ground, although he did concede that Dallas conservative might have been better served with a more polite approach.

They (Steve? And Mark Davis) ended the call amicably.

I can’t stand Mark Davis.

Ambush in Dallas huh...?

Why does that sound familiar?
