CNN Slides Ever Lower
Powerline ^

Posted on 02/13/2013 9:09:22 PM PST by chessplayer

There isn’t much left of the CNN brand, but there is still a little room to sink deeper–and today, CNN did. Compare and contrast: CNN’s panel is excited about Chris Dorner. They can understand why lots of people think he is a “superhero.” They think his deeds were “exciting,” like a “Denzel Washington movie,” and agree that Dorner shed valuable light on the critical issue of police brutality. Their panel is more or less a Chris Dorner fan club, with one lonely exception who thinks the most salient fact is that he was a murderer:


TOPICS: News/Current Events
KEYWORDS:
Dorner threatening to kill children:

"I never had the opportunity to have a family of my own, I’m terminating yours. -----, -----, -----, and BOR members Look your wives/husbands and surviving children directly in the face and tell them the truth as to why your children are dead."

And to the media and the left in general,,,he's a hero.

The left had already shown they didn’t care that he had killed innocent people. If Dorner had managed to murder some children, the left would have been ecstatic.

With a media reaction like this, we are lucky he will not go to a trial in a court of law.

That is why I am so glad that POS is glad..can you imagine what would have happened if this had gone to trial, the media circus..it would have made the OJ case look like a walk in the park..here you have the media, protected by armed guards daily, cheering on a cold blooded killer. I wonder how they would have felt if Dorner had killed a member of their family, would they be cheering him then

The Left has always embraced criminals as kindred souls. Lenin embraced Stalin as the “delightful Georgian”. Stalin’s reputation at the time was that of a particularly brutal bank robber and killer. They celebrate cop killers regularly. They form committees to free criminals, lobby for comfortable prisons,”prisoner rights” and decriminalize vile behavior. Liberals have bizarre ideation and values. Conservatives make a bad strategic mistake when they assume there is a commonality of thought when discussing with a Liberal what is “right” or “wrong”.

Does “free mumia” ring a bell? Left do love them some cop-killers.

Well sure... to the Democrats it would merely amount to really late abortions.

Dorner was holed up in a cabin in Big Bear after his Toyota Truck broke an axel (if he would have had a Ford Truck he would still be on the run but that is another story) when two maids came to clean the cabin.

He tied them up and left the cabin in their car. One of the maids got free and called the police. It is interesting that had he killed them he would have had a chance to get far away but instead told them he didn’t want to hurt them and just tied them up.

Every couple of years the Clinton’s/left/dems will select a different news organization to as the one to lead the charge for their dirty tricks campaign of stirring up the racial/civil unrest pot before an election. It’s generally a two ,or thereabout, year cycle.

MSNBC has just finished it’s turn where, among other things, we had the hiring of Al Sharpton and heard the editing of the Trayvon Martin tapes to stir the racial pot.

Now it appears it’s CNN’s turn.

There’s more coming.

Expect CNN to go full bore non stop “Rodney King”.
