I got another one for you. I don't know if it was bias, but it sure seemed strange at the time...

We were scheduled to be at Weehawken Park on top of the Lincoln Tunnel with our US Flag Balloon around June 13th or so. We would be putting up the Flag Balloon and about 40 first responders from 9/11 would be there, the National Guard, a bag pipe band, fire trucks, & police cars, and the mayor of Weehawken. This was a tribute to the 1st responders of 9/11 and the people that they lost to the terrorists.

The Today Show contacted the promoter of the event and secured the exclusive for the Weehawken coverage. They sent a crew out the day before, they told us that Al Roker would be coming out and they would be doing a weather thing. At about 6:00 PM the night before, the promoter calls us and says the the Today Show cancelled because they were keeping the entire Today Show open for breaking news on the Elizabeth Smart case. At that point, it was too late for him to get any of the other shows out there. I thought well, if there is breaking news, why aren't they breaking it? Anyway, the day of the event, Al Roker was covering a golf tournament, and there was no breaking news on Elizabeth Smart.

The Today Show missed an incredible tribute, and all of the men and women that were there were so appreciative of the balloon. It was very touching. We took everyone up in the balloon and brought them down again. It was great to see so many of them almost brought to tears by the sight of the balloon right across the river from where the towers used to stand.

It was wierd to say the least. Maybe they kept the Elizabeth Smart breaking news for a slower news day.

What you have stated is all part of a GROWING TREND among the liberals as we approach the anniversary of 9-11. What they are doing is trying to get away from any "overly patriotic" ceremonies or from assigning blame for 9-11. We already see that in the "non-judgemental" guidelines for teaching about 9-11 just issued by the NEA and in the attempt by that money grubbing Matt Lauer (he doesn't actually have much in the way of political beliefs---he just wants those network dollars) to promote a singer and a song glorifying the terrorists.

Hey Matt! If they paid you enough, would you promote a singer glorying those terrorists who chopped off Daniel Pearl's head?

Remember one IMPORTANT thing about Matt Lauer. It isn't really the politics that ultimately matters to him---It's how much he gets paid. Lauer will do ANYTHING for the money.

p.s. And I am praying that when Lauer's wife leaves him, she hits him up for some buku bucks---That would really hurt Lauer where he hates it worst...in the wallet.

I'm never too upset about what is said or done on the "Today Show". All of those network shows are showing their a$$es on TV, butt (har, har) Perkie Katie did them one better! Socialist elistist dirvel...don't watch...never will, and most of America is joining me. I sure hope Katie saved/invested that big contract $$$. I sincerely doubt she'll get another one!

Maybe she could run for the Senate from NY...........Upps, that job is taken!!!
