I saw this. Stephi was actually better than you give him credit for - it's not just the words that matter, but the intonation. For example, "That's a pretty harsh charge" was more of a lead-in for Nickle's next statement to qualify, and was spoken more as a question. Also, what is biased about the two questions you cited?

Stephanopoulos: "Finally, Mr. McDermott, before you left for Baghdad, you said 'the President of the United States will lie to the American people in order to get us into this war.' Do you really believe that?"

Stephanopoulos: "But do you have any evidence the President has lied?"

Those seem pretty straitforward to me, and they definitely put the guys on the spot.

Thanks, William! What a fabulous graphic!

This weeks Talking point to the CCRM Talk Radio mailing list:

America's talking about..... George Stephanopoulous

"When George Stephanopoulos was made anchor of ABC's This Week, a Sunday morning news program, media bias activists were quick to express contempt for ABC's decision. The idea that Clinton's former spinmeister could morph from liberal propagandist to balanced journalist seemed both laughable and sinister."

"This is a perfect example of why the media bias community has objected to ABC's choice of George Stephanopoulos as the anchor of This Week. He is far too liberal in his personal beliefs to have any sense of balance between left and right. The only news he should be allowed to touch is the newspaper that arrives on his front step every morning!"

Visit Fairpress.org for the complete article.

"America Is Talking About" is a talking point intended to focus for a moment or so the power of talk radio on the bias of the mainstream media about.......George Stephanopoulos

[Wolfstar]

I've already joined this effort by not tuning into This Week ever since they made the announcement that Georgie Poo would be the anchor of the show.

[E.G.C.]

I'll go ahead and bump this. Thanks Peacerose for the bump and the article.

Folks, please remember to support CCRM as they continue their efforts to expose the establishment for what they are. Their website is one of the best and most informative places to visit on the issue of media bias.
Regards.

I hope little Georgie's ears are burning!

[Peacerose]

You're right - it is a media event to be missed.

[A Vast RightWing Conspirator]

I don't like Stephanopulos and I don't whatch ABC Sunday but the Steph's interview seems pretty straightforward. I find the comentator who tries to indict him for this particular show quite hysterical.

[RAT Patrol]

I sent my letter.

[Paleo Conservative]

George Will ought to leave ABC and move to FOX.

[TheGrimReaper]

George Will slapped little Georgie around pretty good on the 10/6 program, though. In fact, little Georgie was so stunned, he had to cop-out with "Well, that's all the time we have for this week".

Once a Klinton sycophant - always a Klinton sycophant.

Media Bias Outrage of the Week - George
Stephanopoulos Shows His True Colors

Truly Outrageous Media Bias......
Revolves around Bonior and McDermott in Baghdad.

Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my General Interest ping list!. . .don't be shy.

[Blue Screen of Death]

Hey, this would be serious if ABC were a news orginization. However, it has become clear that they are really a platform for sitcoms, game shows, and leftist propaganda. I don't think we should hold ABC to the same standard we would a real news source.

[2timothy3.16]

Sorry, my dog just did a George Stephanopoulos

[Landru]

"I don't think we should hold ABC to the same standard we would a real news source."

Just one chink here, BSoD.
There really aren't any others to hold a standard to, anymore.

We've all this "standard," & only clowns to choose from amounst. :o)
