Another thread is reporting that CNN kicked out of Iraq. Guess CNN makes them ill too.

I've been flipping back and forth between the cable news channels, and I'd rate Fox #1, MSNBC at a surprising #2, and the Crescent News Network at #3....
....but unfortunately #1 among captive audiences whose workplaces beam CNN constantly in breakrooms.

Paula Zahn just reported that the CNN crew have been kicked out of Baghdad by the Iraqi regime. They were told to hit the road to Jordan!!
To: Adam-ondi-Ahman
Just saw Paula Zahn say: "... troop in Umm QSAR [emphasis on SAR], or Umm Qsar [emphasis on Q] as some of the locals call it." Too bad the people of the town pronounce it wrong!That seems like a small point, but it is exactly the elite arrogance that destoys objectivity at that network. It's the same attitude that draws these people to socialist schemes to improve the, in their view, ignorant of the world. Drives me nuts.
To: Mr. D
You should compare ABC news with Iraqi news(I seen on CSpan). SAME videos and the wording almost the same.
Even I was suprised.

l live in Canada and have a c-band satellite dish.l have to subscribe to a "grey" market, illegal in Canada to get Fox newsnetwork.lt's expensive but to me it's worth it.My dish broke Monday night and l have been waiting for the satellite man to repair it. l have had to watchCNN since the war started.l hate that satellite repairman almost as much as l hate CNN.By the way, he's the only repairman where l live.

THe news reader joyously announced the result of the cnn.com poll was that 60 percent of the respondents said that the media was conservative while only 30 percent said the media was liberalThat's sort of like surveying FR on how many freepers are conservative, then being suprised when the results show 95+ percent.
Also sounds like the cnn poll needed some serious freeping.

What drives me nuts is how CNN gives so much time to anti-war protestors. Every other story is about them. FOX almost NEVER has them on, and if they do, they are PROPERLY challenged on their beliefs.

Try some psyops on him: tell him you just baked some cookies and that they are there for him as soon as he gets your dish repaired. The longer he takes, the fewer cookies that will be left. LOL!

"I will NOT watch CNN, everMe either, but some people can't get Fox in their area. I toggled over to CNN coverage last night and their desert video was pretty bad compared to Fox. CNN does use alot of 3D graphics, but I prefer news, not "gamer graphics".
CNN anchors are the PITS--Aaron Brown and Judy Woodruff-the worst.

You people are full of Crap...
Paula Zahn was great until she went to CNN,
Geraldo was a Jerk but is "not that bad" now that he is on Fox,
And that shrieking yenta,,,
Oh I am gong to puke... You watch her right? The Eye job?
CNN is a comedy channel with the sound on. But their coverage (Anchors aside) is heads over Fox so far.

"CNN's field reporting is good, their anchors are pathetic."
True. True. True. What was really shocking was my ability to stomach Ted Koppel for more than a minute last night as he rode into Iraq with the 3rd Infantry division...
To: Mr. D
John King . . . everytime I think of him I have to take another nitroglycerin tablet. Some of the "liberally-loaded" questions he asks at Ari Fleischer's briefing piss me off so much I have to turn the TV off. He's the pompous little jackass who lectured Larry King to stay in his bailiwick and leave the "news" reporting to those better suited to handle it which . . . in his lofty opinion of himself . . . means himself.
The only one worse than him is the ABC prick . . . Terry Moran. The biased way they phrase their obnoxious questions should tell everyone who listens that they've got their own personal agendas to push and don't intend to simply report the news . . . they plan to BEND the news to fit their personal biases.
Pay attention next time during Ari's briefing . . . Moran and King usually sit next to Helen Thomas. Maybe that it explains it.
I'll make you a deal . . . I'll boycott CNN if you'll boycott ABC. LOL. As a fair and balanced FReeper however, in the spirit of full disclosure, I must admit I NEVER, EVER watch CNN anyway.

I'd think armed forces radio would air a network that supported them.
To: Mr. D
Yes, she is right, they are guarding the Republicans, and in the next election they will do as well as the Republican Guard, as they assume the French position.
To: Mr. D
You know, I thought that we hated Bill Clinton as much as it was humanly possible to hate a human being. But these Bush haters would sacrifice their own county, our troops and possibly our lives in their hatred. It's pathetic.

switch to Fox. It has been an absolute pleasure to watch war coverage this time that is not at least 50% anti-American (in the name of 'balance'). Plus they have great field correspondents with Marine and Army units on the move.
