LOL...
FOX deserves this PR catastrophe, for hiring the likes of the ENQUIRER CLASS of employees such as the slime geraldo, and attention glutton Rita Cosby..I have been appalled at this choice of "professional" journalists just proves how desperate fox is for ratings..soap opera caliber sensationalistic presentations!
Not to discount the fine jobs being done by most of the embeddeds..
Much of the high ratings are based on the choice of the MASSES, the kind who love to watch the likes of the Simpsons!!!

My point is that so far, only CNN is reporting this. All the other "sources" merely repeat what they're saying.
As far as "making you happy," that doesn't even make it to my radar screen. Make yourself happy and go to the proctologist to have your head removed.

Newsmax is just repeating the CNN story.
I wondered last night who he had smooth the sand for him and why his handler didn't pull his mike. Aren't the reporters supposed to clear everything with someone first? Yes, everyone knows Geraldo can't keep a secret if his or anyone else's life depended on him so my question is where the heck was his handler.

I heard Fox stating that they were booted from Iraq too.

That so-called "Peace Sign" is his normal sign-off to his kids that he has been doing for years and years...
=================================
Geraldo isn't quite as old as I am, but I still think of that "V" as standing for VICTORY!

my question is where the heck was his handler.i kinda don't think that tackling geraldo during a live shot would produce the effect the military is hoping to achieve by having embedded reporters. otoh, an off-camera rifle shot could be chalked up to a sniper or something.

Did you see the cutesy schmaltz going on between Rita "I am so important" Crosby and Geraldo last night!
It was sickening to see these two preening egos sucking up to each other, sending each other "love" over the airwaves, and making eyes at each other, while our guys are in harm's way.
The families of those serving must have been disgusted by this

I was starting to change my tune abou Geraldo a little and now he goes and pulls this. We already know there is no connection between his brain and a certain male anatomy part but is there no connection between his brain and mouth too!?!?

New work for Geraldo and Arnett
To: jacquej
NO, I didn't see that..I have gone from a 100(99.9%) FOX viewer to only watching at certain times, I no longer have the stomach to watch Cosby/Rivera...to say nothing of the nerve racking hysterical FOX NEWS ALERTS q 5 minutes!!!
To: Gritty
Now FOX needs to get rid of their other star Liberal, Greta von MushMouth. They need to hire somebody who can talk straight, ask coherent questions (not lawyer questions) and not irrelevantly butt in all over her guests
I agree, her ratings are not bad, because anything on FoxNews will do better than the rest of the pack, but imagine the ratings if Newt or someone else sharp and not a closet liberal was the host. I'll take 5 minutes of Ollie North's quality reports over an hour of Geraldo's patronizing the troops show any day.
To: StarFan; Howlin
Howlin, nutmeg - Either I'm dreaming or we're being blessed this morning with Arnett/Whorealdo news. Yes, a blessing alright! Now we gotta work on ousting Aaron Brown, Judy Woodruff, Christiane Amanpour, Petah Jennings, Dan Blather, Perky Katie...
Well.. I can dream, can't I? :-D

Why is everyone ragging on Geraldo. I think he's done a great job. So what if he's full of bravado, he stands out from the rest on the pack and the troops seem to like him. If he really did what they say he did, and it seems very weird to me that he did...after all, he's been doing this for a long time, then he's getting the punishment. But I still don't know what everyone hates him for this war coverage.
