Is this e-mail to CNN too tough?

[My Pet Goat]

I am really happy with your coverage today. Evidently, Kerry looks like a condom per Hemmer. Thanks for contributing to the American dialog.

By the way, I noticed Hemmer was talking up death threats against Moore. I'm sure a lot of people in the news get threats LEFT and RIGHT but I've never heard this issue talked up by a CNN anchor until today. Is it because of Moore's left wing political views? Does CNN promote talk of death threats against left wing commentators?

1. fuck cnn and hemmer and the e-mail is perfect.

[annxburns]

2. Nope, send it ...

... they deserve what they get. I talked to someone at CNN today - told her I am going to have the channel blocked.

[Aftershock]

3. It's not tough enough.

But it'll do.

Suck my Goat Dick, and it'll be perfect.

I wrote to the FCC because a radio slime said he wanted to drag MM from the back of an F-250.

Stupid me, I forgot who owns the FCC, Colin's baby boy.

Re: Repellent behavior of CNN

I am disgusted with your coverage of the Democratic National Convention. Instead of providing news you have provided right wing "analysis" and removed the Democrats voice with this "analysis" You are also wasting valuable air time with ridiculous pictures of John Kerry that are clearly designed to undermine his Presidential bid.

A news organization should report the news and report what people have said on the topics of the day. Do you honestly believe that a man in a NASA clean suit is news worthy? Apparently so, your "news" is little more than tabloid television, you provide your viewers with 90% opinion and 10% fact.

I will no longer be viewing CNN its affiliates or its domains -- You are NOT the "most trusted name in news" in my household any more.

7. IMPORTANT QUESTION

Can you get transcripts of CNN's news and/or interviews?

I am most anxious to know this.

16. Do we still remember when the CNN chairman grovelled before the GOP?

August 15, 2001

Early this month, new CNN chairman Walter Isaacson met with top Republican lawmakers in Washington, D.C. to discuss how to improve relations between the cable news network and conservative Republicans.

According to a report in Roll Call magazine (8/6/01), Isaacson met with Senate Minority Leader Trent Lott (R-Miss.), House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.), Rep. J.C. Watts (R- Okla.), Rep. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) and Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.). Isaacson also intends to meet with House Whip Tom DeLay (R.-Texas), who has ridiculed CNN as the "Clinton News Network" and the "Communist News Network," and has suggested a conservative boycott of the channel. Isaacson also sought meetings with White House officials.

While Isaacson claims he "definitely did not say, 'How do we attract the conservative viewer?,'" his account suggests that concerns about CNN's alleged bias against conservatives were preeminent: "I was trying to reach out to a lot of Republicans who feel that CNN has not been as open to covering Republicans, and I wanted to hear their concerns" (Roll Call, 8/6/01). One GOP aide told Roll Call that Isaacson "said, 'Give us some guidance on how to attract conservatives.' He said he 'wanted to change the culture' at CNN" (Roll Call, 8/6/01).

CNN's outreach effort is likely due to the ratings success of Fox News Channel. While still in fewer homes than CNN, Fox draws nearly the same number of viewers on average, and Fox shows like The O'Reilly Factor regularly beat their CNN competition in the ratings. It should be remembered, however, that CNN and Fox combined reach a tiny percentage of U.S. TV viewers.

But Fox News Channel's clear appeal to a conservative audience has apparently convinced some at CNN-- including the new chief-- that CNN must not be accommodating enough to conservatives. In fact, CNN may even be thinking about producing a Rush Limbaugh television program (USA Today, 8/13/01), another sign that the network's plan seems to involve amplifying conservative voices on the channel.

CNN is totally discredited. From Issacson's embarrassing incident of bowing and scraping to the GOP to the Yawning Boy lies, CNN has been on a constant downslide into the darkside of media whoredom.

10. I'd like to ask Hemmer what it's like to work for a dead and

irrelevant cable news network.

[Reciprocity]

11. Here's mine...

I have been with CNN since day one. I am now changing my channel to MSNBC. The last two days of your coverage of the Democratic Convention has been a endless stream of Kerry bashing. I am sure you are looking forward to the Republican Convention . Where you can continue your love-fest of all things Bush.
Your ex-loyal viewer .

12. I compared them to FOX!

I hope that hits them hard.

[tom_paine]

14. Please...they will be THRILLED you said that!

[Hutzpa]

13. Absolutely perfect........you need it to hit their conscience n/t

:think: :think:

[tom_paine]

15. These disconnected Vile Aristoicrats need to HAVE a conscience first

Which they do NOT! ANYONE who would help drive this Imperial Pravda Machine by definition MUST have the same conscience as those who ran the Soviet Pravda Machine.

CNN has demonstrated MANY times this is the ABSOLUTE TRUTH.

[Nay]

17. Send it. The one I sent was much meaner.
