The Networks can go fuck themselves |
|
I'm so PISSED OFF at the networks for shutting out Obama, Ron Reagan, that kid for Kerry founder (Ilana Wexler), and now, Teresa. They can go fuck themselves.
Illinois DU'ers: did they show Obama's convention speech on local networks?

1. But they need to show their reality shows |
|
Just another example of the decline of civic spirit in this country.

5. Yep, every last bit is on CSPAN. |

I'm loving it. Even the little kid chorus.

7. Why didn't the big 3 show a prime-time speaker? |
|
I know it was only 1 lousy hour, but why did they cancel?

CNN is showing Chris Heinz, PBS is showing Chris Heinz, but FOX has Brit Hume talking, saying "...not an African American in the traditional sense of the word..."
Bullshit. Let him speak.

14. What the hell is that supposed to mean? |
|
Brit shows his underlying racism by that comment.
Blacks aren't usually so eloquent, they should be out playing basketball...Yeah, Brit Hume knows his stereotypes.

My mistake. Though he was talking about Obama at first.
Either way, Brit Hume is a big flaming pile of dog @$%#$^

Every day I grow more and more convinced that the real revolution we need in this country is against the media. There is no greater force for ignorance, hatred, and mind-numbing stupidity than the networks and cable news outlets.

Emails aren't doing it. Tomorrow I call CNN and tell them they have lost another viewer.
