Wolf, Judy, CNN Sharpton reaction RACISM, pure and simple --
!I'm disgusted by their horrified reaction -- Sharpton spoke longer than his scheduled time! He went off message! He had strong words for that saint-who-walks-the-earth, GEORGE W BUSH! What a bunch of girlie men!!!

1. If speakers stay on script and schedule...
then they're 'dull'. If they don't, they're 'disrespectful'. Nobody can win with these media WHORES. Fuck 'em.

5. Chris Matthews was having an
aneurysm. I have to say that the first thought I had at the way he and Fineman were reacting was this: HOW WHITE OF YOU.

7. CNN has highest ratings for convention coverage --
My husband watches PBS coverage, and has lower blood pressure; I have to see my partys convention as America is seeing it. I have called CNN many times about their coverage. I want the corporate media to know that some of us are onto them.

3. I'm logged on to C-SPAN.org.
They just turn on the cameras and microphones, and get the hell out of the way. Thank you, C-SPAN! :yourock:

8. I agree
I decided not to be outraged at the horrible coverage, and gave my heart to C-Span. Gotta love em. Thank you from me, too, C-Span.

17. We need to write scathing reviews of each of the most offensive pundits
and send copies to their bosses, the FCC, and anyone else we can think of.

If you witnessed a particular eggregious example, post it.

Wolf and Judy sound as if they need to get letters of reprimand from viewers.
