Media apologists on Hardball.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

Amy Goodman is the only person on the panel with the guts to say the media dropped the ball.

Added: The worst of them is Bob Zelnick, a self-described conservative and Bush supporter. Some real objectivity there...

1. What a SHOCK! A biased media panel on Tweetie talking about media

bias. I simply can't believe it. Tweetie pulled it off without the least sign of irony. A real pro!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. My thoughts exactly.

I'm not sure why I even bothered to watch, and I'm really surprised he got an actual liberal, Amy Goodman, and even let her talk without interrupting very much. Zelnick is a disgusting toady. :puke:

[autorank]

7. Zelnick, oh so right!

I was looking for C-SPAN and dropped in on Tweetie. When I saw Goodman, I though, geez, the show may rock. Then Zelnick...that guy is a professional liar. Uriah Heep of journalism. If he's training them, it's little wonder 90% of them suck.

3. I really admire Amy Goodman,

and others like her that go onto shows like Tweety's, to face up to those right-wing shits and do it so eloquently.

If put in that situation, I'd just get physically ill...


*Edited for horrible grammar.

4. so have conservatives finally dropped the 'liberal media' meme?

now that the king was reselected?

5. Amy Goodman was on? She ROCKS!

She hosts Democracy Now on Free Speech TV and LINK TV on Dish. You want to hear a daily update on election fraud? Amy has it! You want to see the protestors marching? Amy's got 'em. You want to see the REAL images of war in Iraq? Amy will hook you up.

Amy's show is totally independent and she is never afraid to show anything controversial. She was the first person to have Bev from BBV on. Had Jesse Jackson on, too.

6. Amy Goodman..

..is consistantly a great panelist. I am glad to see Matthews invites her on, but it would be nice if he put together segments where she could actually make more than a passing comment or two.

She was the only one tonight who contributed anything of value to the public discourse on any political program I saw.

Goodman is awsome and I hope to see more of her.

8. i always think of...oh what is the name of that jerk on hardball

as donald duck...quack quack...quack...blah blah blah...propoganda...propoganda...propoganda...gee isn't bush the greatest...blah blah blah... and an absolute and utter fool

[Bozita]

9. Zelnick spouted every Repug talking point on the war

Three neocon apologists vs one progressive.

A real balanced group.

10. Dropped tha ball on what? NT

11. Matthews at least brings up the subject of RW media bias

I don't see it being discussed anywhere else on the corporate media. I thought the guy from TV guide had some good things to say too.

[billie_]

12. I will watch the rebroadcast, ONLY because of Amy Goodman! n/t

[realisticphish]

13. Amy Goodman

god, i love her...i listen to Democracy Now! all the time, and if you havent read "Exception to the Rulers," then for christ's sake go camp out in front of your local bookstore to buy it as soon as the store opens
