MSM - CNN - My thoughts - Your thoughts
Edited on Tue Mar-01-05 01:53 PM by David Ippolito
Here's a short bit from my website this morning.

http://www.thatguitarman.com

Today, I turned on CNN at 9 am. I watched for 35 minutes.

Well, the Pope is speaking. The BTK killer is going to be arraigned. There were opening statements in the Michael Jackson trial. A little girl is missing in Florida. Millionaire Steve Fosset is flying around the world. The family of a judge in Chicago were murdered. And, there's a new book out about Eric Robert Rudolph, the abortion terrorist.

At 9:33, they ran the story about communication between Osama Bin Laden and Zarqawi. (They probably should have refreshed America's memory... Bin Laden is the one responsible for 9-11. Yeah, the guy George W. Bush was referring to when he said, "I don't know where he is, I ah, ah, I'll repeat what I said, I truly am not that concerned about him.")

CNN. 9:00 news... American Morning... in the time I watched, not one piece of information about the "War" in Iraq.

Not one.

So, here's a piece of news. (At least it was page one, above the fold in the New York Times today.)

A little more than 24 hours ago, at least 122 people were killed and more than 100 wounded Monday morning when a car bomb ripped through a crowd outside a medical center south of the Iraqi capital. 122 people!

And... as of this morning, 1,499 wonderful, young, good Americans have been killed there and are not coming home.

Now, let's make sure the FCC doesn't let Robin Williams make fun of cartoon characters at the Academy Awards.

That's something this rw machine is sooooo good at. It knows how easily distracted the American public has become. Unless there is a military draft and this war begins to affect more people directly... I'm afraid the American public will eat whatever they are being fed by the msm.

Sweep it. Move it. Distract.

I'm a New Yorker. I'm soooo offended that ANY information about Bin Laden is presented at 33 past the hour.
