But the Today Show was a no-show, then an MSNBC interview, Connected Coast to Coast and Hardball all cancelled.
All NBC--All General Electric.
Sounds like they got Karl's memo today to make the story die.

13. I would say it's more like Dick Cheney's memo |
|
I think we fail to remember who's running the machine behind the curtain.
Mainstream media wants us to believe its Karl Rove. Some of that is true. However I am beginning to wonder if its propaganda to distract us from those like PNAC's Cheney and Scooter Libby. We sure don't hear that much of them. Why not?

26. Either Way, The Press Fears the Regime Once Again |

It almost certainly has to do with Comey's departure and imminent replacement with Bush**loyalist McCaulum. Good-bye Plame investigation :cry:

14. Dallas' local NBC news had a report about her...showed the activists, too |
|
I was shocked...it was sandwiched between a "welcoming the troops home at DFW" report and a bit about how people in Ohio are questioning the Iraq war now that they have lost so many troops in a single week--they even showed/interviewed a WWII vet who not happy with chimp's war. Keep in mind this was all on a **Texas** media outlet--surprising since goodness knows the media down here will put any spin on any story to make it pro-chimp!
They had a technical difficulty when they first tried to show the Ohio story and I thought they would use that as an excuse not to show it--but they did when they fixed the problem.

15. CNN had a good interview |
|
with her this morning ~ it was fairly long also, several minutes, I think ~ she was wonderful. It was on about 8.15 AM. Tonight was mostly tributes to Peter Jennings which is understandable. Nothing on Robin Cook though ~ two good people died this weekend. It's always the good guys, or at least it seems that way.

To Whom It May Concern, I am troubled to why you would cancel the interview with Cindy Sheehan. Cindy is a bright articulate women who has suffered a great loss because of our lying administration. Our whole country is suffering because of these lies, and now you are making the suffering greater by refusing to report the truth. I have lost all patience with NBC at this point. If the majority of Americans knew what was actually going on in Iraq, things would be different than they are now. Our country would be on it's way to healing and moving on, instead we are suffering new wounds and more daily losses of our brothers and sisters. You have the power to make it stop, but you won't use it. Why? You have the power to expose these liars for what they are, and stop the suffering in this country but you don't seem to care. I guess GE profits are more important than American lives, huh? I'm blocking all of your channels on my cable box. All of them. My family will not support your game any longer. Americans are losing their lives, their fathers, their sisters, their brothers, and their mothers all due to a liar and his lies, and your just as responsible as Bush is, if not more so. You have the power to make it stop, but you think GE profits mean more than American lives. Shame on you. Shame on everyone of you. How do you sleep at night?
