1. Probably another hit piece.
They're ramping up the amount of mud they are putting in the catapult lately.

7. That was a total smear piece
They called it "in-depth" it was what 1 minute 30 seconds long. CBC's The National does 25-30 minute features.

6. How many times can they say LIBERAL in a 6 minute sound bite?
Was it 4 or was it 5?

Lovely to see Ann Coulter's horrible face in there. She's so pathetic.

8. that was like the first Larry warming up for dove season.
Nora O'Donnell accusing her of being pro-Palestinian and saying that people will be watching her "every move."

Well no shit sherlock, she's genuine and speaks from the heart. They'd better. But how much of it will be reported. None of the major media outlets reported the "we don't care rally." They only reported the stuff about Larry #2 when he was charged.

At least they mentioned the desecration of the crosses though.

Sheesh, as we've known for years, the media truly sucks.

9. This is exactly why Conservatives were so happy with Brian Williams...
taing over for Tom Brokaw. I forget who it was, but someone gave him their stamp of approval. Think it was Frank Luntz or someone like that. Not sure.

I heard the word liberal repeated over and over in the segment.

10. Lou Dobbs did a much fairer job.
The segment before Cindy's on NBC was a PR piece for Bush. I was discussed by it. I keep waiting for the our side's segment. It never came.

11. If the right-wing media's goal is to close the minds of us lefties
to their incessant, insane propaganda, they sure scored with me. My TV is off and stays off. I never watch. I listen to Air American Radio and watch films I choose from Netflix. My mind is not annoyed by anything right-wing anymore. The right-wing media can't be trusted. They just lie, lie, lie. Why should I dirty my beautiful mind with the likes of Ann Coulter.

Do as I do. Turn off the TV. Make your life safer, healthier and happier.
