[notadmblnd]

were duped. On CNN now.

[Darkhawk32]

1. huh? n/t

[notadmblnd]

2. sounds like these are the people from the original place they were camped.

they made it sound like it was the current people.

[Straight Shooter]

3. How the hell could they have been "duped"?

She's been there long enough, Camp Casey has been there long enough, that those people knew exactly what was going on.

Someone got to them, you know it, I know it.

edit: oh, I see your follow-up post now. CNN, a/k/a Contains No News, has done it again. x(

18. plus the cops and the health dept combed through everything including

the tents - it sounds like there's been a constant and thorough overview by 'the authorities' to me

[Jim Sagle]

4. Anyone who expects news on CNN IS duped.

[notadmblnd]

5. somebody has to keep an eye on these whores

it's a dirty job.. but some of us are compelled to do it.

[Cha]

11. I agree and I thank

you for..cause I ain't got the stomach for it no more.

[City Lights]

7. Good one, Jim Sagle!

I totally agree. :hi:

[Missy M]

6. Anderson Cooper has been duped into believing he is....

a real journalist.

[MADem]

8. It's all that cowering in the closet...messes up his head n/t

[Missy M]

10. Maybe CNN won't let him come out since they have gone...

over to the dark side. The fundies would be in a frenzy.

[mbee]

21. I saw the guy the other night for the first time and he was speaking

to another person on his program (a woman). They both seemed so unprofessional making fun of the people they were reporting on. What jerks! This sinks CNN lower in my opinion if that is possible.

[fishnfla]

9. Those IT wonders at CNN got a patch yet?

something we can put over coopers face?

[Walt Starr]

12. Did he actually report this shit?

I won't watch his dum ass any more.

[notadmblnd]

23. he did, see my second post.

nt

[leftchick]

13. haven't they already moved?

sheesh more cartoons from the cartton news network. :eyes:

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

14. Haven't Moved Yet

According to someone who was blogging from the Peace House this afternoon. They were still having meetings apparently. It's in another post in this section.

15. In Texas, A man is only as good as his word

I hope he remembers that..... If he promised them so much land usage, then keep his promise.

[Catrina]

16. I don't watch CNN anymore

but after reading about Anderson Cooper's Cindy coverage on DU the other day, (didn't see it, just read about it here where real news, not spin is available) I sent him an email.

Got back a standard 'we read everything, but can't reply because we have to take care of the show but your comments WILL be read etc. etc.. Last time I'll bother to write to people who are wilfully deaf and blind. No wonder TV news ratings are dropping by the day.

'The revolution will not be televised' ~ I used to wonder what that meant.

Just look at the Wednesday night vigils all over the country, or the worldwide anti-war demonstrations that brought out historic numbers, in the millions, with ZERO help from the media!!

We don't need them anymore ~ they are becoming more and more irrelevant each and every day.

[Horse with no Name]

20. I didn't even get an automated response.

:shrug:

[Gabi Hayes]

17. so....wtf happened? didn't anybody watch?

you'd be one of about, what, twenty nationwide

how do these people live with themselves?

[notadmblnd]

22. I did watch it and determined that

it was the peoples' (Harrison, I think their name is) property where Camp Casey was set up originally. But Cooper in his teaser certainly made it sound like it was the people who recently offered Cindy use of their land.

[Horse with no Name]

19. My biggest fear when this land was promised was

that it would get them out of the ditch, they would ramrod the legislation through making it illegal for them to protest along that road and then the person that promised the land would evict them and they would have nowhere to go.
I didn't want to show my pessimism, but am wondering if that was the plan.
I wonder if they kept SOME sort of presence in the bar ditches even after they went to the land if that would keep them grandfathered in.
I don't think they could evict them out of the ditch, I just think the next group would not be allowed to protest there.
Just an observation.
I'm sure that Fred has been threatened. If he hasn't been threatened, then he has been paid well not to let them on the land, if that is the case.:shrug:

24. Wonder if he and Jeff Gannon are buds?

They seem to have some things in common...
