6. Not if they want to keep their license and not be visiously attacked
I was pleased with a this piece - it was on a widely watched network to boot - not something to complain about for sure.

In my defense and other insane DUers... I hope you are right and I'm wrong.

13. I was at work (a gym) and FAUX was on 4 of the 10 TVs we have there...
Shucks, too bad I remembered to bring my mp3 player and earbuds. I missed every bit of the fast-paced coverage. :shrug:

10. no, it's the carrot and the stick
The carrot is I watch it and approve of it airing

The stick is I bash them for not going far enough.

Simple. Effective. Consistent.

12. If you could turn television shows into human beings...
Dead Wrong would be Joseph Biden.

Don't get me wrong- I thought the piece was well done and surprisingly critical for US cable news. Still, they focussed intently on Tenet, and only offered occasional, anxious glances at the Bush Administration.

14. I think we expect a little too much here at DU
This is mainstream media after all. Nothing on that show was news to me. But to a lot of people that was scathing. It's just a matter of perspective. I love the timing of the show. Larry Johnson said he had done his interviews last fall. You think CNN had this in the can and was sitting on it till the right moment came along?
