CNN: Post Dem debate Larry King will be covering.....Kobe Bryant
and his day in court.

I cannot keep my head from shaking back side to side in utter disbelief that the whore media cannot even bother to cover the debate on their OWN network, even.

The way they announced it is as if people should tune in at 9:30 for the REAL big story. Fockers!

2. Kobe, Schmobe!!
Not to mention the fact that the debate will air opposite new episodes of "Friends" and "Survivor," as well as Game 2 of the American League Championship Series, which just so happens to involve teams from two of the largest markets in the US.

Will anyone be watching? Good thing CNN plans to re-air the debate at 11:30 ET tonight.

Thanks for your timely scheduling of the debate, programming wizards!!! Arrrggggh!

3. The media never covers serious news

If they did, we would have known about the rise of Al Qaida, and Bush*'s inability to stop 9/11.

4. While watching Crossfire they cut in to listen to Ahhnold
talk about the transission. Will the rest of us have to put up with this sh*t everytime he opens his mouth!

I am sick to death of Kobe and the Gropinator.

5. Kobe Bryant - - - - boring.........
Sports figures get too much airtime already. I think our journalists are way too lazy and go for the easy, exciting stories because no one questions them when they are all reporting the same story.

6. I've noticed this pattern with Larry
Just last week when we had 3 big stories breaking, including the Wilson affair, Larry had a psychic on. Other times I've tuned in only to find Marie Osmond, Pat Boone, Tammy Faye Baker, or Suzanne Sommers. Larry is over the hill. I have to hope CNN is waiting for Larry's contract to expire.

7. It's more than that. This is DELIBERATE on CNN and LK's part.
They are so in the tank for the BFEE.

11. I dunno about that
Ever since CNN sacked the horrendous Ms. Chung, Larry King's been doing more and more of the idiotic, lowest-common-denominator scandal crap.

Maybe CNN will figure out that no one is interested in Kobe, just like no one cared a hoot about that Robert or Richard what's-his-name who was accused of killing his wife--the one they tried to turn into a latter-day OJ, complete with car chase episode.

I'm fed up to the gills with all of them.

9. Look on the Bright Side
anyone who watches the debate then sticks around on CNN won't have a talking head saying candidate A was "masterful" when candidate A was in fact, incoherant.

10. Actually, I like this
I prefer it to Fox or MSNBC (TWEETY), where they immediately cut to bashing the Dem candidates.
