MSRNC is whoring bigtime.
Edited on Mon Jul-26-04 08:58 PM by Bleachers7
Mathews, Fineman, Mitchell, Scarborough, are all piling on to Kerry. I heard aloof, personality problem, unlikeable and all kinds of other horseshit. MSNBC has 3 pukes on it. Mathews voted for Bush. Scarborough was a puke congressman. Mitchell is a right wing whore. Fineman doesn't do the dems any favors. Then there is CNN with Dole and brainless Larry King. What a fucking nightmare.

2. CNN has the better coverage and NO, Dole is being decent.
Watch Jim Leher or CSPAN if you want BBC Style coverage.

3. We are getting Gored big time tonight...
we can all sulk away and watch C-SPAN but just don't be surprised when the public thinks Kerry claimed that he invented the Internet 3 days before the election. I can't believe the DNC. What the fuck. Don't they see what is going on? The feckless SOB sapsuckers.

10. Of Course the DNC Can See What is Going On, But What Can They Do About It?
Absolutely nothing. All of the networks have shifted into high gear
to get the pResident re-selected. Rove faxes them all the Republican
talking points every day, and the talking heads all faithfully
regurgitate them on command.

What part of "The Republicans Own the News" don't you understand?

The media is barely even covering our convention, which should be our
best shot at reaching the people. One network isn't covering the
actual convention at all. This will prevent us from getting any
"bounce" from the convention at all, in fact many of are resigned to
a "negative bounce" due to all the heavy shilling for Bush* on TV
since the convention started.

It does not matter how much money we raise for Kerry to run ads,
because the networks are giving Bush* unlimited free advertising and
will be doing so from now until the election. Since they call it
"news" it's all legal. Think of it as the Bush campaign having a
war chest of $300 BILLION instead of the mere $300 million or so they
have, since that is closer to the market value of the free advertising
that the networks are giving to Bush*.

Our only hope is that the networks are being so blatant about it that
perhaps enough of the people will either see through it (unlikely) or
simply be sick of seeing Bush*'s ugly face by November.

Can you get C-Span? None of that garbage there.

6. Chris Matthews
Is Matthews going to bash Kerry & the Dems thru the entire convention? Why doesn't he just move over to Fox & he can do it full time.

He has spent 1/2 an hour talking about the "Shove It issue" if you can call it an issue. Don't remember him ever talking about Cheney.

Now he is criticizing Kerry cause he doesn't have a warm personality.

I know this if I was in a bar having a drink, I would rather be sitting next to Kerry than a loudmouth.

8. Earllier they wouldn't let Andrea Mitchell
get in a word edgewise. It was infuriating to me. Someone needs to put a sock in both Scarborough and Matthews.
