Hillary on LARRY KING LIVE for full hour on eve of make or break Pennsylvania primary |
|
Edited on Sun Apr-20-08 07:14 PM by flpoljunkie
I now understand why some call CNN the "Clinton News Network." A full hour of prime time on the eve of the Pennsylvania primary--worth tens of millions of dollars in free advertising--cause we all know how tough an interviewer Larry King is. This is really quite extraordinary. And, don't bring up Obama being on The Daily Show on Monday night. I think Stewart got a lot of flack when he had Hillary on the night before the crucial March 4 primaries, and this is apparently an effort to achieve some balance.

She will probably also use her 'soft bedtime story' voice.

Or Lohan will forget to wear her panties again. That will cut the interview down to 8 minutes

Anyone's "going missing" is sad and not a subject for any kind of humor. I have a relative with bipolar disorder and this relative has been missing several times during manic episodes. It is hell on earth for those who love the missing person, black, white, male, or female. I hope you never have this experience. Someone's forgetting to wear panties, now that is funny (or pitiful, depending on how you look at it!).

15. Well, you know king will ask touch questions, NOT |
|
Frankly I doubt the common folk in Pennsylvania aren't going to be watching Larry King
They are concerned why there is no steel industry in their state, why their jobs have been off-shored, why their homes are being forclosed, why they are paying almost 4 bucks a gallon for gas, and food is at record highs
There was a bankrupcy bill that was passed a few years ago, many of those people are hurting because of that
I think in the last several weeks people realize who helped push NAFTA and trade agreements at the expense of our citizens. Who pushed bills that give corporations tax breaks to off-shore jobs
Clinton may win the Pensylvania primary, but it will be by single digits, and that is nothing for the Clinton camp to brag about

just like the rest of the main stream media did at the time. Here's the whole "emotional" episode if, by chance, you have not seen it. It is quite extraordinary. Shame on the media for covering for Hillary! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIG1mJAdMv8

"Some of us know what we'll do on day one and some of us really haven't thought that through enough"
I had forgotten she used that line as a follow up to the tears.

Maybe she will get part of the hour but Larry King is on the trail of the Texas story. If there is any news from there, it will cut into HRC's time.

20. Thanks for letting me know.......to make sure I don't watch it. |

CNN is oftentime used, in particular Larry King, to attempt to change the strajectory of elections. It was used in 2004 on Wes Clark, when Dole appeared on the program with him and disparaged his rank as an officer. Wes Clark's response was the only thing that was aired, and it made him appeared to sound pompous and fluxomed.
Wonder what Hillary will accuse Obama of on air. Guess she'll reaffirm her great respect for McCain and then go on and disparage Sen. Obama with unthruths and exaggerations once again.
Guess when one has no money, free info commercial an hour long serves a purpose. Sigh....

24. Good job booking that hour of free time, good for PA and the upcoming states! |
|
try not to be bitter about it, Obama has spent $10 million in tv and radio ads.
and don't forget the news coverage, his 'message' is out there, to all those bible thumping gun toting bigots, loud and clear!
It will still be within 10 points.

33. Larry King's audience is over 60 years old. It won't sway any new voters. |
|
Larry has one of the oldest audiences on cable teevee. People that would vote for Obama wouldn't watch him anyway.

|
This is a once in a lifetime chance for Larry to make his 80+ years in broadcasting worth a damn. Larry should surprise the shit out of the entire public and throw some seriously tough questions Hillary's way.
I'm talking 1970's 60 Minutes questions. Questions that make her sweat her ass off on camera.

Not one of the networks are being unbiased this election cycle. Because a candidate does a interview favorable to them this means what? Just more bitching, whining, and moaning from the victim<s> candidate.

She's trying to motivate her voters, the over 70 crowd.
Honestly, who knew Larry King was still alive?
Only on the Clinton News Network.
