Andrea Mitchell is scared as shit |
|
Edited on Mon Jul-21-08 04:35 PM by TheDonkey
Anyone hear her whining on Hardball right now. It is unreal.
Matthews is showing Obama/Iraq footage and of course it is all very positive for our guy. Andrea is nervous.
First she starts foaming at the mouth and complaining about how the DOD is not qualified to videotape Obama because they are not as knowledgeable as her and are not "REAL" journalists. She pretty much tried to say they were incompetent and cannot be trusted. That somehow the DOD is now an arm of the Obama campaign and no images or interviews from this trip can be legitimate because she and her MSM journalist cronies are not invited to the party.
Then after Matthews and the other guest ignored her ranting she goes on to talk about how successful the surge is.
Poor Andrea, but the more nervous she gets the better shape Obama must be in!

6. Andrea like most rethugs in the MSM do not understand that bias free newsreporting |
|
does not mean talking trash about one side in order to appear in the "middle" it means just SHOWING or REPORTING what is actually happening. Unfortunately in the age of reporters creating the news this is lost on them.

38. And she did marry into it, too. Mrs. Alan Greenspan. |
|
It's proximity and access. Why would she not be sympathetic to the bad guys? That's who she hangs with socially. That's the crowd she runs with through the black-tie dinners and receptions and cocktail parties and embassy bashes. The money'd elite. His friends are her friends, and his friends are all Wall Streeters and high rollers and bankers and hedge funders and the like. And they tend to be predominantly republi-CON as opposed to Dems.

11. How Dare the DOD show footage, |

and the media whores be locked out. Although, last I checked, The CBS interview from Sunday was done by a "real" journalist. In fact, That "Journalist" is a better journalist than Andrea could ever dream of ever being.

13. Mrs. Greenslag makes me sick ... treating HER as a "real journalist" is what's WRONG |
|
When you KNOW full well which side she's on. For her to imply ANYTHING about "media bias" or the coverage not being "fair" is just ridiculous. If she wants the coverage to be "fair," she ought to get off the air.

I think next January will a good time for the MSM to purge their Bushbots, Bushills, and other Busholingists. There won't be any need to keep them around anymore, as access to Hubert Wanker and his dimbulb son will not count for anything. Even if they decide to dedicate a pop-up library to the Illiterate One, some local camera crew can go out and cover it and upload it (as if anyone would want such footage).
That includes warmongers Judith Miller and the gum-flappers of the RW radio noise machine, who will see their ratings fall until they are left with their hard-core following of people who don't take their anti-psychotic medications.
(why isn't there a smilie of the trash being dumped out?)

Millions of foreclosures, directly traceable to Greenspan capitulating to the Bush administration in 2003 and 2004.

26. I remember very clearly Greenspan touting ARMs as the greatest thing since sliced bread. |
|
Emphatically exhorting people to go out and get on board with adjustable rate mortgages. Just for that alone he should be vilified forever.
It wasn't bad enough that he changed his tune on the Bush tax cuts -- he kinda sorta made a few weak demurrals when the idea was first proposed, but got in line right quick and proclaimed that the tax cuts made sound economic sense.
May history blacken his name for all time.
What really pisses me off is that the Corpo-Media NEVER mentions the fact that Andrea Mitchell is Mrs. Alan Greenspan -- NEVER. Only hardcore political junkies are aware of this fact.
But that's our Corpo-Media -- serving up a steady diet of bullshit and telling us it's filet mignon.

27. I didn't see Hardball tonight |
|
but it very clear to me by the way she is responding to the question, that Obama IS being very well received by the troops. I read on the first read msnbc website (by a poster commenting of course) that on Morning Joe, she was refusing to comment on the troop's response to Obama there as well, because the footage was "shot by the military and not a journalist!" And then she segways into her SURGE! propaganda to try and change the subject. She did the same thing on Hardball last Friday. Pooorrrr Andrea.

33. It is almost comic. I wouldn't trust Andrea to report on a little league game |
|
not to mention a presidential campaign. For her to feel like SHE and her sheep-like colleagues of the MSM are some how competent is comic.

29. I have to think that Lara Logan of CBS getting the first exclusive |
|
with Obama not only pissed her off but caused her bosses to wonder if she is slipping. I do hope that a key element of President Obama's news strategy will be to punish those sources who have tilted unfairly to McCain by providing only "B" Team gets.

reputations are going to be made with the few interviews Obama gives out.

in November, she and so many other puppet propaganda parrots like her will be retired for fresh new and hopefully more effective blood by their corporate media masters.
You're only as good as your last brain washing success in the corporate media biz.
