Anybody see that crap that Wolf Blitzer just allowed to happen? |
|
Wolf is the pits. During a discussion being led by a Congressman from GA with his constiuents concerning a construction of a road that was threatening the livelihood and housing of those involved, Wolf allowed a RW-GOP disrupter call in and change the topic to discussing healthcare reform...which the Congressman was not dealing with at all. Wolf allowed the disruptor to go on and on until the Congressman called him on his ploy. These RWingnuts have no shame and the MSM is evil in carnate. I am going to type an e-mail to CNN and hope it can get to Blitzer so I can call him on his bullshit!! Join in if you want to. Somebody please post Blitzer direct e-mail if you have it. Thanks!

You do know that was a joke done by Al Franken at a WH Correspondents Dinner back in the early Clinton years? Wolf laughed along with the joke, which means it isn't seen by him as an insult, and Franken didn't mean it as one anyway.
Source: Senator Franken himself, in his book "Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot".

2. Unable to watch CNN at work, so I'm glad you called it |
|
Blitzer should retire and let someone else work The Situation Room for a while.

4. Shameful, but typical of CNN |
|
You got a witness here. I tuned in a little late so I wasn't sure what was going on as the caption read, "Congressman screams at constituent." I had no idea that the congressman was on to talk about a topic other than health care reform, given most of what I watch was about health care reform. I found it funny how the "doctor" on the phone kept insisting that the debate not become a political issue. Yeah, right.
It also seemed like an unusually long segment. And you're correct, Leslie is the pits. Always has been.

8. CNN has been desperate for ratings for some time... |
|
It is no surprise that Wolf would do this....I am sure they even had a hand in selecting the "appropriate" call for that momeent too.

9. CNN has become completely unwatchable |
|
The were unwatchable before. Now they are completely unwatchable. They are on a race to the bottom with Faux and it sounds like they have almost caught up. I'm not sure why they let Glenn Beck go. He seems to have fit in well.
