I don't know what got into some MSNBC people but |
|
just today Contessa, David Schuster and Tweety have
chewed up McCain idiots and spit them out. I think they
are over farm animals and misleading sex ed ads.:applause:

1. The McCain campaign broke their contract with the media. |

I just thought GE would still sit on them.
You don't piss off the media. You don't have to be their BFF,
but you don't do what McNuts and co did.

4. Exactly what I've been saying! |
|
The snub on Larry King and the self imposed media black out (you don't get to ask her questions!) on Palin REALLY bruised the media's collect GIANT ego, and they are biting the Rethugs back BIG time!

3. What got into them was MSNBC's decision to pull Keith and Tweety |
|
from any further presidential coverage anchoring on the grounds that the Rethugs think they're too biased.

The double standards are mindblowing. Who knows? Maybe Tweety is finally having his "Come to Jesus" moment and is being proactive in doing the right thing long before he dies. It turned out to be too late for some media/gov't officials (that will go unmentioned) to turn it around before they kicked the bucket.
Since being taken off the coverage, I've noticed Keith has kicked it up a notch too. Can't wait for his special comment tonite. By removing him and Tweety from election night coverage, they'v oficially killed their ratings for that night.
Also, Andrea Mitchell seems a bit less conservative leaning herself these days.

15. What??? You mean, everyone else at MSNBC/NBC doesn't hate and resent Keith |
|
and worry that he is tarnishing their sterling reputation for fair and impartial journalism, the way we have been told they do???? :rofl:

7. It was a great day to be home...they injected some sanity in |
|
the conversation. I think Tweety,for all his faults, respects the process and gets really upset with this type of dribble. JMHO

14. But they've already created a Frankenstein |
|
The American public are already trained like Pavlov's dogs and now there's no turning them back. The media can't put the genie back in the bottle. We're DOOMED!

19. I think it was the outright attack by McCain's campaign |
|
against the Media...claiming sexism because the press had the nerve to want questions answered. The Faux outrage has finally backfired on the McCain campaign.
