Screw Woodwards book CNN thinks tracking lions more newsworthy

Unbelievable. Today's news should all be about this book. Of course the media are culprits in the invasion of Iraq so why would they want to cover this story.

CNN is acting like the story doesn't exist.

Imus is madder than hell....ranting.......but not a peep out of CNN.

Can't bring myself to watch FAUX! Anybody have a stronger stomach than me?

2. Other networks seem to be taking it seriuosly ...

I just finished my workout at the gym at 7am and the CBS morning news show's opening blurb was on the book and it's implications.

There's some hope.

3. CNN had the Woodward book

on about 25 minutes ago. I'm sure they will go to it again. Nothing wrong with trying to protect Mountain Lions. Wait unti this evening, the crap will hit the fan then. I think it's possible that America (dems and repubs) might actually be a tad shocked.

5. Give it a couple of days. It drives me crazy when you see something

that looks big and it takes the media days and days to discover it.

6. Give them feedback

http://www.cnn.com/feedback/

Last night, they had a headline about the Woodward book: Woodward: Tenet said WMD case a 'slam dunk.' Yeah, that's right. Un-freakin-believeable.

Sound off. This is why they are tainted with right-wing bias now: liberals don't complain enough.

7. I heard nothing about the book on CNN.

The only mention in my daily paper was that condi rice disputed claims that powell was out of the loop. The BIG MEDIA will try to bury this story. Keep it alive!!!

8. What the Hell was that about?

They tease us at the top of the hour about Bush diverting (stealing) cash to start his dirty little war, then Nothing about it.

I love animals and hope for the best for mountain lions, but let's hear about the impeachable offense.....not that this Congress will do that.

I blame Bill Hemmer. A lot of people give Cafferty sh*t about being right-wing, but he, imo, is tons more fair and balanced than any Faux personality. Jack is just kind of an ass.

Bill Hemmer is a major Bush apologist. He always reacts to bad news for Bush with a great deal of skepticism.
