1. Propaganda
There just trying to portray Democrats as weak and unpatriotic like they always do.

8. THE CORPORATE MEDIA IS WORKING WITH ROVE TO DIVIDE THE DEMOCRATS.
The left just has to accept this as a fact and stop letting them jerk the chains.

11. Their relentless chorus of "Don't bash Bush" on all channels is awful
Could you imagine the same thing happening for the RNC con? Every single talking head saying Kerry shouldn't be bashed, and the RNC deciding to go along with it?

Its almost surreal.

14. Just talkin' out their asses
I oughtta sue 'em. I have the patent on that :)

But the days leading up the convention don't carry much news.... all the reporters are gathered in one place, but nothing's happening, so they make up shit like this.

15. Did anyone else see that they edited speeches?
They thought the Democrats were being too hateful, so they had to rewrite some. I don't see why they should hold back against these facists.

17. I missed something, what do you mean? Holding back?
I haven't changed my channel from C-span since last night...TV has been on all night even while I slept.

Is something going on in media land? I am loathe to go look.

Welcome to DU all newcomers!! :hi:

18. Both Hilliary and the Kerry campaign debunked that earlier
Speeches were edited for time not content.

20. 4 more years of Bush/Cheney would lead to an America we wouldnt recognize

Sounds pretty blunt to me.

21. Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.
They don't have to mention *HIS name a hundred times for people to know who they're talking about.
