Has The Media Turned Against Bush?

Personally, I block out all of the right wing news media, so I cannot tell if the news media has finally turned against their hero Bush?

So I ask, Has the media finally turned against Bush?

they are trying to justify why their whoring asses cheerleaded for an illegal invasion. They have blood on their hands and it doesn't feel good.

MSNBC has drastically switched up their coverage, especially on their website.

CNN has stopped being totally entertainment news and has started doing a lot of hard hitting stuff on WMDGate.

Even Fox has been at least covering a lot of this stuff and even O'Reilly is getting complaint letters about his "liberal" coverage and how he's "buying into" the Democratic "spin" machine.

So I would say, while there is still a lot of work for them to do, they have definitely changed at least enough to make it watchable.

You are right - that guy Lester Holt used to be so smirky it was really sick.

He was on yesterday and seemed to not be smirking anymore and was asking some grilling questions about WMD and the lies and the uranium!

I was totally shocked!!!!

:wow:

thanks

So they're poking Bush in the ribs -- so to speak -- just to see what his reaction will be. I'd have to say that thusfar, the administration's reaction has NOT been sufficient to call off the questioning.

I was watching CNN earlier and had to shut it off. Some bashing of the Hollywood liberals with Judy Woodruff snickering in the background. Really sickening. Unless this WMD story is put back together in a hurry, I think we'll see business as usual on Monday. I'm really depressed about the whole thing today.

it's too late for them to try to put the genie back in the bottle. big questions have been raised, and the questions will remain unsettled in people's minds unless some public resolution is achieved. silence won't cut it anymore. cheerleading won't cut it anymore. bush has been exposed as an flagrant liar.

Bush's approval ratings have dropped significantly, into the low to mid-50s, so serious damage has been done. I imagine some days will be better than others as far as TV coverage goes, but Bush is no longer seen as invulnerable, and that's a major change. There are so many things going wrong for Bush the media can't ignore all of them.

Mostly checking which way the wind is blowing, but a few are definitely giving the international one fingered salute to either the Bushies or their critics.

The White House is ramping up a damage control PR campaign, but they've now floated so many lies and excuses and red herrings that they can't really mount an effective enough defense of their foreign policy anymore. Expect them to obfuscate energetically for a few more days and then abruptly change the debate topic.

Fleischer got chewed up good by the press and the newbie, McClellan, is just turning into cannon fodder. They are definitely going to have to bring Hughes or Matalin in.

don't want to abandon the Pubs just yet but still the scent of blood is in the waters and they don want to be last out the gate.

They too are whores, looking for whats best for THEM and not America.

seem to be sticking. The base is on fire, and now those pink tutu Dems know it.

And it will only get worse. Lot's of people are insensed about the lying and the fact that they have been played and about the fingor pointing and not taking responsiblity for actions. Even more people are pissed about our soldiers dying daily in Iraq while the fat cats at home have begun to count the contract dollars rolling in.

The American public is at last catching up to the rest of the world with their disgust with the Bush administsration.
