Holy SHIT this is what CNN has sunk to
Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 11:13 AM by Proud2BAmurkin
This was at the bottom of the screen when Bill Schneider did his report:

"Bush's favorability rating ROSE from 51-55%"

"Kerry favorability rating remained FLAT at 52%"

3. it's not mutually exclusive
the math you sighted is only a problem if people aren't allowed to find BOTH kerry and bush likeable

in fact, you could have 84-72 and it would be fine.

4. Bill Schnieder, "bush has the momentum"and "Dems not energized"
Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 11:53 AM by nu_duer
I swear.

I saw this late last night, and there was a small "recorded" tag on the screen. But there was Bill saying that the Gallup poll showed bush had the momentum and that the Dems were not as energized as the repukes, and that Kerry needed to do something to energize them (us).

They then turned to the "War on Terror" - with the latest from Iraq. WOT=Iraq? No, cnn, they are not the same.

Then on Headline News they were doing a quick rundown of the endorsements from newspapers.

The graphic they put up had bush's face with the endorsements for Kerry listed below, and then Kerry's face w/ the bush endorsements. If a viewer hadn't known, they'd have thought the NYT had endorsed bush.

cnn is the sewer of cable news.

6. uhhhh
I dunno, they all suck, don't they?

msnbc is the only one I actually watch with any regularity, especially olberman.

What I don't get is why they all whore so much for that dangerous lilttle moron, after its clear the damage he is doing to our country.

Well, I do get it. Its the same reason bush sent our kids to die for his lies in Iraq - GREED.

8. You said the answer yourself
GE, which owns MSNBC, is making a killing off the war in Iraq.
