Does the media ever cover Joe Bidens speeches at his rallies?
I haven't seen one in weeks on cable.

Has anyone?

3. I've seen several covered in 10 min. spots. They didn't show the whole
speech, but they did about 10 nim. or so of them. I've seen several of them. They've been on CNN & MSNBC. I can't speak for any other channels because I usually just switch between those two.

19. No one tries to instigate violence at a Joe Biden rally...
...so why would the media keep an eye on them, like Palin's. I actually think it's a good thing that they feel they can cut in and out and just show parts of them. If *I* were still in journalism, I would totally want to be the first on-air when someone finally snaps at a Palin rally and goes off the deep end. It's not gotcha-journalism, but it's definitely something to think about from that side of the news desk.

Besides, all the women in the newsroom swoon when handsome Joe is on... it's hard to keep them focused! LOL

20. They don't have to show every one of her rallies live to keep an eye on her and her crowds
Edited on Mon Oct-27-08 11:14 AM by NNN0LHI
They are all videotaped and any such outburst that they felt was newsworthy could be shown any time.

That explanation doesn't pass the smell test.
