3. Yeah, imagine if it was a bunch of Republics holding a presser.
Even though they're in the minority CNN.coN would be not only showing it in it's entirety, but replaying it every hour on the hour. Welcome to media whore nation.
:argh:

2. usually I have good things to say about the difference in coverage
of CNN and CNNInternational...but today it's beend Cuckoo for Coconuts Day. I've seen the same clip over 6x.

Spamalot cast sets coconut record

Original Monty Python cast member Terry Gilliam led the "clip-clopping"
The cast and creators of Monty Python musical Spamalot gathered in Trafalgar Square to set a new record for the world's largest coconut orchestra.
They led 5,567 people "clip-clopping" in time to the Python classic Always Look On The Bright Side of Life for the Guinness World Records (GWR) attempt.

GWR officials were due to hand a certificate to the cast confirming the record after Monday's performance.

The previous record of 1,789 was set in New York, US, last March.

4. I saw that too
As soon as Reid finished CNN cut away. I turned to MSRNC which was showing CHENEY. Then they had two talking heads on who drew a tie in giving opinions. WTF use is it to have the "he said/he said"? This isn't a matter of opinion, it's a matter of life and death for our soldiers.

5. Nothing on MSNBC either. It's all about the "worst weather in
America" right now.

Hey you DU'er's in OKC and environs, stay safe. Some nasty weather there...

6. BUSH says he is disappointed by the democrats
because they are trying to do what the voters told the country in 2006. Well we are disappointed in him. We thought he would have resigned by now. He could really do the country a favor and go cut brush permanently.


That's in the email I just sent him...

8. I can't understand why you people insist on using cnn for news
For years I've heard nothing but bad about cnn, msnbc, I won't even dignify that faux news outfit. It seems like you keep banging your head into the wall, you know they're slanted to put it kindly, nothing is going to change, they've got their heads so far up the piggies ass shit taste good to them.
To hell with them, let them keep misinforming the weak brained, better yet let the sob's dry up wither and die on the vine, do yourself, and your blood pressure a favor turn off the crap, quit giving them undeserved ratings.

10. I agree with all you wrote. However,
most of the US population looks at CNN and MSNBC for their t.v. news. (DU represents a very small minority of the politically aware.)

Because the cable influence is so huge, I choose to call these whores on their bias.
