Video: Keith's smackdown of KOPPEL

O.K., it's 12 minutes long. History (CRONKITE/MURROW) up to 3 1/2 minutes. First mention of KOPPEL at 6 1/2 minutes. Gets HOT at around 8 minutes. Smackdown of SCABBROW, "Conservative congressman is still here, gets 3 hrs to the three of ours."

The thread from last night piqued, but no summaries or content hints were available, just "Way to go, Keith" and "HUZZAH".

1. It was Vintage Keith

and he was right on target -

Ted Koppel and all the rest of the so called journalist tribe - right
Need two sides to everything? One truthful one and one lying one?
And What about the Iraq war runup - gee no facts at all

Howdy Doody Koppel - STFU

4. And the truth gets equal billing with the lies.

So the truth has no value. In fact, FOX takes just a bit of truth and supplements with lies. But no one will say that the emperor has no clothes. They get off easy: FOX is described as the alternative viewpoint.

2. Am I crazy or am I sick of "smackdowns"?

How about a reasonable and calm response that triggers dialogue?
