I fucking hate the media.

[coloradodem2005]

I hate the culture that it has helped to propagate. I hate the one-sidedness. I hate the lies. I hate the bias. I think that every last one of them except for the few that are actually honest will be brought up on charges. Including:

Everyone at Fox News, Scarborogh, Abrams, Russert, Woodruff, Crowley, Matthews, Blitzer, Sawyer and God knows who else. Everyone, except Lou Dobbs, it seems is shit.

1. That is why I blank out all those stations on my guide

I watch CSPAN, and get my news from international sources on the internet

[mountainvue]

2. Lou is the only Republican

I have the slightest bit of respect for. Wonder if he'll even vote this time around? I wathced Leslie Blitzer for about 20 minutes this morning and that was enough. He's peeing himself happy about the new terra threat.

3. you're not alone

that's my favorite thing about Fahrenheit 9/11, it's a big Fuck You to the media. Navy Seals rock!

[grannylib]

4. Link and Free Speech TV are the only TV media sources I trust...

the rest of them are all wrong-wing, corporate-controlled media whores.

[NightOwwl]

6. What's Free Speech TV and how can I get it?

[grannylib]

16. Dish Network on Satellite. It's the best.

[otohara]

5. I Love The Spin They Put On The Notion That Terra Threats Are Political

No one dare says that the reason it's hard for anyone to believe these threats is because 'BUSH IS A LIAR, HE CAN NOT NOT BE TRUSTED, FOR GOD'S SAKE THEY STOLE THE ELECTION BEFORE IT HAPPENED, THEY RUSHED TO KILL INNOCENT IRAQI'S'

I hate them more

[rumguy]

7. Brought up on charges?

I don't think that will happen. What would they be charged with?

[coloradodem2005]

9. Lying to the American public.

Obstruction of justice and aiding and abetting a criminal administration.

[Pathwalker]

12. Or treason - Robert Novak comes to mind.

As do Tim Russert and Tweety. (Plame investigation)

[coloradodem2005]

13. What do Russert and Tweety have to do with it?

Just curious. I know about Novak. Another reason to hate the media. Anybody who would allow that traitor to continue to have a job is bad and deserves to go down in flames.

17. Bob Novak

Is there anyone more despicable than Bob Novak????

[newyawker99]

20. Hi poyke!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[buycitgo]

19. cmon.....you KNOW the answer to that one

too many Bush puff pieces

[NightOwwl]

8. Poor Fox

They know it's their job to continously repeat the terra mantra, but they keep switching back to coverage of the Lori Hacking case.

You know it's all bull if Fox can't stay on message.

[flordehinojos]

10. even lou dobbs can make one of those anti-kerry digs that we all hate so!

:eyes:

[Tight_rope]

11. I share in your hate for the media....Fuckem all!

[Protected]

14. CNN has finally become Fox News 2 in my eyes

Today was the turning point. Watching Wolf Blitzer quote Ridge's "strong allies like Pakistan" spin just makes me want to go to the window and yell...

I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!

[CaTeacher]

15. This is embarrasing to admit

(because I hate most Repubs with a passion), but there is one I love--I think it is because of his great sense of humor. That is Ben Stein--he used to have a funny show called "Win Ben Stein's money". For some reason, I really enjoy him (he was in the Nixon administration--YICK--so I can't explain why it is that I can tolerate him). But I love a man with a sense of humor--and I enjoy it when he goes on the financial shows. (I even considered buying his book--I held it--picked it up--put it down and finally left without it.)

Ben Stein is my only Repug weakness.

[IronLionZion]

18. everybody copies FOX

because FOX is king.

CNN, NBC and the rest have interns constantly monitor FOX to see what they do. If they do something wacky like declare Bush dictator for life, the others will follow along.

Therefore there is really only one TV news source.

[VOX]

21. True. Saw a few minutes of CNN during the convention...

And their reactionary spin was jaw-dropping. From then on, it was C-SPAN for me.

Am anxious to see if BushCo gets similar treatment In NYC, assuming that they haven't declared martial law by then.
