So, I flip through CNN the other night for just a MINUTE...

[tom_paine]

Once in a while I will do that, just to test a Theory.

So I randomly flip on CNN to test the theory that CNN has gotten EVEN WORSE now and that the Democratic Convention was one long Bash-a-Thon.

It starts of innocuously enough, a young Asian Female anchor. I don't know any of the new fresh Faces of Pravda the Imperial Allies at CNN are bringing along, so I don't know who she is.

It's a story on, surprise surprise First Ladies and How to Be a First Lady.

The Pravda is becoming so simple and laughable it went something ike this...

CNN Anchor: First ladies of the Past. Look at Jackie Kennedy, here she is all smiling adoring and supportive ovf her husband. Is this how a First Lady should behave?

Do Americans want an aggressive First Lady as Theresa Heinz Kerry?

*REPLAY "SHOVE IT" COMMENT WITH NO CONTEXT*

My God, you'd think the fact that the man who provoked this incident PROUDLY AND LOUDLY proclamied himself a member of the VRWC, etc the usual Orwellian Memroy Hole.

Of course, all of this relevant data is BadFacts and NOT permitted to find it's way to the NEWSPEAK Broadcasts. So, the man who did it an unperson, no data necessary, no background required.

Hell, in the clip I saw they cropped him out of the picture so that you couldn't see his face?

(who says the Psyops boys aren't learning new things?)

You know, it is really getting very Orwellian out there. VERY VERY Soviet now. It's like after F911, they said, "We'll show you how REALLY BAD we can be."

Now they are doing it. Goebbels on steroids.

Can we stop this?

1. On the other hand

Larry King had a wonderful interview with Bill Clinton that was shown on Saturday. So all is not bad.

11. That 5% is the only difference left between them and Faux

But the difference is getting slimmer every day.

2. I saw it to...

she is the "did Kerry blow his wad" lady as well. I believe her name is Linda Chin, but you can call her Tokyo Rose.

[lostnfound]

3. What a smart-a** she was! Or a dumb one, maybe. So annoying.

Thanks for the name. Glad to get it, because I wanted to write CNN about her. She SNEERED over the Teresa video, rolling her eyes.

5. Carol Lynn (sp?)

Caorl "Did Kerry blow his wad?" Lynn. Disgusting.

7. PSYOP is right.

Remember the US Army "interns" working undercover at CNN in 2000? WTF?

US Army Psy-ops personnel assigned to CNN, NPR

by J. Max Robins, TV Guide     April 15, 2000

Top executives at CNN and National Public Radio were more than a bit surprised when they learned that their organizations had used interns from a rather nontraditional source-the United States Army's Psychological Operations unit (PSYOP).

"We have interns from all over the world, but they are accredited journalists or studying ," says Eason Jordan, CNN president of news gathering and international networks. "But those interns had no business being here."

Both internship programs were ended shortly after top management learned of their existence.

A highly specialized unit of the military, PSYOP personnel are often trained in the production of videos as well as television and radio programming used to advance American policy abroad. "In Somalia, we broadcast on radio and shortwave," says Lt. Col. Paul J. Mullin. "We've helped countries in South America produce antidrug public-service announcements."

The Covert News Network

Greg Bishop

EXCERPT...

During the Kosovo conflict, the Cable News Network (CNN) hired five staffers it referred to as "interns." These interns were working for no pay to learn the intricacies of the daily operations of CNN, presumably to be put to use in their later career paths. The problem is that they had already settled into another career: they were employees of US Army Intelligence. Liberal bastion radio network National Public Radio (NPR) also admitted to hiring interns from Army Intel during the same time period.

8. I take it you're not a 'regular' viewer of CNN...

If you were, you would probably have been admitted to a psychiatric hospital by now or have had a heart attack. It is worse than you might imagine.

I can choose either CNN or FOX on my line-up of cable news. I NEVER watch Fox - just won't do it. Therefore, most of my news needs are all "satisfied?" by CNN. It really gets worse every day.

Yesterday I watched as Wolf Blitzer reached the most abject nadir of his career. I have never seen him in such strong GOP shill mode. It really was the most blatantly partisan I have ever seen him. He was extremely defensive with Howard Dean, and maliciously took poor Senator Byrd apart (on purpose, I declare) because he is so slow cognitively now and is incapable of making a good case. Wolf was just awful to the poor man. This is to mention just two instances... believe me the his entire broadcast was rife with GOP propaganda.

Anyway, I just want to wretch when I watch it, but I really do want to at least keep up with current events on TV. It's truly sad how the media is now completely conusmed by right-wing flack, but it is just so. It's either gag it down or turn it off... the only choices I seem to have now. :shrug: :grr:

9. It's Worse Now Though

10. CNN, foxier than Fox

Rove has shifted the propoganda from Faux to the Cheney News Network.
