Andrea Mitchell Needs to be FIRED!!! Oh and who's Hardy from The Times?
Two things already have pissed me off that came out of her mouth. First off she talks about McCain's Veep choice when the discussion was entirely about Obama and the stadium. It's making me sick.

Secondly, she implies that the Obama campaign is over confident and they think they can fill the stadium. Gosh, she annoys me.

Some commentator from The Times named Hardy was talking to an earlier commentator who was speaking to Martin Luthor King's son. First off he was bored and uninterested and spent the entire time spouting out the GOP talking points. Makes me sick. I was like if you don't want the be there, go away. If you don't care about history, then go away.

I dislike these MSM reporters and damn pundits more and more.

Exactly. This is too wonderful, too historic, too absolutely
amazing to expend any negative energy. Change the damn station. John Legend is coming up right now.

3. They have gotten worse and worse every year since 1996.
And since 9-11, they don't even feel like they have to FAKE being evenhanded.

8. the only difficulty in
filling the stadium is logistics and security. As a reporter she'd have to be a clever shill or a total airhead to project this opinion over the real story. A few episodes of them actually eating a dead crow on air might suffice to end this foolishness.

10. Ann Curry too.
She was a pitbull backstage the last 2 nights grabbing onto Pelosi and I forget the guy last night. All she wanted was to start the Clinton vs Obama ball rolling. I hope she went home and cried when they didn't do what she wanted.

Ann the pitbull.

Andrea the rat terrier.

Neither one knows when to let go.

12. I have two sets - one on C-Span and one on MSNBC -
Edited on Thu Aug-28-08 06:43 PM by democrat2thecore
MSM coverage can't be one long Obama commercial - as much as we might like it. MSNBC (especially Chris and Keith) have been so pro-Obama and praising this convention that it's hard to believe we'd ever see something like that. We've come to expect MSNBC to be "our" Fox - and when there are any tough questions or a Republican spouts their talking points, or a correspondent dare question whether the stadium can be filled --- people here freak out. MSNBC is more than anybody could have asked for just a few short years ago when there was NOBODY in the MSM taking positions against the rightwing agenda. In my opinion - give MSNBC a break.

edit to fix a couple of dumb spelling errors.

16. They are bored and lazy, going with the familiar RW points. They didn't know how to cover......
McC until Rove's shop came on board, and that's what they do. Daily news handouts-instead of ours.
