CNN Disses Al Gore

[montanacowboy]

couldn't wait to jump on Gore this morning; they brought out their resident brilliant scientific brain Miles O'Brien to tell us about all the errors in Al's film, and Roberts that POS grinning idiot

These people cannot shin Al Gore's shoes they are so fuckin pathetic and stupid

Now it's swiftboat time for Al

Instead of being happy for him and glad the planet has a brilliant spokesperson, we have the small minds, stupid and vapid anchors and pseudo know it alls harping on it

DOES AL DESERVE THE PEACE PRIZE? YOU GODDAM RIGHT YOU BUNCH OF LOONIES

[monmouth]

1. Time to start the e-mails not only CNN but MSNBC. Joey the Scar

is being a real a$$wipe this a.m. also. CNN should be ashamed of themselves. Hope Cafferty has some kind words, and maybe Lou Dobbs..

10. proud to be an American ONLY WHEN the American is a Repuke

2. The rest of the world understands Gore

And most of this country understands him too. It is a *very* small fraction of some American shitheads who don't like the fact that Gore is trying to do something good for the Earth because the shitheads are too busy playing politics.

3. Faux News is really slamming Gore too

We've got to support Al on this. The whole world respects him, but he's getting slammed here in his own country.

5. I'd be shocked if that wasn't happening.

4. Ultimately, one should ask the question "How many times can you get it wrong and still..."

Ultimately, one should ask the question "How many times can
you get it wrong and still keep your License to Pontificate?"

Like our friend MonkeyFunk, these pundits get it spectacularly
wrong time and time again. Yet they never seem to lose their
jobs or even have to make an apology or say "Mea Culpa!".
You'd think "news" organizations would care more about
their reputations than to let these sort of ignorant,
routinely-incorrect hacks go on getting it wrong every
time they step up to the mike.

6. Remember who owns CNN and the rest of Corporate McPravda.

Time-Warner owns CNN and they are the same scum who have told us since November 22, 1963 to believe what the Reich says.

TIME - Life told the nation when President Kennedy was assassinated that the Zapruder film showed his head moving forward when he was hit. That lie took hold because they bought and hid the film for four years.

I hate lies.

7. They are scared shitless that he might run

They think they can beat Hillary...they KNOW they can't beat Al. Today, Al reached global superstar status.
All the RW water carriers will be out in full force today swiftboating global warming.
They don't know how to build up their own candidates, they only know how to tear ours down.
The attempted dismantling will start today.

8. Not only that, but he

deserves the presidency he won!

[orleans]

9. oh, fuck them. they are ZEROS in comparison. n/t

[Canuckistanian]

11. They represent only 26% of only ONE country in the world

Ignore them. The rest of the world is celebrating.

12. When they do this shit...think of Jim Carey in Pet Detective...Speaking thru their asses

14. Oh, right -- the "news network" with anchors that don' t know enough about the issue ...

... to be able to talk about it intelligently for 10 minutes, while they're waiting for the live feed to cut in. I was watching their coverage of Gore's announcement this morning in California.

It was taking a few minutes longer than they expected, so they tried to pass the time by chatting about global warming. Unfortunately, they didn't know enough about the topic to do more than blurt out what they could recall from that news story about the British judge who ruled on the use of Gore's DVD in the schools ... they couldn't even discuss the supposed "errors" in the film, because they didn't have enough information.

So they decided to cut away for a commercial. When they came back on, Gore was already talking. They wouldn't have missed that part if they'd had SOMEBODY who at least knew enough about climate impacts to fill "dead air" for a couple of minutes.

Not that I'm blaming those anchors specifically, but their network bills itself as an international news authority. This is one of the most important issues of our time, and they can't spare someone to at least bring their on-air talent up to speed?
