Poll question: Last week's news.
Edited on Mon Dec-15-08 08:40 PM by ColbertWatcher
Usually, I just post a "week's most important news story" poll on Fridays, but after watching the shameful way the GOP-controlled media ignored the GOP "Action Alert" memo (proving they intended to damage American automakers as a way to get back at unions) to spend all weekend-long discussing how quick Dipshit reacted in the shoe-throwing incident (while able to somehow exclude information about the reporter who threw the shoes), I've decided to start a new weekly poll: Last Week's News, as a way to discuss news that may not have gotten the attention or coverage it deserved.


Which story from the previous few weeks would you like to hear given more coverage by the GOP-controlled media this week?

A. Madoff charged with $50B fraudThe USA Today

B. 1/5 of world's coral already deadAFP

C. GOP members of U.S. Senate block passage of bridge loan for Detroit automakers based on an "Action Alert" that targeted unionshttp://thenewshole.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/12/12/1713569.aspx">MSNBC

D. Blagojevich

E. Zimbabwe facing famine and http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7784392.stm">cholera epidemic

F. Updates regarding Galveston and Ike

G. ice storm and power outage in Northeastern United States and related issues (winter heating fuel costs, etc)

H. Muntadar al Zaidi may have been kidnapped and beaten a year before throwing his shoes at DipshitAlterNet

I. Other, I will post my suggestion in reply

J. None, I don't care to hear old news, I just want to hear about the latest stuff!

2. I voted other because...
I would like to see topics A through H as the top stories on the Corporate Owned Media Snooze. I quit watching them back when Regan won his second election. I knew we were in deep $hi+! back then.
