MSNBC _ YAY Andrea Mitchell bringing up John Edwards -
Edited on Fri Jan-18-08 12:27 PM by kelligesq
Hillary advisor talking more about Hilary rather than about Edwards.

She's the only one who considtently has tried to bring Edwards name into the conversation...even with Matthews who cut her off.

We need to applaud Andrea and let Msnbc/NBC know we want equal reporting on Edwards the third candidate....just as much reporting on him that you have on obama and Clinton!

2. If she does it is probably suspect.
Wouldn't trust her motives even if she was the Virgin Mary.

23. Yeah, it's good that Edwards is finally getting a mention.
But I wouldn't trust Mrs. Greenspan any farther than I could throw her.

Edited on Fri Jan-18-08 12:23 PM by kelligesq
demanding more equal coverage and fair coverage THERE ARE THREE DEM CANDIDATES IN THE RACE AND ANDREA MITCHELL IS THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS MENTIONED EDWARDS AND WHAT HIS EFFECT ON THE RACE IS.

YESTERDAY BEFORE MATTHEWS DROWNED HER OUT SHE SAID " DONT COUNT EDWARDS OUT" BUT UYOU COULD HARDLY HEAR HER, EVERY TIME YOU MENTION EDWARDS MATTHEWS CUTS YOU OFF

11. My Letter
I applaud Andrea MItchell's almost fair and equal time reporting and mentioning JOhn Edwards today. So far I have counted three times and even a 5 second showing of the rally Edwards is currently doing.

I would like to see more of that rally and more of every rally he is doing everyday.

Andrea is of the school of fair and equal reporting.

It's a pleasure to listen to her.

I was disgusted with Chris Matthews when after the debate she was trying to say " Dont count Edwards out" and Matthews cut her off and talked over her LOUDLY - was he drunk? in need of insulin?

THERE IS A THIRD CANDIDATE AND I WANT TO SEE AND HEAR MORE COVERAGE OF HIM !

A SIGN OF A DEMOCRACY IS THE FREEDOM OF THE PRESS. WE DONT HAVE THAT NOW WHEN THE MEDIA IS DICTATING TO US ONLY TWO CANDIDATES WHOM ARE BEING PUSHED IN OUR DEMOCRATIC FACES AS OUR CHOICES.

WHO IS PUTTING OUT THE WORD NOT TO GIVE EDWARDS COVERAGE?

We have put Keith Olbermann and MSNBC on the map...and although we would dearly miss Keith, if the coverage doesnt get fairer than it is, we can take MSNBC off the map too.

Bravo Andrea.

Thank you for reading my angry criticism of your coverage or I should say lack thereof.

17. Good for her
Although I don't trust her, she's doing the right thing. The press non-coverage of Edwards has been a disgrace.
