MSNBC Running Hillary Biography AGAIN.. now During Prime Time
Edited on Sat Feb-09-08 07:06 PM by K Gardner
Okay.. this is outrageous. Enough already. This is a primary/caucus night. Other channels are going to cover politics. MSNBC, cowed and afraid, is running a Biography of Hillary Rodham Clinton for the second time in so many days.

Honestly people.. is this what we want? Can those other than Clinton supporters please write MSNBC and register your feelings. I know I'll be watching CNN or freakin FOX from here on out.

15. She had the GUTS to stand up to MSM
Plus she has a bio worth watching.
I might just have cable cut back on to see this.

21. So that gives her the right for unequal airtime? If she isn't paying
there had better be a fucking answer for this bullshit!

2. They're sucking up. It was on the other night and now again.
How many times are they going to air it and do they have them for all the other candidates? :shrug:

3. I was working so I had this on in the background with the sound off.
All I know is they picked some pretty darn unflattering pix of her.

8. Does it include her recent trip to Bilderberg?
She's a globalist and the spawn of Satan.

9. Have they run an Obama biography?
I do understand from the other night that Hillary bio was not all favorable.

12. No.. the other night it was Hillary Bio then McCain Bio. Nothing on Obama. And
I gritted my teeth and watched it, just to see how it portrayed her. I guess you really could slice it either way, Big Blue. It wasn't all favorable, but it wasn't all bad either. Would probably depend on who was watching it. I don't like her and I thought it was a favorable piece.

14. I think tomorrow they're rerunning the Impeachment Hearings to get out the sympathy vote.

16. This stinks like the MSM/Iraq punking
She's strong arming MSNBC. I bet this is in exchange for a debate, or to stop persuing Shuster's termination.

17. What is really going to be telling is when the "regular" programming resumes, or on the Sunday
shows when we see how the "pundits" are covering her. It won't be objective, that's for damned certain.

18. Just turn the channel until the biography is finished.
That's what I would do if they did that with Obama and I actually had that channel at all, which I don't. I don't have any of those upper channels. Life is better without them. Read and book. Take a walk. Talk to your family, i.e. conversation/quality time. All that jazz. You know: don't watch television for that hour or turn the channel. I rarely watch television any more at all (two hours a week, Ghost Whisperer and Medium, that's it) and I really do feel like life is better without the rest of it. I might up it to three hours a week when Jericho comes back on though. Oooh...

22. It has nothing to do with paybacks. It's giving unequal access.
If this was flipped - you would be bitching up a storm.

25. they've already bitched up a storm, that's why MSNBC is now on its
knees for her. This isn't going over well with the grassroots, and come the general election it will not be forgotten. I guess I can't blame a campaign for using every method at their disposal, but MSNBC may find itself on the wrong side of not only HRC supporters, but supporters of other candidates as well.

26. Apparently, it was a last minute decision to run the bio.
My digital cable guide says "Deadly Encounters" is supposed to be on.

28. I didn't know sour grapes smelled...but they do.
Can you say J.E.A.L.O U.S?

I know because I remember thinking/complaining about CNN showing the fighter pilot, war hero Bush Sr's biography over and over and over just before the ELECTION...not just a primary. It is madding to those who oppose the story! "I understand your pain!" But I'm personally :)

29. Strange....
My channel guide for DirecTv shows this to be "Deadly Encounter"...but it's the Hillary bio. Gee, almost worse than Mind of Manson! LOL.

30. Thanks for the suggestion. I will write MSNBC to tell them I approve of the Clinton Bio...
after the disgusting treatment she has suffered it's the least they can do.

31. that biography is very unflattering. They're doing Clinton NO favors. If it's the one I've seen
and i"m fairly certain it is, the best thing that can be said about it is it doesn't go into her killing Vince Foster.

32. Why aren't they doing election coverage?
For that matter, why are they doing anything other than news?

It seems like they rush Keith Olbermann and Dan Abrams on and off as quick as possible, so they can get the ratings and pay their bills, then they're bound and determined to go back to right wing propaganda - in the form of fear-mongering shows like Lockup, To Catch A Predator, specials on Charles Manson, and other various crime shows.

Damned disgusting if you ask me.

I WANT FUCKING NEWS!!!
