Should Obama supporters plan a (lame) protest against CNN

[ecstatic]

like the HillaryClintonForum did at MSNBC? Every time I tune in to CNN, they are doing a segment that paints Obama in a negative light.

[Pirate Smile]

1. No.

[SunsetDreams]

2. no our candidate can hold his own...

I have no doubts about that.

I would rather protest against the war.

[2rth2pwr]

3. Good Lord, they are reporting what he said? Unbelievable.

[Bensthename]

4. I'm all for it if I were within driving distance.. Where is it Atlatna?

[taterguy]

9. Drive?

Why do you support oil wars?

[Bensthename]

15. Because I'm a fat ass that can't walk 1000 miles.

How do you go long distance may I ask?

[taterguy]

25. Depends on what your definition of long is and how soon I need to get there

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. No, because it would be just as lame and ineffective as the MSNBC protest.

[Bensthename]

6. yah but those protesters sucked,

[AllentownJake]

14. If we protest

We'll protest something real...like the Superdelegates overturning the popular vote and pledged delegate lead.

[Bensthename]

19. I'm trying to find Howard Dean's email to rant to him now. Still looking.

I want to tell him to light a fire under the super's asses.

[AllentownJake]

21. Nah

We should let Dean do his job. I trust the Chairman.

[MattP]

7. Only if they are made fun of

The only thing they would care about is if SNL mocks them, I bet the Daily Show rakes them over the coal for this coverage. I mean how many straight hours of Hillary speeches are they gonna make thier audience watch just to get one anti-Obama sound bite.

[stop the bleeding]

8. can we bring our bitters?

[DarienComp]

10. No, because we know that our candidate can handle himself.

[AtomicKitten]

11. Hell no. Let's leave the sniveling to the Clintons and the wingnuts.

[GarbagemanLB]

12. NO. Unlike Hillary, Obama can hold his own.

[AllentownJake]

13. Nope

They targeted NBC to go after MSNBC. They could have gone to MSNBC but the 30-40 camera whores there thought they could storm the Today show window because after 10 years of them having that window nobody's ever tried that before :rant:.

We believe in the freedom of speech. CNN has the right to broadcast whatever they want. If I don't like it I'll change the channel.

I think we are giving these cable channels a little too much credit...seriously what is there total viewership with all 3 10,000,000 of an electorate of 300,000,000?

[Robbins]

18. Well

I already boycatt CNN.I get my cable news from MSNBC.Now to be fair only Countdown Is truly fair to
Obama.I can tolerate Hardball.

[gateley]

16. CNN did a GREAT job

criticizing Hillary for "bittergate".

And I vote no for the protest. It was embarrassing to the protesters and the candidate.

We don't NEED to do that. Obama's winning. We can handle the lumps.

[depakid]

17. Just stop watchig their garbage

program the channel off of your TV. Simple as that.

[Zachstar]

20. No because while they do often run Anti-Obama stuff. They are overall pretty fair.

Now Fox news is a better protest target for EVERYONE!!

[AllentownJake]

22. You would think

To the shock of the Pot Bangers forum none of the main media outlets wanted anything to do with them.

Than they called Fox and a camera and O'Reilley producer rushed over...I wish I was lying.

This was followed by gushing over how great Fox news by everyone at the place except one person who said "Maybe we shouldn't be talking to Fox news..well I guess any publicity is good publicity"

[MattP]

23. Not Fair at all

Fair?, they run her speech attacking him and right after that they don't show his speech at all and they just show a snippet of what they say is his apology for his remarks making it look like he made a huge gaffe.

[chantalle]

24. Difference: CNN is not being sexist or racist

MSNBC was. Matthews and Shuster both had to apologize.

[AllentownJake]

26. They apologized

They are commentators not reporters for Christ sake...if you want to protest Misogyny why not go after Bill O or Rush.
