Local DC News is STILL talking about the plane flyover
they played 911 tape from Jersey City of people calling in frantically. Then they played, for only a few seconds, footage of Obama talking about the incident. They clearly framed it to make Obama look guilty. Assholes.

1. Perhaps you need to let it go.....
it was what it was.

You constant headlines on here aren't making it better.

Barack Obama was not piloting the plane, nor did he give the order to do so. Chill out.

5. I'm aware that this is my second fucking post. THIS post is about the damn news media
Edited on Tue Apr-28-09 10:34 PM by HopeOverFear
who are still talking about it the day after it happened. They're trying to frame it to look like it's Obama's fault. They never mentioned the apology or anything.

I DO NOT FUCKING BELIEVE THIS. I am blaming the news media, and two people in here are BLAMING ME. WTF is this, BIZARRO WORLD???

GOD DAMN...

and for what it's fucking worth, I no longer believe Obama should apologize, re: the other post I made. got it now????

10. Well, I don't care who is president
when something so stupid occurs.

Seems like something Bush would have signed off on. Perhaps Obama did not know, but I sure as hell hope he fired the moron who approved it.

Face it folks, we would be LIVID if this had happened with W.

12. Guess who else is stil talking about it: Press Secretary Gibbs
He raised it himself at the end of today's press gaggle as an example of something that should have been handled differently during the first 100 days. And, no, it wasn't brought up by anyone in the media. Gibbs used it as an example on his own.

So why wouldn't the press continue to be talking about it, particularly since additional information has been released today about the planning of the event and the fact that a similar flyover was planned for DC but has now been cancelled.

If hearing about what is actually in the news bothers you, you might try turning off the news.
