Candy Crowley. Grrrrrrrrr.

[Neecy]

This is at least the third consecutive presidential cycle in which CNN has assigned Crowley to the Democratic candidates. Her disgusted tone of voice, the way she wrinkles her nose as though she smells something bad, the little snotty digs show her to be the most biased reporter - again - covering politics.

Perhaps it's because when they assigned her to cover Bush in 2000 she was in total awe, whispering like she was in a church whenever she was within 200 yards of him. It was disgusting. Then they put her on Gore's campaign and she could barely hide her disgust and contempt.

Why is this bitter wretch trumpted as one of the 'best political reporters' on the air by Blizter? I want to heave whenever I see her mug. I have CNN on tonight because they're live, unlike MSNBC, and it makes me glad I otherwise never watch CNN.

(By the way - I'm now sorry that CNN is in HD. Anderson Cooper's eyes are totally bloodshot. Must have been quite the party last night).

1. she's a nasty shit, alright

[xultar]

2. Call her by her given name, Creepy Crawley.

3. I'd love to go up to Candy Crowley and say...

..."OH MY GOD! Did you like REALIZE that if you married Susan Candiotti's
brother, you're name would be Candy Candiotti! You should like SO
do that! How FUN!"

I'm in Iowa, so I might have the chance!

4. Candy? Crowley......Should have named her Buffet Crowley.

7. hahaha -- a fat joke, how clever

there are so MANY reasons to despise her, but I guess fat is as good as any

[Postman]

8. lighten up....

Your response tells me more about YOU.

I don't despise her because of her weight, maybe you do. In fact I don't "despise" her.

She's a rightwing shill, just like a gazillion other so-called journalists.

[Lex]

10. lol

[Captain Hilts]

15. Then why'd you make that comment if that's not "why you despise" her? nt

[ladjf]

5. I believe that Crowley's mission is to do everything possible to

hurt the election chances of any and all Democratic candidates. She is a professional political "hit journalist".

6. cnn sucks ass!!

anything with glenn bek in it is shit!!

[Triana]

9. On the video with JRE today, they inexplicably kept the camera on HER...

...I've NO idea why. JOHN was impressive as usual, but :wtf: was UP with them keeping HER in front of the camera and making us look at the back of John's head?

[Neecy]

12. I'd rather look at Edwards

[Lex]

13. Definitely.

19. Looks like she had her neck "done"

weight loss can lessen the "wattle", but she doesn't look like she's lost any weight..


Candy last year wearing her "wart" necklace

[Neecy]

27. I'm not sure how recent my photo was...

If I watch CNN again this week (very doubtful) I'll check out the neck for wattle-ness. The photo I posted might well have been years old.

[SoCalDem]

29. I noticed it from watching her on tv..not from a picture

To me , at least..her jawline is more defined these days..she's still full of shit though :)

[Neecy]

30. hmmm.....

I may actually have to watch CNN, then, because Crowley is like an old friend (who borrows money and never pays it back, steals your boyfriend, etc). It's a little early in the morning to focus on her neck - ack! - but I'll have a look later today. Now I'm sort of intrigued, which goes to show how easily entertained I am.

[Sparkly]

11. She is insufferable! nt

[Captain Hilts]

14. John King ain't any better. He might be worse. nt

[Neecy]

17. he's not great, but I think he tries to be fair

Remember in 2004 when Kerry went to a Red Sox game and the MSM took great delight in telling us that he was booed? King is from Boston and explained that any politician would be booed at Fenway and dismissed the 'story' out of hand. Everyone else on CNN was blowing it way out of proportion.

16. Candy Crowley. Any relation to Edward Alexander Crowley?

She is an obvious GOP plant. Eggplant.

[Wizard777]

18. Is she any relation to Aleister Crowley?

:evilgrin:

[Lucinda]

24. :) Probably not.

[Sultana]

20. Every time she comes on the TV

I change the channel, excuse my pun but what a bitch!

[JI7]

21. Bush's nickname for her is ButterCup

[americanstranger]

22. Actually, it's 'Dulce.'

Spanish for 'candy.'

23. I dunno. If it's ok for DUers to be nasty about Dems, I can't really get mad at Candy Crowley.

Fair's fair.

[DS1]

26. DU is supposed to be partisan, CNN is not

and DU has a much smaller reach than CNN.

[spanone]

28. she's a reporter, her job is to report not pontificate...or sneer

[Eurobabe]

25. Yeah her "I hate Dems" slip is showing

Why this woman is assigned to the Democrats, I will never understand. She's been a thorn in our side for years.

It's the TONE Candy -- no soup for you!
