I watched the first part on Fox couldnt take any more kiss arse BS switched to the BEEB that was the same went to Al Jazeera at least there were no pundits on that
I did like the analogy of a hockey Mom and a pit bull i have never seen a pitbull wrapped up in mattresses looking like dunlop man and crash helmets and gloves yet though
The problem for BO is the media on the left they will still go after her 17 year old daughter (sex Sells) handing disenfranchised HC voters by the bus load to McC

Why do you/people watch this Fox news if its so bad ? Don't think I've ever seen it, is it on cable (which I haven't got) or UBC ?

Its on cable SJ we used to get CNN and CNBC but they charged for there service Fox is free
I watch it Al Jazeera, BBC world and ABC Australia (all free to the cable operator)and make my own views but as i have said before 1 says 80 killed 2 says 100 3 says 120 which one is correct averaging says number 2 is but the real figure is probably more like 50.
If you watch Fox you would never watch Al Jazeera they are a terrorist org according to them funny but i have watched it and David Frost and a lot of the EX BBC and ITV presenters are just no way even vaguely terrorists as for their news it seems to gel with ABC Aus more often than not
Having Fox as a WAY WAY far right station actually helps to move the truth to a more believable centre point
Having said that it is still not perfect crap in and by luck and experience i sometimes get close to the truth which is why i criticise the media
WL hit the nail on the head when he said if you want better news on where you live get it from somwhere as far away as you can find

| Does Rupert Murdoch set the agenda for his world wide media interests and the editors toe the party line in fear of their jobs? |

On an ABC Aus documentry about russia under Putin an editor of a state newspaper was challenged that he had never criticised anything the govt did his reply was
"Give me a name of a media outlet that has ever criticised or written against the owners interests and you will have increased my knowledge by 100%" end of interview
this should be on the other thread im getting confused this is about BO

Off Ron Paul's website:
| Quote: | Ron Paul to Make Major Announcement Next Week
Friends, Dr. Paul just authorized me to send this press release to the national wire. Stay tuned!
ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA – On the heels of his historic three-day rally in Minneapolis that drew over 12,000 attendees, Congressman Ron Paul will make a major announcement next week in Washington at the National Press Club.
More details will be announced Monday. |
Will he run ? If so will it cost McCain ? Why doesn't he have a surname ?

The BBC 'Have Your Say' site is overwhelmingly disapproving of McCain, yet the media present the contest as close. I guess the Pubs don't read the 'socialist?' BBC.
http://newsforums.bbc.co.uk/nol/thread.jspa?sortBy=2&forumID=5306&edition=2&ttl=20080906002105&#paginator
These fascist fruitcakes supposedly need to win the Centre if they are to prevail. How can they do that with these two scary monsters? I have to pinch myself sometimes to see if I'm not imagining it all.
McCain....'I represent ALL Americans. Honest!'....rapturous applause
'Universal Healthcare? No chance. You'll ALL have to sell your homes!'... the roar of approval nearly takes the roof off.
'You are all gullible dumbf**ks and every word is a LIE!'.... brings down the house, waves of adoration wash over him.
'Bomb, bomb, bomb. Bomb, bomb THE WORLD!!!'... My goodness, he's a shoe-in.
'Everyone who isn't white, rich and doesn't love the Lord is a goddam' 'terrorist!'.... 'McCain! McCain! McCain! McCain!'
'Don't vote for me. Vote for the balloons! Red, White and Blue. Aren't they pretty?.'.... crowd starts chanting... 'Balloons'... 'Balloons'... 'Balloons!'... 'Balloons!!!!'
Media verdict... Best ever Pub convention! McCain landslide guaranteed! Never seen such excitement!
My verdict? Please someone get me out of this madhouse. I can't take it anymore!!! |

I'm not taking sides, hh, as my post on Obama's speech made clear. Just highlighting the freak show that it all is
Having had 8 years of neocon horror, not sure it flies to talk about other people's mess.

I could put this post on any of 3 threads but i will put it on here out of respect for SJs Sidebet .Over the last 4 days i have been asking myself if BO has died why havent the media said something. During the primarys HC couldnt get a look in it was wall to wall Obama. Now since her speech and it covers all 4 news channels i get. it is wall to wall Palin

She is the fresh new news Sarge. It will probably settle down back to the main two soon, unless some skeletons come out of Palin's cupboard

I agree with you SJ its just that none of them has been asked hard hitting questions or any demands for their policys the yanks might as well be voting for Britney or paris . Just when will the media actually do the population a service and question these people on their ideas for the FUTURE instead of soundbites form the past
Its the future which matters

I think after watching Greta Van Susteren on the McC VP pick the following should be a slogan
Is it a bird "no" Is it a plane "no" Is it Superman "no" guess who ???
