Reply #62: Thanks for keeping it real

[malaise]

this 17 hour nonstop deification of Russert on GEM$NBC is mind blowing. They are taking the opportunity to to divert attention from Scotty's (and others) public criticism of their role in the lead up to the war.

M$M has decided that the news for the past 17 hours is about themselves...and of course ratings. Ah well - no need for further proof that the so called public airwaves are about the private interests of corporate M$M. David Gregory just said it's a national memorial because they can use this opportunity to remember Tim. They are doing this because they can.

This must be a painful time for Russert's family and friends but this is way over the top. It is now beyond vulgar arrogance.
