1. No doubt he got the memo from the Reich.
Global warming is just one of those liberal superstitions, like evolution. Some people believe in it, like some people believe in astrology or ouija boards. But it's not like anybody could actually prove it's real. Anyhow, believing in global warming is bad for business.

And hey, Aaron? Bite me, you whore. I used to kind of like him, but he's proved himself to be a mediatoady like the rest of them.

you believe in that whole gravity thing.

6. I think he tries so hard to appear "unbiased" that he ends up looking
like a complete idiot to both sides. I can't stand watching him or his show.

17. I liked him before the Election, but since he's been...
talking Party 'line' too much for me.

In fact last night he ended the show with a piece about a company that does building demolition...and he showed several videos of buildings collapsing due to demolition. He ended the show by saying smirkingly, "What...was that a bomb!?" And he laughed. Only it wasn't funny, and he's not a comedian. It fell flat, and he just looked at the camera with an awkward, embarrased pause...and signed off.

Clearly he was making fun of that 9/11 Conspiracy guy who says that the Twin Towers collapsed due to detonation.

CNN is getting so weird lately anyway, and it's not just Aaron B. This weekend, they're having a religious special called "The Two Mary's?!!!"" What is going on? Please tell me?

7. Since I'm off "the grid", I no longer even see Brown.
I do recall him as an effete, foppish, pedantic, putz; a "nattering nabob of negativism;" afraid to take a stand one way without bending over for the other. Ah, CNN, we hardly knew yee! You're on the ropes and headed for the canvas. No mandatory eight counts for you. CNN's done, stick a fork in them!

9. From what I've seen of him
he's always seemed like a mealy-mouthed cipher.

10. Give it up
There's nothing on cable news worth watching, except for Olbermann.

And, of course, The Daily Show.

15. He's a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.
He can be so good on some nights, and so bad on others. But I have heard Randi Rhodes describe him on more than one occasion as being one of the good guys. And he was the one who set the whole record straight about the missing explosives in Iraq -- which has conveniently disappeared from all news.

In the end, however, I've given up all cable news -- so I really don't care.

16. He was sarcastically getting his digs in at the anti-science
nimrods marching in goosestep with the neocons. That's my take on it, anyhow.

Aaron Brown does a pretty job. He brings a lot of humanity and sanity to cablenewsville.

18. He's become increasingly biased toward the Right.
Tonight he had a segment on Social Security reform. To make the argument for reform, he brought on a Republican AND a Libertarian!!!! Daaaa...guess what their position on Social Security privatization was? Plus the Republican lied about the present solvency of Social Security. He said that Social Security was due to run out of money in 2024, YET the truth is it is not due to even be in trouble until 2075. Once again, scare tactics and lies.

No, I don't like Aaron anymore. He's not fair and balanced like he use to be.
