CNN gave Palin about 3 times as much air time as Biden.
Edited on Sat Sep-06-08 02:11 PM by girl gone mad
This hour, CNN showed Palin speak for almost 15 minutes, then they had Biden on for about 5. They did the same thing yesterday.

I'm kinda sick of their bias.

1. same ratio here on DU. Those of us who aren't salivating to Rove's Palin-Bell keep getting
lost in a sea of stupid.

5. I never thought I'd have to hide so many threads on DU
as I have this past week. So much was just unreadable and repetitious.

Biden will take care of Palin. I have every confidence.

3. The media will try to control everything in this election. We have to win it on the ground
and mail. Do not expect to see any of Obama-Biden on TV during their campaign.
It will be Palin - McCain 100% of the time. Do not be surprised if CNN, MSNBC and Fox "News" reject all Democratic ads.

4. I will not allow CNN in this house
I'm not even visiting their site to check the news anymore. Their bias is utterly nauseating.

11. They're doing it again with McCain..
Edited on Sat Sep-06-08 02:39 PM by girl gone mad
They gave Obama about 15 seconds, and McCains been on for at least 5 minutes now.

Ugh!
