-------------
1. In his report, the entire panel assumes that Ms. Todd is telling the truth about her mental state, although she is a proven liar.

2. The panel did not discuss HOW the story got out to DRUDGE prior to it being reported to the media....and so therefore, they are not asking the right questions, and will not get the right answers.

--------------
Anderson Cooper has to get away from Rev. Wright. I believe he mentions him at least once per show.
Asshole! Enough with the Pastorbaiting!

1. so the panel's take was basically
"Oh poor thing...let's hope she gets help..."


I knew there was a reason I didn't watch tonight.

4. Yep. Told them that this was not investigative journalism,
because they are being superficial.

Told them that they need to find out HOW this story got into the National Media.

Told them till they did that, I considered them ridiculous.

Also mentioned the Obama canvasser who was assaulted. That there was a bonafide news story about that, but it didn't go national. and that story was true!

2. Rec'd~ They're so damn willfully obtuse.
Who's the outlet that's going to get this story right?

Rachel, KO? Jon Stewart?

3. Not watching, what's happening?
Not covering the story? I thought so far CNN did a poor job from
what I saw on headline news but Sanchez did OK with it.
I will do this but like to know how Anderson is or not covering it.

Of course Rachel and Keith did a great job.

6. Unintended Consequences Alert . . .
Can anyone in American doubt the desperation and pathetic ineptitude of everyone associated with trying to get McCain/Palin elected?

(Procedural question -- once she realized she had scratched the "B" backwards (in a mirror, presumably), didn't she realize that the whole story was never going to fly? Is she just a stone-cold moron-American, or was she cleverly going to portray her attacker as dyslexic?)

9. and should Tom Foreman really be in the 4 plex when discussing race, after seeing
his face and hearing his words i'm going with---no. He was incredibly condescending and dismissive when codewords were being discussed.

10. Just called.
And getting really pissed off at the segment they just ran....all race, all the time, on CNN....why not do a segment on older voters who are afraid to vote for McCain because of his health? Why not say that some veterans probably just vote for McCain because POW! They are fucking obsessed with race.

13. they did another useless segment on the story
Edited on Fri Oct-24-08 09:55 PM by ErinBerin84
She is being held on 50,000 bail. No discussion of how this affects the McCain campaign, whether McCain campaign pushed story, how it got on drudge, etc. Just "she says she has mental problems and forgets things a lot". And this was someone who was a very active full time volunteer, not some random canvasser. Weak as always.

16. The fact that they take the word of an admitted liar about her mental faculties,
is beyond unbelievable!

17. just watched first part of the panel and had to turn it off, heh.
Fuck you, David Gergen. "She has mental problems. This lady ought to be forgiven and forgotten...small incident". Uh, whatever.
