--Barbara West--"The thing that stuns me is that this has become about me,"--

I smell bullshit....read the whole article....apparently, we're not writing to them enough with our disgust..





"West received 10,000 e-mails about the Biden interview — she estimated they were 9-to-1 positive."

<snip>

Jill Geisler, who teaches ethics and management at the Poynter Institute journalism school, said West has a right to ask any question she wants. "Depending on where you sit, you may say, 'Somebody finally asked the question I had,' " Geisler said. "Others would say it's loaded language."


Geisler found some of West's language hyperbolic and described the anchor as coming from a point of view similar to those of talk-radio hosts Sean Hannity or Rush Limbaugh.


"I can ask you, 'Have you stopped beating your wife?' and say it's just a question, but there's an assumption embedded in it," Geisler said. "There was a world view in those questions."

1. Yet when asked her political preference,

She says, "I don't think I should say."

No kidding. Because then you'd be outed for the GOP propagandist that you are LOL.

Poor little Barbara. Someone needs to call a waaaaaaahmbulance. :-)

4. Yeah, and I thought it was abundantly clear

that she hangs out with RIGHTWING FRUITCAKES, because to hear her tell it, she asked the questions people want to hear.....uhm, yeah, if the ONLY people you hang around with are fucking repukes.

5. Exactly.

Evidently she has frothing-at-the-mouth friends who talk about Marx and wealth distribution? Mmmhmmm. She is such a joke.

2. Dear BW, it IS about you. You're the one who is ABUSING a PUBLIC RESOURCE, i.e. the Broadcast

Spectrum.

I look forward to the day when I will pull the plug on Corporate Media LIARS.

3. "There was a world view in those questions." Exactly. And a big FAIL for Barbie West.

And Barbie, the reason it has become about you is because you made it about you when instead of asking a straight question you prefaced your questions with bullshit quotes from the Communist manifesto.
