the current crop of assholes that work there today!

:rofl:

Just watched the video clip and he just crucified them...it was brilliant!

I linked it to my facebook page.

I LOVE the ending "Fuck You.... between the two of these guys I can't tell you which one I'd rather see in jail"..

1. It has become so ridiculous only a comedian is honest enough for the absurdity of this mess.

2. I thought CBS News lost a golden opportunity when they took out Dan Rather
At the time they also owned the Comedy Channel and I thought they should have made Jon Stewart CBS News Evening Anchor because he is just brilliant. He claims to be doing "fake news" and to not be a reporter but honest to God he gets to the heart of the news stories in ways that the so-called "real" media never does and he is very successful at keeping an audience to boot.

Instead of that idiot Katie Couric, they could have had Jon Stewart... what were they thinking?

:crazy:


Doug D.

(Of course all the so-called "real" reporters would have probably quit in protest because their egos would have taken a beating...)

3. I am no fan of Katie Couric, however she must have helped Letterman nail McCain.
I seriously doubt she was unaware of the live feed.

4. Actually I'm pretty sure she's JUST that dumb that she was an unwitting accomplice
in throwing Johnny under the bus.

5. If I were CNBC I'd pack up shop and lock myself in a tax-free UBS vault
alongside the likes of other swindlers like Marc Rich.

6. Ha! I just linked it to my facebook page this morning, too
I wish everyone would watch Stewart and have their eyes opened to the obvious. He and Colbert cut right thru all the BS we're spoonfed by the M$M.
