Howard Fineman: KING WHORE
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6028610/

See Howie's article above. Basically says that Kerry's a flip-flopper, Kerry's almost dead, and the election isn't really Bush v. Kerry, but Bush v. Insurgents. He beats the insurgents, he wins.

Nice to have a librul media!

5. The Ugly Truth That Is Never Spoken- GE=War Is Good
Edited on Fri Sep-17-04 05:00 PM by redstateliberal
I don't watch any of their shows- I know Olbermann gets a few licks in, but I believe when crunch time comes he will be told to get on script. I've taken a lot of shit in this forum for believing that GE sets the agenda for their media outlets but I believe it. Maybe my tinfoil hat is on too tight, but they have gradually removed or marginalized anyone who dares to undermine their agenda. It's sad when the only two talking heads on TV that promote the truth on a nightly basis are a comedian(Jon Stewart) and former sportsguy/funnyman Olbermann. We're gonna win this one on our own folks. And I believe we will.

2. Why does Gallup count the most?
Are those people's votes worth more than the people in other polls. Didn't Gallup have Bush up by 10 or so points in its final poll before the 2000 election, which Gore won.

Howard Fineman was one of the progressive reporters that met with Kerry at Al Franken's apartment to give campaign advice to back in March. I'm not sure it's fair to call him a whore. Despite being left leaning, I think hetries to call them as he sees them.

First Post!

If that were true, he would stick to the facts, and not parrot the RW talking point that Kerry is a flip-flopper. Says who? (Bush of course!)

Whore!

6. Fineman is not progressive. He's been shilling for *. Though I believe.
that he can be bought off when Kerry wins in November.

9. Oh dear, he is far, far, from being left leaning
All he does is spew Karl Rove talking points.

10. he is a progressive, BUT he is also a HUGE HUGE whore
hes protecting his equally huge paycheck

its very obvious

there are a lot of them out there like WHoreward, and I hold them in much lower regard than even John Fund, who doesn't hide his fascist mien

the socalled liberal media, for whatever reason, do worse by refusing to even report the REAL FACTS, in their efforts to protect their access, their fat paychecks, their entre to the coolkid world

I just can't recall him doing a piece that put a good light on progressive policies maybe I missed them.

7. actually, hes right....if they can successfully conceal the real HELL
Edited on Fri Sep-17-04 05:04 PM by buycitgo
thats erupting in Iraq, they probably WILL win

he IS a whore of the highest order....I call him Whoreward Fineman...but the pugs are mounting a HUGE campaign, starting next week, with Allawi speaking before congress; a FULL ON, totally Orwellian attempt to put the CLAMP on all negative stories about the Iraq miasma...they're going to go crazy with OPTIMISTIC stories, and label anyone reporting the truth an unpatriotic naysayer

Bush is, once again, a prisoner of events, as he was earlier in the year. the difference this time is his attempt to CONTROL information flow, as things get worse by the day over there. he's hoping his hated liberal media will fall in line, as they always do.
If they do, he will win. forget about the other stuff. they are CHOOSING to make this their fight; to tie it into the bogus war on terror. its ALL they have to run on. they have NOTHING else, besides smearing Kerry

this isnt me....its out there. they were talking about it on AAR today

funny the dems arent mentioning it

just watch

8. Remember before 9/11
Fineman would try to explain Bush to America, it was so cute. I don't have any links right now, just a memory of throwing up occasionally.
