If Tweety doesn't rip O'Neill a new one right now he should get a torrent
Edited on Thu Sep-23-04 06:39 PM by Pirate Smile
of extremely negative e-mails.

Well, let the torrent begin. That was simply disgusting. He didn't challenge him on anything.

14. I learned years ago that it is useless to email Tweety. He is a
tone deaf DC insider who only listens to other pols and pundits like himself. He does not care what the viewers think. He has demonstrated that over and over. He is a two headed snake. PERIOD.

25. He probably did this kiss up interview because he caught so much
RW hate mail. We need to make sure there is plenty of pressure on the other side.

9. Tweety Turd, not Tweety Bird
Edited on Thu Sep-23-04 06:46 PM by aint_no_life_nowhere
The guy is an incredible disgrace even to talking head whores. He even makes media whores look good by comparison. When it came to Bush's military service, he gave about 10 minutes to the CBS memos before their authenticity came into question, saying "who gives a rat's ass what happened 30 years ago?"

But he has virtually nightly discussions about whether John Kerry is a traitor or not for his actions more than 30 years ago.

Tweety Turd.

to be a guest every time MoveOn releases a new ad.

Why does Chris Matthews constantly invite the Smear Boat Liars on?

Because he's a whore for Bush.

12. He's giving him free reign
A platform any political player would kill for.

His "challenges" are in the form of questions so diplomatically worded as to be worthless.

He's clearly impressed by the number of books this guy has sold.

Whoredom. Total whoredom.

13. He's Felating O'Neill
Letting lies go on...

Here's one that should be debunked and fast. Yes, Ho Chi Mihn DID model a Vietnamese constitution along the lines of the U.S. Constitution and invoked Washington & Jefferson as inspiration. He did this after WWII...when he was our ALLY...then we & the French stiffed him and the popular will of the Vietnamese people...which led to 30 years of needless bloodshed.

What a depressing display of media whoring.

was reeling out the rope for O'Neil to hang himself. He didn't call him on anything. This was the most spineless thing I've ever seen the thoroughly spinless Tweety bird do. I know not to expect much from Tweets, but this time I am stunned.

29. I have been writing Tweety encouraging emails everyday
telling him to stand up to the pressure he is receiving from Rove et al and expose them. They have been somewhat gentle and mostly appealing to his ego. . .

The one I just wrote was NOT SO GENTLE. . . . . . . . . . . . .

How do we email his higher ups?

on Rick Kaplan too. It's time to email him and let him know. He's responsible ultimately for the bullshit that goes on at Hardball, Deborah Norville, and Scarborough's awful piece of shit program.

I think tweety improved a bit because of Kaplan but now he has regressed. Let's let Kaplan know we notice!

30. I'm surprised nobody mentioned
O'Neill's outrageous implication that when Kerry met with the N. Vietnam reps in Paris that it was "by strange coincidence" during one of the most deadly months in Vietnam, implying Kerry was a traitor passing info to the north vietnamese. Normally Tweety's ears would perk up and he would aggresively challenge such a baseless and outragious remark, but he let O'Neill have a pass, as he did during the entire interview.

Edited on Thu Sep-23-04 07:44 PM by SeekingTruth
Mr. Fredrick,

I simply cannot believe Chris Matthews' interview with John O'neill on this episode. I am at a loss for words. It was the most terrible, biased and softball interview I have ever seen. Especially when one considers how people like O'Neill have been continually discredited.

I cannot believe the charges that Matthews let go unanswered or even unchallenged. And where was an opposing opinion? It certainly did not come from Mr. Matthews, who in the previous segment criticized the new Swiftboat ad.

Shameful, Sir.

33. At the very minimum he could have asked the
Shitboat Commodore why he felt it necessary to tell such whopping lies about Kerry and to take his words out of context. Tweety can't claim ignorance anymore, since he just took apart the latest ad and is aware of the circumstances regarding Kerry's trip to Paris.

Was it too much to ask for Tweety to put some mild questions to O'Neil? I was hoping for a Michele Malkin moment, but no such luck. Tweety mush have gotten one hell of a smackdown at the hands of KKKarl Rove. Enough of one that he'll sit quietly smiling as a piece of shit calls a Massachusetts war hero a traitor to his country.

To have O'Neil on solo without a Kerry supporter was pure evil. Tweet's old mentor Tip O'Neil (D. MA) is spinning in his grave.

He had Frank Rich on and they were talking about The CBS memo investigation. Rich says there is still a parallel investigation going on at some networks to find out more about Bush and TANG. Matthews shakes his head and says, in a tone of exasperation, "but that was a long time ago."

:wtf:
:nuke:

You just talked for 1/2 and hour about John Kerry's service in Viet Nam. I usually give Tweety the benefit of the doubt but now all I can say is FUCK YOU CHRIS MATTHEWS! You have just become a part of the problem. Add another shill to my list of no-watch shows.

Matthews attempts to be controversial by taking on both sides. He was a hard ass to CBS over the memos, then he was tough on Bush when interviewing McCain and Biden. He is trying to increase his ratings by taking on both sides. Your emails show he you are watching his dreadful show.

49. I had to email him even if it's useless
Hey Chris,

Just wondering how it feels to fellate Mr O'Niell? I am soooo glad I don't waste money on cable TV anymore! Having the misfortune to witness this abomination of so-called "news" or "journalism" just reinforces my decision. I had realised for quite some time that commercial news media was a worthless resource, but having the opportunity to see the degradation as we approach a national election assures me that it was a sound decision. In order to justify what I'm sure is a substantial compensation, don't you feel compelled to do some research and question the assertions of your guests? C'mon Chris give me some reason to consider you a reasonable source of information.

53. My email

I was so disappointed in your "interview" with John O'Neill. Surely you know that John Kerry did not say all Vietnam soldiers were war criminals, or that they were the "army of Genghis Khan," or that Ho Chi Minh was George Washington. Surely by now you know that O'Neill takes quotes out of context, changes and distorts them to mislead. Yet you didn't call him on any of it.

Even more disappointing, when the CBS/Bush TANG story came up, and it was mentioned that the real story of Bush's irresponsibility has been covered up by the five spurious documents, you made a dismissive remark about how it was all a long time ago, anyway. Well, Chris, it was equally long ago that John Kerry, a bonafide war hero, rightly protested that war, yet you let John O'Neill lie repeatedly without question, comment, correction, or reminders that it was "a long time ago."

I just mailed him. Among other points, I said it's time to bring the shadowy hate-spewing Freeper co-author Corsi along next time. Why should O'Neill get all the media and all the "credit"?

People need to see this full-frontal ugliness for what it is. Sunshine is the best disinfectant and all that.

55. Free Ads for SBLiars
Those people paid for ads in a few markets, yet all they have to do is come up with anything outrageous and people like Tweety are falling all over themsleves to make sure the entire country sees it.
They replay them over and over.

At what point can this be considered a donation to the campaign?

Tweety is an entertainer not a journalist so he really can't hide behind journalism credentials. This is an out and out donation to the Bush campaign.

57. You still watch that garbage?
Negative emails are good for MSNBC because they know you are watching the show. The best way to deal with Chris Matthews is to change the channel. I haven't watched that garbage for a long time and I don't miss it. You won't miss it either I guarantee it. I thought I wasn't going to be able to do quit watching that crap but I went through the 12 steps and I'm no longer watching that incompetent fool for several weeks.

So don't be afraid and quit that stuff... I bet you can do it cold turkey! :-)

58. The point is, Tweety isn't in it for the ratings. If ratings mattered..
he would seriously consider our criticisms. He would revise the way he conducts his show. In all the years I've been watching him, he has become progressively worse. He's a shallow, empty-headed, blowhard. He only cares about the DC buzz. He knows nothing about what people like you and I think. And he obviously likes it that way.

59. They Do Consider Our "Ratings" & Criticisms
and it says there's more money and ratings when you pander to the wingnuts. Faux still leads the evening ratings and as long as they do, the other cable apes will try to be just like 'em. I'd bet if Faux's ratings took a dive, the rhetoric would be a lot fairer.
