UGH. I watched the last segment of Situation Room, then LOU comes on talking of "PRO OBAMA BIAS"
in the media.

Barf... seriously. This guy belongs on Faux News. He hits the nail on the head about 1/20 times - that's not enough to be getting a prime viewing hour for news on CNN!

Pro-Obama Bias in the news media??? How about Lou show the negative attacks on Pres. Obama just in the first week on Faux and talk about Anti-Obama Bias of Faux news and other programs, like my own".

HA

1. CNN is a very odd network
why they still have Dobbs and had that idiot Glenn Beck on headline news makes no sense to me. Well it does actually, the media has a conservative bias.

3. Didn't Beck lose his gig with CNN Headline News? Or move on to Fox?

7. I just saw him on TV flipping through channels the other day, it was FAUX NEWS!
He was grilling Kucinich, but was acting all crazy that he and Dennis agreed on a particular matter - he acted extremely juvenile. Dennis was so mature and noble and asked to come back on. Dennis is amazing.

2. Lou is media, and does nothing but negative attacks against Pres. Obama.
Why doesn't he believe that he counts as media? :shrug:

Everytime he talks against Obama, the Hispanic vote for Obama's re-election only grows.
So he should keep on talking.

9. true - he certainly turns votes. I know some Latinos who cannot stand him - therefore he encourages
them to vote Democratic.

6. Only because Obama hasn't said anything about Dobbs' racist issue.

8. I've never really cared much for Lou Dobbs
I like his anti-outsourcing platform but it doesn't make up for the sickening racist overtones of his immigrant bashing

12. I usually have MSNBC on, but when I flip channels and see people like Dennis K on Faux with Beck
(and Dennis rocked, so mature!) I watch the segment then turn it, but I certainly realize Lou is certainly someone who's views I don't like. He is good on anti-outsourcing but that aint enough to salvage his ship! He's horrible.
