17. Plausible Deniability
Yep...the "gatekeepers" of the "librul" media are sure on the job aren't they? :sarcasm:

Williams has always been a GOOP tool...just recently he slobbered all over himself over how a "war hero" Gramps was and how he listens to Rushbo and other right wing screamers...where he surely gets his talking points from. He used to irk the hell out of me during the Clinton inquisition as you could hear his hatred drip in each report he gave...and then would go on Imus and yuk it up with the hyenas there over another lame Clinton or Kerry or Gore joke.

Gibson...don't even get me started on that right wing shill...for years I couldn't tell him and Britt Fumes apart.

All the networks were onboard for the invasion...and in spades. There were ratings to grab...and big ones. Their worst nightmare was a last minute settlement...they were gung-ho to show those great battle scenes and chant "USA, USA"...be damned with what the world thought. There were also the big no-bid contracts companies like GE and others got in the "rebuilding"...war is good for the bottom line.

The saving grace here is that these stenographers are being looked at due to the rise of the Internet and that they're losing their ability to both control and manipulate "the news". Instead of admitting they wanted this invasion...and for their own profit...they just shrug their shoulders and pretend they were duped like the rest of us.
