All three cable networks airing * "Terrorism Speech"
Which is basically a litany of attacks on Kerry i.e. the standard stump speech.

I guess we shouldn't be surprised.

2. So are they giving Kerry equal time?
This isn't a policy speech. This is the second time the Busheviks have claimed to be giving a major policy speech but in fact gave a partisan attack against Kerry.

4. It's no policy speech
It's nothing but a campaign rally for the Bush Brownshirts, and the stenographers, commonly known as the media, go right along and copy everything down dutifully and report it as fact.

6. At the same time Gore is speaking LIVE on C-Span
This is not a LIVE NEWS EVENT as CNN posts but a partisan political speech that the campaign should be PAYING FOR!

8. The blame lies with the BC Camp, not the nets . . .
If the White House says that it's a policy speech, they're going to cover it. It's not like they can say no, and find out later that it really was . . .

The BC camp and the White House are pretty shameless here, it's amazing that they've tried this more than once . . .

11. Exactly
You proved my point. The media is merely carrying BC04's water like good little punk bitches. Proving they are the whores we all believe them to be.

They should know better.

14. They have to cover it but...
once they saw they had been duped there is no reason they couldn't cut away. If local "action news" is called to cover a fire that turns out to be a faulty sprinkler they get back in the "action news" van and go home. Doesn't take long to realize there isn't any smoke.
