NPR will mention voting problems on All Things Considered

[Nancy Waterman]

now on but I don't know when in the broadcast they will bring it up.

[Nancy Waterman]

1. Should be on after a few minutes

After the news

[G_j]

2. they are poo pooing

the whole issue. Supposedly 'debunking'
No mention at all of voter suppression.

[Nancy Waterman]

3. OMFG!!! What a whitewash!!

They don't give the other side. They quote Zogby's mea culpa but conveniently leave out that he says the exit polls are absolutely accurate, as does Dick Morris.

[G_j]

4. whitewash seems to be the correct term

there is no way an 'agenda' wasn't behind that story.

-Those asking questions are all 'conspiracy' nuts, nothing to see here.
They also seem to think they can explain it ALL away in this very very, brief and lacking segment. NOT

I suspect they will receive a lot more email over this transparent whitewash piece.

8. Didn't you just love how they dismissed O'Dell's promise to...

"deliver Ohio" - An unfortunate choice of words and now Diebold executives are forbidden from electioneering. :puke:

5. This a.m. NPR was full of shit, too.

first they let some asswipe say that city dwellers don't believe in "hard work" or "family" the way the sainted rural americans do, then they let a direct-mail evangelista spout off with no counterpoint.

they turn my stomach & will never see a dime from me.

[hatrack]

6. End of the line for me, too - not another fucking dime

I'll stick to the usual net suspects - AFP, Deutsche Welle, Reuters, BBC, Xinhua, Yomiuri, Die Zeit, FA, etc., etc.

7. i'm lucky that KBCS plays Democracy Now

I'll wake up to that from now on.

[tavalon]

13. Yep

I've noticed of late that NPR seems to be drinking some of that old time Kool Aide.

[Obviousman]

9. this was such a weak report

[Karmadillo]

10. And I hope there are a lot of Republicans willing to shell out $$$ during

the next fundraiser. It's their network, after all.

12. My folks have stopped sending them $$. Unless we get a lefty in the WH

and can get the Fairness doctrine reinstated, there's no point to supprt them any longer.

However, there are other radio stations to listen to:

11. "reporting" like that should be a crime!

That was not "reporting" or even good spin. blatant whitewash.

Awful.

:puke:
