Halperin on Rachel Maddow now. She played his O'Reilly clip.

That was sickening. Will she call him on it? Won't she?

He sounds pathetic to me.

He hurt us a lot by telling him that the media is biased toward liberals.

And many were praising his new book here. It this is typical I am not interested.

1. This is the ABC news director?

He is very wishy washy.

[madfloridian]

2. Equates Michael Moore to Ann Coulter.

Good Lord.

He says he did not tell the truth in his movie.

Then she sort of agrees Dems are pretty bad, and getting nasty in attacks.

I am so disappointed.

[LisaM]

3. And she shut him down on that

Good for her, about time someone did. It was on the tip of my tongue and she said it! About time! I'm tired of people comparing Michael Moore to Ann Coulter.

[madfloridian]

5. Not completely.

Sort of.

She is questioning, but she gets her digs in at Democrats.

4. Big difference

I don't see Moore all over the airwaves spouting hate filled speech like the man-whore Coulter.

6. He seems to be not very bright.

He is very odd.

7. ABC the new Fox? Halperin off to a good start...diary by Kos.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/10/25/194129/21

"The newly minted, Fox-style Conservative ABC is off to a great start:

"In a report on how recent campaigns advertisements are "getting ugly," ABC News, unable to point to a single instance of "nasty" attacks from Democratic candidates or their supporters, suggested it is only a matter of time before "the left" begins to "unleash its garbage as well." ABC News offered no evidence to back up its allegation that Democrats might soon resort to distasteful, negative advertising.

ABC News had no problem documenting ads, currently airing in campaign across the country, attacking Democrats, including one from the Republican National Committee about Democratic Tennessee Senate candidate Harold Ford Jr. In it, an actress playing a ditzy blonde bimbo says: "I met Harold at the Playboy party. ... Harold, call me." Critics, including one prominent Republican, have called the ad borderline racist.

At the conclusion of its report on attack ads, ABC News insisted that "Democrats aren't necessarily running clean campaigns." Unable to cite any examples, ABC News reported, "As the races tighten in the next couple of weeks, the left will likely unleash its garbage as well."


Mark Halperin is doing a heckuva job. It would've pissed off conservatives for ABC to air the truth -- that Democrats are running clean, fact-based campaigns while the GOP lies, race-baits, and plays the fear card. "

My commnents:
This guy is insulting Democrats and getting primetime airtime on AAR.

That's insulting to me.

8. Oopsy, mf - you mean biased to liberals. Needs an edit.

Cuz I KNOW you don't mean what's in your post. LOL

Halperin is a HUGE mediawhore and his book was merely a way to blame Democrats instead of acknowledging what shills they are for BushInc and have been since the 2000 election.

9. Thanks, edited.

Now I just got to watch 10 minutes of Bush again on Countdown. Think I will read a good book or something.
