CNN, Candy Crowley and Swiftboat Veterans, the Mobius Loop of
Disinformation, I've been watching CNN for the last two hours and I see nothing but Candy running the SBVT ad and questioning the truthfulness of John Kerry, posing leading questions to imply John is being less than honest and wondering why the issue won't die, Fuck CNN, the least most trusted name in news.....betrayal makes them the least most trusted, at least we know what to expect watching Faux. That bitch needs to address the "battle of the bulge" around her waist.











sorry to those overweight people I've offended with my last line. I aint skinny either

4. Great Advice - Give Candy Bushbot Crowley the back of your hand
Media regard themselves as primadonnas. They are really cowards.

Obviously, the brains that were in her head have falled to her midsection.

She needs to be told that the media are hatching stink eggs for Bush and no honorable person will or would tolerate smeargate and the attempt of the Bushies to divert national attention from the real issues.

3. She was bitching yesterday about Kerry taking...
"dainty bites".

Mike Malloy punked her ass over it, saying she sure as hell doesn't take "dainty bites". It was funny as hell.

5. Cmon, CNN is not anti-Kerry or anti-Dem.
I know it's fashionable here to call anybody to the right of Mother Jones part of the Vast Meida Conspiracy that steals socks from our laundry, but it's widely accepted (outside of the fringe, cough, here) that CNN was the official press organ of the Clintons. They are easy on Kerry as well.

I think CNN has no allegiance or orientation at all, but is merely defanged of any serious criticism of any major candidate. They have stupid screaming shows like Crossfire that don't lead to any intelligent criticism -- they don't have anybody who is willing to be a non-partisan smasher of icons. They're terrified of offending anybody and losing their access, just like the rest of the network press.

6. CNN is actually the most insidous network on the air
if you listen astutely and are familiar with communication and marketing tactics- you'll see that CNN is far worse than Fox in terms of right wing bias- both from it's reporters and its so called "analysts."

8. And they tend to have sound malfunctions and video problems
whenever there is a positive story about Kerry or negative story about Bush, but never the other way around.

Sounds :tinfoilhat: I know, but pay attention and you'll see what I mean.

7. CNN showed its true colors during the convention.
Edited on Fri Aug-20-04 03:19 AM by Borgnine
Sure, we all could see the traces of bias these last few years, but the DNC is when they pulled the mask off and revealed themselves for what they really were.

Fox News, bastards that they are, are almost a cartoon version of the news anymore. They've been 'outed,' you might say. CNN is the biggest enemy out of the cable whores at this point.
