Tuned into CBS...(this is from Media Boycotter) and they did WA Not Ohio
Edited on Thu Dec-23-04 06:55 PM by KoKo01
It seemed a spin on CBS (not Dan but that RW Clone they've brought in...what's his name?) but...they went back to Florida trying to make it sound like Rossi "really...really...won) but those Dems just won't give up and keep "recounting and recounting and recounting."

The media love that guy in FLA from 2000 with the guy with the "Big Eye" balding and funny which they've rerun since 2000...and the "tone" of the report was that Christine Gregoire didn't have a right to ask for a recount..

There was NOTHING ABOUT KERRY! CBS...the only network or cable I dared to watch???

1. Its so frustrating...CNN was trying to turn Gregoire into a grinch...for
counting the votes. I already posted this in another thread, but shouldn't the guy trying to stop ballots from being counted be considered the grinch?

As for the Kerry thing...Hell most of this country doesn't even know Al Gore won in 2000. I don't see any reason to believe the media is going to start reporting now. Maybe when the Kerry Camp. files monday, they'll talk about it.

2. It's so bad....I'm starting to wonder if the MSM is on "OUR SIDE?" Keep
it all "low to the ground" so low "one doesn't report" and then JUMP IN when the story is about to BLOW!

As much as I hate the "MSM" for their lock down and support for Bush...I still hope SOME OF THEM...."GET IT!" and know that Gore WAS our President and Kerry Certainly is the one who should be inaugurated!

Such a "skip" of this Kerry news goes beyond Partisan. The Repugs could have had a "field day" laughing at Kerry and calling Dems "Sore Loserman's."

There's something more going on here. Unless I'm willing to believe that we are in a "Totalitarian LockDown" right now...I have to have hope that this story is best..."under the radar" for now...:shrug:

5. Can you imagine the audacity of this? They are smearing Gregoire and
if the CPNs (Corporate Propaganda Networks) get away with this, they will always add the tag of this recount to her name as they are going to smear Martha Stewart. Democrats are now domestic insurgents to them and they are the new fascists to us. What a sorry country. And we know who started this.

7. the arse doing the WA story called recounts "a sign of the times"
one of their field reporters. Recounts are being reduced to "nuisances" by our right wing media.
