CNN Live puts "Democrats on the Run" in big caption under a piece by

John King about Dems who might be running for 2000.

Is this some kind of sick joke? It was unmistakeably offensive... Anyone else catch it?

Should be Repugs on the RUN! sheesh..

1. Yesterday they did a Big Story about Harold Ickes

Edited on Fri Mar-10-06 04:28 PM by BlueManDude

and some voter list project he was spearheading. All the old canards, Hillary, Bill, intraparty shenanigans etc etc.

It was a minor story for political junkies not headline news.

2. "On The Run" as opposed to "In The Race" or "In The Running"?

Abysmal editorialization! You know they're infected with political Herpes when these blisters of fascism appear.

3. Exactly....that's why I posted it. It was very misleading if you were

walking by or turned it on and didn't know what it was about enough to stay with the piece. It had to be intentional because it was "above the scroll" and in large font. I don't remember seeing anything like that running on top of a piece before...

4. Those Democrats, they're in such disarray

People are losing faith in them and abandoning them in droves.

5. That follows: "Dems Indicted: Clinton, Kerry Targeted"

That was the headline spun on CNN an hour ago for a story about an attack speech that Ken Mehlman made. Classic wishful thinking. Naw, there's no bias.

7. HA! the Fox Wannabees Strike Back. But then it's all about "Business"

as Al Capone, John Gotti and the "Soprano's Series" might say...

It's just "Business" that you are fired, outsourced, downsized and margainalized.

Hey...Hey...Get with the flow...it's "business."

8. Here's a link to another thread on the topic.

The poster captured the CNN screen showing the egregious publication.
