Bye CNN. No: FUCK OFF FINALLY CNN

[matcom]

i'm done. i know i know. you ALL have been telling me FOREVER but now its final

Bill Schneider from London talking about Tony Blair's "Iraq problem" (although he never actually SAID he "LIED") :eyes:

Schneider: Blair has a reelection problem that is even WORSE than "another politician" closer to home...... "(Bush right??? RIGHT???)

Schneider (continued): "The difference between BLAIR "misstating" about the Iraq War and OUR politician is that OUR Politician was lying about a PERSONAL MATTER. Of course, I'm talking about BILL CLINTON"

:puke:

FUCK YOU CNN. I AM OFFICIALLY DONE. DU was RIGHT and I was an IDIOT!!

you are OFF my TV. SUCK MY ASS CNN!

[donheld]

1. Matcom, I'm glad you finally joined us

:toast:

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

2. It's cool.

I'm glad you came around though. BBC only for me!

[Warpy]

9. Catty Kay killed BBC for me

when she was traveling around with the Idiot team and her gushing reports told me she'd been converted to the cult.

She's just another empty headed, bottle blonde bimbo who is mouthing the corporate line, as far as I'm concerned.

I've turned ALL of them off. Life is too short to spend being lied to.

[nini]

3. Good move.

fuck them.. every god damned one of those whores. I am so sick of the biased lying media I could scream. They'll never get another penny from me.

[miss_kitty]

4. And it took you HOW MANY YEARS?

man. at least you finally saw the light

*high five*

[Jack Rabbit]

5. Good for you!! Who needs the Little Fox?

6. We learn something new everyday...

Look on the bright side now everyday you're not being dumb down your provably getting smarter:)

[CottonBear]

7. You're gonna feel so much better now.

The next step is to stop watching MSGOP.

[lies and propaganda]

8. good to see ya dude.

Cnn is way worse in my book that faux because they tried hard to still hang on to that liberal media farce. Fuck em, later Judy, later Wolfie, and all the rest of the netorks share my disdain.

The revoltion will be on the damn internet, thats for sure.

[Tux]

10. Go with Internet news

Google News is unbiased since it's just links to other news sites and tons of variety.

[grytpype]

11. You wont miss it.

I get all my news from the blogs, DU, nytimes.com, washingtonpost.com

Television is for entertainment, not news.

[marmar]

12. De acuerdo

I don't watch CNN anymore, not even for the scrolling sports scores. They have just become pathetic and pacifist, obsessed with runaway brides, LA freeway chases and anything that avoids tackling real issues. We don't have a BBC-type national news gathering organization in the so-called free-est nation on earth. We live in a corporatocrasy.

[frictionlessO]

13. Yayyyy!! Another one sees the light!

Dont worry Matcom it took the last election cycle for me to finally admit the whorish corruption in our cable media outlets. Though I suspected true news was dead as soon as they joined up for the embed process.

Stupid Fuckers are complicit in destroying our country.

[Beetwasher]

14. That's Pretty Fucking Demented, Like Really Fucking Demented

Like holy shit demented.

I haven't watched CNN in I don't even know how long...

[arcane1]

15. gods, I wish I still had cable, so I could cancel it again over that b.s.

:grr:

[Roland99]

16. Cancel cable/satellite completely!

I did and I feel so much better. Although, PBS may soon be gone, too. :(

[Zomby Woof]

17. Welcome aboard!

I have hated Right-wing CNN since Reagan was in office! I have often posted about this. They are just less subtle about their bias these days.

The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions
David Ray Griffin
Description: David Ray Griffin takes a critical look at the official 9/11 Commission Report. Professor Griffin argues that "omissions and distortions" in the report amount to a cover-up by government officials and says that the available evidence suggests that the Bush administration was complicit in the 9/11 attacks.

19. You'll be back

You've been torturing yourself with CNN since I've known you. I think you like it. You'll be back.

:P

[matcom]

21. your an ass

:P

and wasn't it YOU who posted that you weren't POSTING in GD anymore? :D

[Dob Bole]

22. CNN-free since election night 2004...

I've only been to the website a couple of times since then...I read BBC and Yahoo news.

[GOPisEvil]

23. Oh sure...turn off CNN after I leave.

Subject me to that crap, and THEN see the light.

Why isn't CNN reporting the fact that the Iraq war was being discussed with the lapdog in 200 and freakin 2?

I've been done with CNN for years now. My blood pressure thanks me.

[lectrobyte]

24. I gave up on CNN a long time ago. Just don't watch it. They are

stealing your time, and making money from ratings. If it's real news, it'll be on the internet anyway.

[CatWoman]

25. I still can't believe the many, many

"CNN sucks", or "Guess what CNN said" threads.

Fuck CNN.

They are completely worthless.

[Nite Owl]

26. You'll be amazed at how easy

it is not to turn it on again. I thought I would have withdrawal but it wasn't hard at all.

[anarchy1999]

27. Dearest Mat, why don't you tell us how you really feel!

Cheers to you!

Over the course of the last couple of weeks CNN has gotten incredibly bad/ugly/stupid, you name it. It can't be tolerated for more than a minute or two by any healthy, thinking, educated person.

It just makes me cry. CNN used to be so good, so long ago.

[Blue Gardener]

50. I didn't think they could sink lower

Than the Schiavo debacle. They proved me wrong with the 24/7 runaway bride coverage. I just flip right past it now. I get most of my news from DU anyway.

[meegbear]

28. Thank you matcom.

I will never watch them again. :grr:

[blm]

29. matcom, please tell this to Carville, "It's the corporate media, stupid!"

He blames the Democrats for being out of touch with the American people, but, the truth is that they are so in touch with real working Americans that the GOP had to work for the last 2 decades to control the media through their corporate cronies just to control and corrupt the news that the American people heard each day.

GOP control over most of the media and most of the voting machines must be exposed.

CNN is the worst because it built its reputation as being hard news back when Ted Turner controlled it. Now, it is just a Public Relations Dept. for BushInc, owned and controlled by AOL and their Saudi dollars.

[xray s]

46. Carville is the corporate media

He feeds at the same tit as Schneider and Blitzer and the rest of them.

Blecchhh! :puke:

[lady lib]

30. Enjoy the catharsis.

:toast:

[CarlWoodward]

31. Congratulations

on seeing the light about TV "news." Personally, I stick with newspapers , the BBC, NPR, and the Internet (mostly newspaper sites, like NYTimes, WPost, LATimes etc) for my info. No, they're not perfect, but they at least present a diversity of opinion rather than just the pandering to the right that we seen cable news.

[seabeyond]

32. that is outrageous matcom, lol

my mouth just sat there hangin open. lol. all the way back to clinton. bush lied right along with blair. can say blair out loud, and skip over bush. jsut amazing

i went off in oct. i was a news hound for years, every channel, every hour of the day, into late night. have been offf and life is good

this morning husband left on cnn. sat there for a minute listening to runaway bride, and just in laughter. shut it off. confirmation why i turned it off

[TNOE]

33. You're are going to feel soooooo much better now!

Believe me!!! Everything but C-Span is off now and its great!

[DS1]

34. Monica came out after re-election, it doesn't even connect

:eyes:

[WillyT]

35. Hey Mat... At Least They're Good For A Train Wreck...

I mean... just look at our fucking country now!!!

Oh... that's right... they're not covering THAT train wreck.

:nuke:

[WillyT]

38. As An AfterThought... CNN = Chimp News Network

Or maybe Chump News Network... YOU decide!

:shrug:

[DELUSIONAL]

36. I've been CNN free for about 3 years

as well as FOX free.

Screw 'em I don't need their non news anyway.

[catmandu57]

37. Good move, now add npr to the list

Both were the top at one time, now they're just hollow shells of a once great thing. Fuck em both,covering fluff and spreading lies, we'll find our own news thank you.

[harpo]

39. bout time

[Carni]

40. Self deleted-posted my rant twice by accident! EOM

[Carni]

41. Two words--Carol Costello

I would like to clunk that woman and her Repuke editorializing in the AM in the head with a very LARGE 2X4--she and that weather man take every opportunity they can to slam the Democrats and bring up Clinton's *affair* ad nauseum.

[Bethany Rockafella]

42. Unbelievable.

So Schneider will make an effort to say President Clinton lied but didn't make one to say George Bush lied?

Unbelievable.

[0007]

43. Been off CNN for two years now.....

I do check their stupid polls.

[wicket]

44. Alright matcom!!!!

:kick: :kick: :kick:

[xray s]

45. Another convert

Your eyesight will slowly return. It takes awhile after you have stared into the sun for so long.

Fuck CNN indeed!

[realFedUp]

47. It's not even that good a reality show...

spank that oversized hippo.

[d_b]

48. I quit watching all of them after November 2nd.

Welcome to the club.

[stanwyck]

54. Me, too

I used to watch CSPAN's Washington Journal every morning. Without fail. No more. It's one thing to be confronted with an election which shows half of our voters care nothing about our country and our Constitution. It's another thing to listen to their moronic warmongering and American Taliban rants each day. I watch The Daily Show and read the NYT. I cancelled my TIME subscription after the Coulter cover.
Thank heavens for DU.

[Just Me]

49. I still tune in to Lou Dobbs 'cause he speaks my language.

I don't bother with the rest of the invasion of privacy for entertainment and profiteering purposes,...it makes my head hurt.

[David Zephyr]

51. Schneider Supported Bush's War & Unlike Clinton Has Never Been Blown.

It's a universal axiom of truth: Any man who criticizes another man for getting a blow job instead of cheering him on has never had one. Never. Take it to the bank.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

52. Get DishNetwork with FSTV and World Link TV

http://www.freespeech.org/fsitv/fscm2/genx.php?name=home

Tonight, for example, they're airing:

"Bush Family Fortunes: The Best Democracy Money Can Buy"

[newyawker99]

53. Welcome to the growing club of people who have

given up on TV news. You will feel
a lot better without it.


:hi:

[spanone]

57. The Press is DEAD. Journalism is DEAD.

[Gloria]

58. Listen to Radio Netherlands programs....they're SMART and cynical...

if you don't have a shortwave radio, go to www.wrn.org

It's all there....
