and left a message on both...basically i said i was a normal viewer of the networks and demanded equal time for john kerry vis a vis bush pretend policy speech and i reminded them this is not the first time that they've been duped.
He didn't quite get equal time--he got about 5 minutes less than the president and they cut away from him twice (they said--oh--that is just his opening remarks--we will come back after a commercial).
Still--it was pretty close to equal time--probably not bad enough for me to complain about (because there are so many worse things to complain about).
Where I am, CNN did not show either speech--so that was equal--no one got air time. The stations that showed Bush all showed the Kerry rebuttal. I flipped around quick to see it.
9. And Shrub pulled this same shit a couple of weeks ago remember-
claimed he was going to deliver a "major policy speech" but it turned out to be just his standard stump speech. So why were they so fucking stupid to cover it LIVE again today? And what prevents Kerry from announcing that he's going to air a major policy speech and pulling the same crap? Oh, that's right. . . they'd never let us on the air again if we pulled that kind of shit. Liberal media my ass! Fuck 'em all.
