So, how did we come to this?

[CatWoman]

all of a sudden, some in the media has discovered "integrity".

They are outraged over the Harold Ford-loves-white-girls ads.

They are disgusted by Rush's mocking and idiotic critique of the Michael J. Fox ad.

Go back to 2000.

They jeered and cheered any and all ads that mocked Al Gore. Then in 2004, they gave high visibility to the swift boat liars.

Now all of a sudden they have developed a sense of outrage?

Sorry mother fuckers.

This bullshit should have been addressed and snuffed out THEN.

By enabling the lies, smears and bullshit, it only egged the GOP on to more and more outrageousness.

Don't get me wrong; I'm pleased that FINALLY some are speaking up.

Still, two very good, able, capable, intelligent men had to endure the endless ridicule, all the time watching the media laugh at them.

1. As far as I am concerned they aided and abetted the crimes

against America..they pushed Propaganda down America's throat...I hope they are punished financially or even criminaly (not that the latter would ever happen)

[havocmom]

2. They went soft on covering bush since the 2000 campaign

THAT really aided and abetted! Corporate media made damned sure the stage was set for the corporate puppet junta to get close enough to throw the 2000 election into mayhem and allow for the anointment by the SCOTUS.

The corporate media helped destroy America. They did more damage than whoever it was who brought down the WTC.

3. Accountability's coming. - n/t

4. 'cept Paula Zahn

I am still waiting for an apology, on her knees, to the nation and to the families of the 2800 fallen SHE helped send to their deaths. In a September 2002 interview, Scott Ritter was BEGGING her to look at the reports from the weapons inspectors that there were no WMD's. All she could do is sneer at him like he had just farted, "Oooooohhh reallllly Scott, have you been drinking Saddam's koolaid? Do you realllly expect me to believe THAT?"

Hey Paula, why don't you have Scott on your show now? He's on a book tour, be good for ratings, no?
Gutless, cowardly witch. Paula makes Katie Couric look like Helen Thomas.

Too bad nobody was listening.

5. Thank Mr. Olbermann

KO has shown that there IS an audience willing to listen to liberal bias. Also known as: The Truth.

7. I honestly believe they now see what they have CAUSED by not doing

their job. They KNOW they were complicit in getting these warmongers into office and now they are just as afraid as we are at what they see. I may be wrong.

Last week I was telling myself that CNN has turned LEFT because of their excellent coverage of the Dems and their "Broken Government" series. THEN, yesterday, I see Candy Crowley doing a hit piece on the Dems (wench!). They have stopped talking about the Foley scandal and were in wonder of how well the repukes are doing in the polls. OK...maybe they haven't turned left and I'm just being sucked in to believe they have turned over a new leaf? THEN, today, we have all this coverage about how bad Limpballs is, how bad Corker is, how bad the Bush press conference was and now I don't know WHAT TO THINK.:crazy: Sometimes I feel like I live on Mars....and wish I did!

8. Because Bushies polling really low

so they bend with the wind.
