CNN..... "He took a question from Huffington Post a fringe news group"
which was unusual" Anderson Cooper said that with his panel I wonder if he has Politico on?

10. I Hope Media Matters and Youtube caught that
I'm sure Huffington Post did, when Politico gets Official sanction from all the networks.

8. The sound of corporate media pissing their pants
The day the powers that be begin to treat the blogosphere with the same importance as the MSM is a day that all the media whores dread. The more they see it happening the more scared they will get.

11. Unusual? Don't think so.
Not in view of the role the Internet played in Obama's victory. If anything, this press conference has put the media on notice: Obama doesn't have to pass any new laws to get fairness and balance--all he has to do is level the playing field. :headbang:rocktivity

35. Why you won't see Limbaugh
Because Limbaugh has said he is more an infomercial for the powered elites and entertainer than reality-based political mind. Schultz appearance is meant to piss Limpwad off.

37. There is no way Limbaugh would show himself at a press conference
He only works in the dark, behind peoples' backs. Chicky chicky chicky...

13. Isn't the HP like the most popular Left website?
Correct me if I am wrong, and they also have a few conservative bloggers too. The president can take questions (or not take questions) from whoever he damn well wants to. Because he's the president.

28. Well, I'm listening to Rachel now
Because only the CNN Feed was the clearest during the press conference. Rachel has Sen. Boxer coming up next on her show so I switched channels..

25. CNN is boring and Wolf Blitzer doesn't ask followup questions
I quit watching CNN a long time ago because Wolf Blitzer would ask a question and when he got evaded or got a stupid answer, he never followed up. CNN's only redeeming feature these days is Jack Cafferty.

38. I believe that President Obama believes "Cable Chatter Channels" to be on the fringe,
and so do I. That's what happens to new outlets that make shit up.

Is he even a real journalist? Everyone reads Huffpo. Democratic politicians of all stripes write Op-eds for HuffPo. He needs to get real. I've never heard him say anything of substance ever. He's a total airhead.
