Matt Lauer's telling me all about Obama's 'controversial' speech.

Now Savannah Guthrie is showing the freepers (NOT students or faculty) being dragged off by the cops, illustrating the 'controversy'.

I really hate these bastards.

1. Very obvious how slanted the news is.

And yet the conservatives keep telling us how biased it is toward liberals. Laughable.

[stevedeshazer]

3. Yeah, the very next story was how much hot water Pelosi's in.

Demanding an apology to the CIA, which we all know never tells lies.

6. Both these stories have demonstrated how out of touch the media is.

Two recent polls say the majority students were okay with Obama speaking at Notre Dame.

And another one shows a small majority that thinks the CIA may have lied to Pelosi...from RASMUSSEN no less. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=5676366&mesg_id=5676366

2. This is why I don't watch cable "nooz" anymore.

Nowdays I get my news from the Internet, NPR, and the BBC.

4. GMA gave a pretty fair assessment this morning on how Obama got a warm welcome inside while outside

is where most, not all, the protesters were. There were some students protesting by wearing graduation caps with little baby feet drawn on them.

5. I really really hate them too

I don't like the feeling of hate either. Until bushco came along I never had experienced what hate felt like as I hated nothing. Now the list is quite long I have to admit. All of the hate I feel is because of whats happened these last 8+ years and I want to go back to the old ways of feeling to be honest with you.

7. our media is the true enemy of democracy

after they send their camera crews and pretty talking heads, they have to report on something....it's a money deal


it was a non-event

all the morning shows appear to play to the lowest common denominator

8. I did not think Obama's speech was controversial at all.

He gave a great speech by not dodging the issue. He was Mr. Cool as usual.
