oooooh - 911 Panel just slammed Fox News!

[kysrsoze]

"Occasionally fair and balanced." Yeehaa!

[CrownPrinceBandar]

1. Beat me to it...

"Occasionally Fair and Balanced"

[kysrsoze]

3. This is too friggin' exciting to listen to, isn't it?

[CrownPrinceBandar]

This is great...

its about time this stuff came out.

[LEW]

2. What did Fox do?

I haven't seen anything about this yet.

[Az]

8. They went into back records

and pulled transcript they thought might discredit Clarke. It got shot down.

[CrownPrinceBandar]

12. Fox SOP

I find it amazing that this still flabbergasts folks. Fox is a horrible spin machine. Maybe they can do my laundry.

[tom_paine]

27. Fox is BEYOND a mere "spin machine"

It is Totalitarian Pravda at it's worst.

Oh, they aren't as ham-fisted as Stalin's Pravda, but only thanks to the intervening 60 years of progerss in the arenas of professional lying, propaganda, and pyschomanipulation.

[MSgt213]

4. Oh it was so great!!!

[jpak]

5. Kerrey on FAUX news...

"Occasionally Fair and Balanced"

"this was unfortunate"

Ha ha ha!!!!!!!

[Rockholm]

6. "Occasionally Fair & Balanced!!!!!!"

BaaaaaHaaaaHaaaa!!!!! The crowd in the audience was cheering and applauding! Now, FAUX will throw out dirt on Kerrey. Barbara Winger anyone?

[Rainbowreflect]

23. Did you mean Debra Winger?

What dirt is that, he was single, she was single.

[Rockholm]

28. Yes, Debra Winger!.....My Bad!

[newsguyatl]

7. and i can tell you

everyone in the cnn newsroom broke out into thunderous laughter and applause!

[gWbush is Mabus]

10. cnn is almost just as bad IMO

do any of your co-workers think that cnn is too republican-biased???

[newsguyatl]

13. yes, i'm one of them

and there are plenty here. especially in atlanta.

[gWbush is Mabus]

19. i know YOU are

what about any of the higher ups
supervisors
programmers etc.

[keithyboy]

9. I heard that!!!

If only it could be repeated.

My only problem with Clarke is that he is still pushing for military and violent solutions to problems that are rooted in national, human interest and dignity issues. As much as I like much of what he is saying, I think he, along with everyone else on the Commission, is missing the core issues and they will never be addressed.

[buycitgo]

16. of course

THAT's the real reason "they hate us"

I've been saddened all the way through this that our response is so pax romana

we only know how to lash out in helpless, feckles displays of power

[polmaven]

18. You're so right!

I never realized just how much of a war monger the man is!

On edit...I misread your post. I am surprised by how much of a warmonger BOB KERREY is!!! I have been astonished at his vehemence about it!

[aquart]

20. Well, he's a Republican.

Always was.

[sidwill]

11. YO

Was anybody wachthing Fox? Did they broadcast the comment?

[Raenelle]

17. I turned immediately to Fox when I heard it, and they were broadcasting

live. Yes, it went over their airwaves, unedited, clear as a bell--fair and balanced at last.

[tishaLA]

24. Fox tried to spin it

this won't surprize you. They tried to defend it, including bringing out Jim Angle, the reporter who was at the background briefing, and they said (first SHep Smith, then Cavuto) that it was like Bucky Rice not testifying, but I wasn't sure how that was true. Called Kerrey a "former democrat senator" etc. Said Fox is ALWAYS fair and balanced, etc.

[keithyboy]

14. What was the FOX banner when Clarke slammed them?

Oooohh, this is just too great. Clarke is the BOMB!!! Everytime they think they have to trip him up he comes back with something they don't expect. They don't know what to ask him.

[Sticky]

15. I wish George C. Scott was still alive

....so he could play Richard Clarke in the movie.

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Bonhomme Richard]

25. You're right

Clarke is the Patton of politics.

[Cooley Hurd]

21. Thompson tried to use the same Faux memo...

...as a way to discredit Clarke, but Kerrey shot the legs right out from under him!

[salinen]

22. Now Michael Powell

will ask for a 15 second delay for all news stations!

[imax2268]

26. can't wait for the rebroadcast...!
