CNN'S WOODRUFF LIES ABOUT VIEWS OF DEAN
Edited on Tue Feb-08-05 02:05 PM by jswordy
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0502/07/ip.01.html

TRANSCRIPT: "American (sic) say they are divided in their opinion of Dean with slightly more having an unfavorable view of him."

I read that poll this morning...38 percent unfavorable, 31 percent favorable. Hmmm....let's see, 31 plus 38 is 69....

WHY, THAT MEANS 31 PERCENT HAVE NO OPINION EITHER WAY! ALMOST A THIRD!

Gee...31 plus 31 is 62...OHMYGAWD!...could that mean that only 4 in 10 Americans have an unfavorable view of Dean?

That over 60 PERCENT either view him favorably or have no opinion?

Not in the smarmy world of Shill Woodruff! Write to CNN! I have!

Here is a link to a story with the CNN poll results, as published in the San Francisco Chronicle:

1. Is that another one of those "25% Democrats" CNN polls?
Edited on Tue Feb-08-05 02:07 PM by Stirk
They like to oversample Republicans in their polls. They don't even hide it. CNN is complete shit.

4. Sigh. What happened to her?
I remember looking forward to hearing her voice, and seeing her friendly face on the PBS Newshour.

Ditto--in a different way--Juan Williams, back when he hosted Talk of the Nation on WNYC.

I'll probably have a nightmare tonight where Ira Glass becomes a FuxSnooze stooge...

10. We no longer turn on the set to
Hardball. My husband discovered Amy Goodman and Democracy Now!, and he's hooked. He said she was the only one to show him what happened in the voting in Ohio. She has his undivided attention every evening.

13. Get DishNetwork
2 channels carry Democracy Now! Free Speech TV has her live at 8:00am every day, and several re-broadcasts during the day. Also LINK TV carries her.

15. Beat me to it....
and DishNetwork is cheaper than MediaCom or DiretTv. Plus it has the added bonus of not being owned by Rupert Murdoch.

17. Exactly..........
Moreover, what "The Country" thinks of him is immaterial, it's what WE think of him that matters and I'd venture a guess that most of US approve of him.

9. And most Americans who know him just from TV news...
... would think he's a far-out left-winger, when he's actually a smack-dab centrist.

18. This is almost unbearable.
Why in the world should Democrats care what Judy Woodruff or any other CNN hand puppet thinks about Howard Dean? Do you think that station radiates fairness or something? Hardly! They can`t even report real news. Half the world is blowing up and they`re stuck on Michael Jackson. Do yourself a favor and hit the OFF button. I wouldn`t watch that station if it was the only one on television.
