Reliable Sources on CNN?
Anyone ever watch it before?

They did a quick blurb about it a minute ago and it sounds like it might be good.

Hillary Clinton talks about how the media treats the dems. There's also a reporter who is catching flack for a softball interview with bush. They are also going to discuss the DSM and the lack of coverage.

1. Howard Kurtz is a bush apologist
and will try and minimize the real issues surrounding the DSM and recent leaked document. His wife worked for the bush cabal during the campaign and he knows where his 'bread is buttered'.

2. is this the Bizarro world?
and, I'll be interested to hear if they really give it fair & balanced treatment, or will it be the typical Republican host & guest with one Democratic guest, and the two team up to shout down the Democrat?

3. RawStory mentioned!
Katrina VandenHeuvel is on. She's awesome. Howie looks a little stressed. John Fund looks a little bit gay, don't you think?

5. She's good. I'm impressed by her
This show is okay. I probably won't watch it every week, but it is interesting.

I do agree the host is a bit of a schill.

4. Howard thinks the press is tough on Bush*. Out of his fucking mind.

By the way, who is the asshole shilling for Bush*???? Keeps saying that the DSM is three years old...who cares? OK, his name is John Fund. Is he in the media??? Sounds like he's on the Bush* payroll.

8. John Fund is a woman beater? Do you think he's been
'serviced' by Gannon or 'servicing' people in the WH like Gannon?

6. Spinning Like Tops...
Sheesh...Whorie Kurtz takes on the "tough stories" and finds ways to spread manure all over them.

Let's see...so far, he starts with his favorite target, Hillary, plays the fundraiser clip about the corporate media growing a spine...dumps off to a fellow WAPO whore (whose shilling a book...wonder if Whorie's wife is the agent)...saying how Hillary privately "admires the way this regime handles the press"...as though she's actually jealous and proud of how the corporate media does it's job. Shameless.

And of course, there's John Fund...Clinton hater (and should be identified as such)...who just finished doing a mind-meld on the DSM that went totally uncontested by Whorie...who even tried to bypass Katriana Van Den Heuvel by saying "your views on this issue is already known"...she just mentioned the memo, never said anything about what it contained or to refute the obvious lie Fund just let loose. Typical.
