Howard Kurtz demonstrates that he's an ass. Arianna spits on him.
Edited on Mon Aug-22-05 11:45 AM by Cyrano
Bradblog has a short exchange between Arianna Huffington and Howard Kurtz on CNN yesterday.

http://www.bradblog.com

It's a very short read, but it vividly demonstrates the MSM bias of CNN. And it also demonstrates how easy it was for Arianna to kick him in the teeth and make a fool of him on national TV.

The problem is, it won't make any difference. Too many morons who watch this stuff probably think she's just some "uppity foreigner bitch" with an accent.

8. That's disgusting and inappropriate. However, she really does look
smokin' hot.

I guess that what we have in common is what too many men fear. A beautiful woman with a brain.

10. Digress all you want...
...do you realize she just turned 55 last month? She looks 20 years younger, and yeah, she is definitely "smokin'." I love the accent, too.

2. "If 10 percent of the media's scrutiny of Cindy Sheehan was put on life

and death decision makers". I'm paraphrasing. Kurtz cuts her off because she was making good sense.

5. Yes, the pig reporter he had on from Crawford
said that the Camp Casey crowd was "PETA people and hippies" and Howie the Whore lapped it up

This POS is as disgusting as they come - and don't forget his wife worked for AHRNOLDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD - facists pigs

When the day of atonement comes, these bastards must share the cells of the war criminals- they are every bit as guilty, every bit!

6. Every bit. And that day is coming soon.
Of course, they think calling people PETA people and hippies is an insult, but that's another topic.

9. Kurtz the media analyst evidently doesn't see the same "news" we do.
KURTZ: Hold on, hold on.

You're saying that the journalists in this country are giving far more scrutiny to Cindy Sheehan than to the vice president of the United States and the secretary of state, really?
----------------------

Uh, yeah. Which is why the NYT and his own WaPo issued belated mea culpas on their credulous "coverage" of the Bushies propaganda campaign selling the war to the American public. Remember that Howie? Remember how Walter Pincus of the WaPo had problems getting his stories in print because they called into question the bilge the WH and your newspaper was shoveling out in buckets to the public? Why even Woodward had to go to bat for him just to get a story published? WaPo wasn't interested in it because it wasn't stenography from the WH. Remember that Howie? And still it goes on...

But you know how the media game works Howie. Just ask your wife if you need a refresher http://www.fourthestatestrategies.com/html/biography.html
