My Friend From Waco Says That CNN Is Distorting the Rallies

[K8-EEE]

She said that Crawford is absolutely bursting with people, bumper to bumper, and that Camp Casey II is jammed, when she got home from there she turned on the "news" to see an OLD picture of Camp Casey I as representing today?? And empahasising how "thousands were EXPECTED to show up to support President Bush."

She said she found the distortion "chilling." Thank goodness for the bloggers!! We will have photo & video evidence of what is really going on down there.

1. If this is the case, we should flood CNN

with angry letters...right away. Especially if we know their coverage is a scam.

2. Send them pictures. nt

3. Who's really shocked about that?

They underreported the #'s of anti war protesters back before the war started, they certainly aren't going to tell truth now when chimpy's disapproval #'s are sinking.

[K8-EEE]

5. That's True....The Pre-War Anti War Protests Were HUGE

But all the did was interview generals. I remember the fleeting attention paid to the skeptics of the war, God, we need to bring back equal time like it was in the 70s. This media is so corrupt.

14. Damn "focus groups"!

:sarcasm:

[tlsmith1963]

25. I Agree With That!

And wasn't it Reagan who took away "equal time"? Ironic, since it is always the conservatives yelling about the "liberal" media. Well, maybe if their guy Reagan hadn't screwed things up, they could have had their say, too!

8. Exactly.

9. the same thing happened during Vietnam

I was in the November 1968 March on Washington, and the number of people obviously there was far higher than what was reported by the media. I never got to get as far as Pennsylvania Avenue, there was too big a crowd on the mall trying to get to the beginning of Pennsylvania Ave.

4. media matters should be alerted. eom

[BlueJac]

6. Same old song and dance

When pro-people at camp casey were saying this is bush country, what the hell are the talking about, this is OUR COUNTRY!

17. It's easy for me to see

that the folks who support Cindy's Sheehan's Anti-War Protest out number the Bush supporters by at least 4 to 1!! But CNN won't report it that way. :(

[glitch]

13. This is something everyone who goes to an actual event realizes

when they then see how that event is portrayed on the "news".

And then they stop believing what they see on the "news".

Reality ROCKS.

[K8-EEE]

15. I Wonder If The Freepers Who Attend This Will Stop

...believe thing "news?" They are angry at Fox for ignoring the huge GWB rally at Crawford, well, maybe they are ignoring it because they are so outnumbered and they just don't want to show that.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

16. I just saw a CNN brief, and it looks like there only a few people out for

Cindy. They showed people lining the road, but not the crowds on the property. This really sucks.

[K8-EEE]

18. Yeah That's Exactly What Surprised My Friend WHO WAS THERE

She said there were TONS OF PEOPLE AT CAMP CASEY II including Joan Baez who is still there, and BUSLOADS KEEP ARRIVING... then she turned on CNN and didn't see ANY of what SHE JUST CAME BACK FROM.

Look how biased (and hidden!) the article is at foxnews.com!! They talk about "3,000 EXPECTED for Bush" "that WOULD BE the largest counterprotest..." Why don't they show us WHAT IS HAPPENING instead of what is EXPECTED to happen and what WOULD happen if the EXPECTED happens....WHAT BULLSHIT!

[Imagevision]

19. Cindy must be causing some serious dameage when they have to

fabricate the news. Bush must be in serious trouble.

CNN/FOX they're almost the same, what a way for CNN to compete against FOX because FOX has higher numbers.

23. Remember When Bush Hosted That Little Press BBQ?

I guess he is getting paid off, it's all hurricane coverage, they are ignoring the hurricane in Bush's front yard!

[Scout1071]

28. Ding, ding, ding. He had a little "talk" with the media and let them

know he wasn't happy with all this Cindy coverage.

20. Live Blogging at Camp Casey

It might help answer some of your questions.

21. Deluded Freepers Using The "Some Say" Method Of Denial...

LOL! This guy says he "hears" that there are 3,000 for Bush and A HUNDRED for Cindy??????? HELLLOOOOO?????? Photos please Mr. Freeper...

22. FR: "Saw very little of it on FOXNews... "

and what little I saw made no mention of numbers..." Then he says Faux "let them down."

DUHHH!!! I wonder why they didn't show you the pix, Freeptard!!

[Wheezy]

24. The reporters' bellies

are still pleasantly full from the bbq bush had for them. Can't bite the hand that feeds them, now can they? *sarcasm*

[Generic Other]

26. Good We ARE the media on this one DUers!

:woohoo:

[jpak]

27. Cindy should call them on it

She should walk right up to the CNN crew and set them straight LIVE on national TV.

[Catherine Vincent]

29. Good!

I can't wait to see the photos. CNN does a live video feed from there but they don't pan out very much. Purposely I suppose.
