The head of CNN must have told Rove: Go F**** yourself, this is unreal

[steve2470]

I cannot believe my eyes and ears. OMG. A real news channel.

[flamingyouth]

5. CNN is showing the reality of NOLA

Describing the airport, the evacuation, the sick, the dying, how much of a disaster this is.

[mattomjoe]

6. Cafferty's tirade

Hoping to see video of it posted soon.

[understandinglife]

9. Yes. And their homepage has not been pulling any punches ...

Peace.

[etherealtruth]

29. IMO they have been showing the reality of the situation ...

They showed death, destruction and despair in contrast to a chimp who again, was too slow to respond to be good to anyone.

CNN has highlighted the human tragedy/crisis of this entire tragedy!

[steve2470]

7. read the other posts about jack cafferty and cnn

jack cafferty just castrated bush. read all about it.

[stop the bleeding]

8. and letting Cafferty off the chain!

[Neecy]

10. they really are good today`

Even Phillips earlier demanded 'the truth' from some military guy, saying there's a huge disconnect between what the federal gov't is saying and what's really happening on the ground in NOLA.

Shocking, coming from a loyal Bushbot...

[steve2470]

11. jack cafferty's crude surgery upon george bush's....privates

[SammyWinstonJack]

12. It isn't looking too good for bush**

[DemExpat]

16. My SO is a Gulf War vet.

He's experiencing PTSD just watching this. :(

[liberalhistorian]

25. I'm glad to hear Cafferty finally got off his

ass and removed his mouth from Bush's ass to actually tell it like it is. What has been truly disturbing to me in all of this is the media's focus on the looting, and the so-called "lawlessness and chaos", instead of the true tragedy unfolding and how desperate the people are. No mention of the fact that most looters are just taking food, water, diapers, etc., because they're desperate and they have NOTHING and no help is anywhere.

Most of the victims are poor and black, and the blatant indifference and racism of the repubs and congress and the media is finally ripping their mask off and letting people see them for what they really are.

[Chalco]

14. he just went off again! great, finally nt

[bee]

15. HOLY SHIT

CNN reading SCATHING anti-bush emails!!! SCATHING!!!!!!!!
:woohoo:

[etherealtruth]

30. I thought the emails ...

... they read yesterday were very hostile toward the chimps "too little, too late" response!

[Im with Rosey]

17. I have been shocked!

Blitzer hasn't cut him off, either. Don't tell me they are finally getting it.

[blm]

21. I believe they fear being found COMPLICIT in another coverup like they did

for 9-11 and Bush's other soaring failures.

They reached their limit and can't keep the truth off the screen....there IS NO SPIN TO BE HAD.

[lildreamer316]

22. WHERE is the video?

Anyone got a transcript? ak.

[mainegreen]

18. links?

links anyone? Is this online anywhere?

[etherealtruth]

31. It's about a change in attitude r/t the Chimp ...

CNN is not accepting the feeble explainations oR actual LIES with out question, right now.

There aren't links to a general tone ...but, check their web page to check out the tone of the reports

[NYC]

19. Please continue reporting details.

I don't have cable. Thanks in advance.

[MsTryska]

20. You know this is is the one thing i've been thinking.....

Finally it seems the media (or at least CNN) has no option but to report the news.


And by God, they're actually doing it.

[Aristus]

23. Wouldn't it be poetic justice of the purest ray serene to have

B*sh's misbegotten pResidency bookended by two disasters? A man-made disaster in New York that gave B*sh a man-made image of a "tough, decisive leader", and a natural disaster that naturally showed him to be a natural disaster all his own.

He'll burn in post-Presidential Historical Hell with Harding, Hoover and Nixon.

[MojoXN]

35. "He'll burn in post-Presidential Historical Hell with Harding, Hoover and

Nixon.

Aristus, are you crazy? Shrub is going to make them look like American heroes when all is said and done. Mark my words.

24. During the "Happy News" Press Conference

by Chertoff and Abu Gonzalez earlier, CNN ran an insert showing chaos, fires, the mess at the Convention Center, and somebody trying to break into a bank--in effect showing America "What they're saying is bullshit."

[etherealtruth]

32. Miles O'Brien practically screamed Bull shit ...

... to that imbecile Barbour this AM. He didn't say the words BS, but he didn't have too.

[Vinca]

27. It's very sad it took something like this to wake up the MSM,

but it's happening. They're as outraged as we are. People are dying and Shrub is playing Mr. Fundraiser. Fuck Mr. Fundraiser, the people need water . . . NOW!!!!!!!!!

[brentspeak]

28. For those of us who don't have TV

and who are being referred to other threads that have even fewer details than this one...

What exactly are people on CNN saying, what are they reporting, etc.?

[DemReadingDU]

33. Anderson Cooper on now

He is quite upset. He is seeing first-hand the devastation and destruction. The people want answers, He wants answers for the people too. So many people are questioning how our government could let our country get into this situation.

[Barack_America]

34. Why shouldn't they? This administration is finished.

Zero credibility left. Rove can't spin this one.
