media grades

[IrishBloodEngHeart]

anyone want to hand out any grades for the media:

thus far I would say surprisingly good: Joe Scarborough, Geraldo Rivera, Shephard Smith, Anderson Cooper

good as usual: Keith Olbermann

bad as usual: Chris Mathews, Tucker Carlson, Greta, Hannity, Colmes, Larry King, Wolf blitzer



Worst coverage of all: O'Lielly

1. pretty accurate...

Shepard Smith has actually been the best, I think

2. Aaron Brown's been good

3. Aaron Brown, Carl Quantilla -- all the reporters on the ground --

all networks, they have all been great. The media on the ground has not only reported well, they have made a huge difference. I think they deserve credit for finally getting this show on the road. The misadiminstration can not hide from this.

4. I don't know about Tweety on this one

He's been asking a few, very few mind you, but still a few questions about the response delay timing last time I saw him on MSNBC.

Still, though he is funnier in real life that Darell Hamnon is on SNL

5. Here's what infuriating to me.

Today I read not one, but two articles praising Olbermann's hurricane anchoring. So who does MSNBC have anchoring their extended primetime coverage this weekend? Tucker Carlson, Joe Scarborough, and Rita Cosby. For the record, that's a washed-up political commentator, a washed-up former GOP Congressman, and a Fox News reject. Where the hell is Olbermann? Guess they needed someone to put a positive spin on this for the GOP and they knew that Olbermann wasn't going to play. :puke:

6. the cameraman (cnn? msnbc?) who was given

a lot of time to verbally report on the situation. his passion was spell-binding and heart-breaking. is there any video of this report on the web?

8. good point

I didn't see him cause he's on when I'm at work, but I hear he was great
