OMG, CNN's Kyra Phillips is on the ground reporting from New Orleans

[Be Brave]

Now I'm confident that I'm gonna get the most accurate news. :sarcasm:

[julialnyc]

1. at least it's not Daryn Kagen

it's almost that bad..... but not quite

[NightOwwl]

2. Could be a good thing.

Every reporter who has been on the ground has had an epiphany of sorts.

[OhioChick]

5. You're absolutely right........

I've noticed this myself.

14. Ayuh. Let's hope that will be the case.

Too much time has passed.

3. I refuse to watch her since she had her two meltdowns last week

but I hope this field trip opens her eyes a bit. Maybe she won't continue to act like she works for the White House PR department after a taste of reality.

[wildeyed]

6. I saw her shriek at Pelosi.

What else did she do?

[samdogmom]

16. The day after the Pelosi meltdown, she was still spouting the

White House "blame all of the locals" line. She tried to make this point with every interview she did that day. Basically she was editorializing every time she opened her mouth. She crossed the line from reporter to commentator and I decided I wouldn't help her ratings anymore. I sent an e-mail to CNN and asked that they rein her in or remove her from her reporting job (fat chance, huh?) Anyway, I agree with Nancy Pelosi she should go on the White House payroll. She's a tool for the administration.

[wildeyed]

18. I watched her 'reporting' early in the crisis.

The reporter on the ground was describing the terrible suffering that was occurring in NO and all she could do was ask "what about the LOOTING" over and over. The reporter in NO would say, "yes, but it is survival, these people don't have water or food" then try to talk more about the suffering. And Kyra would go on some more about the LOOTING. That is when I decided she was a hack and completely out of her depth. Totally unable to perceive the real story.

Then later in the week, the Pelosi meltdown. So now I know her reporting is biased, not just ignorant and untalented.

[samdogmom]

21. I wish more people would let CNN know that her type of reporting is passe!

It's been hard for me to stomach main stream news channels since the election, but I give CNN credit. Many of their reporters and anchors have turned a corner in past two weeks. Unfortunately, Krya belongs on Fox. She doesn't fit into the new CNN "hard news" format. I wish more people would write to CNN and ask that she be given the "Brownie" treatment.

[wildeyed]

4. Cannot stand her.

She is way out of her depth. They should send her back to the bush leagues.

[in_cog_ni_to]

7. Is she lickin' Bush's toes yet?

:evilgrin:

[sandnsea]

8. On the ground or in a helicopter??

I thought I saw her flying around in a helicopter. I don't think that'll do the trick for her, she's going to need it up close and personal for it to sink in.

[Canuckistanian]

11. She needs a whiff of reality

Some time in an evac center wouldn't hurt, either.

[OhioChick]

13. Actually.........

They should've sent her there (on the ground) about 2 weeks ago.

[Reciprocity]

22. And from the convention center.

[sui generis]

9. "as you can see, the devastation caused by

democrats in New Orleans is unspeakable! There have been unconfirmed reports that Senator Pelosi has been here on the ground abusing our national guard troops, personally disrespecting the many dead bodies by putting clown wigs on them and taking close-ups, looted a local shoe store, and was caught eating live puppies."

[Pithy Cherub]

10. Kyra Philips: BREAKING NEWS: Cafe Du Monde just reopened...

Beignets for everybody!:woohoo: (The level of her "reporting".)

Note: Kyra used to live in Louisiana.

[Reciprocity]

23. Didn't know that. She must have really hated the people there.

[txindy]

12. She's weeks late and a few tantrums short

She just wants the attention and feedback that Anderson Cooper received from his honest reporting in NO. Not gonna happen, 'Myra'. :rofl:

[Roland99]

19. So, what did she report?

[lse7581011]

20. Gotta Be There!

to support "her man" tonight!
