M$M puts Obama on ignore
This morning's network TV:

CBS -- Led off with something about the plane that crash-landed in the Hudson 3 weeks ago. Six minutes in, a 3-second sound bite of Obama...then on to other news.
NBC, to their credit, led with Obama's speech and had several long clips. Then they put on the Newt to analyze it.
ABC -- Ten minutes in...still nothing but Michael Phelps.

:argh:

5. Not to mention...
...while they bash his stimulus plan, they're blathering that he hasn't been able to get his message out. Gee. Why is that, you imbeciles? Put HIM on instead of Newtie, and Lindsay Graham, and all the republicans to whom you have been giving all of your air time, and maybe people will get the message!

14. I've noticed a considerable shift now that the new unemployment numbers are out
Suddenly, MSNBC isn't bashing the stimulus bill as much. They also aired footage of the protest by CA state workers. :(

Right now they're talking about economic advisory board that Obama announced today. So far, the chatter has been positive.

8. I've been watching CSPAN because I knew the MSM would be
total idiots this morning. They have all gotten the memo to report the same BS from different angles. President Obama has pissed them off but screwing with their masters by capping salaries etc. They are disgusting!

15. OMG! MSNBC has a Democrat on for a change!
Sen. Sherrod Brown is on and he's saying McCain and others who oppose this bill are wrong AND they were the ones who got us into this mess in the first place.

:woohoo:

I'm hoping to see other Democrats get air time too. Like I said up thread, I noticed a shift once the latest unemployment numbers were released. Suddenly MSNBC (for now anyway) is taking this seriously.
