And Snow attempted to downplay somewhat the protesters who had assembled over the weekend in Washington, marching toward the Pentagon to express their opposition to the war.

"People are free to protest,'' said the former TV news commentator, turning to TV news-camera tech news talk: "I don't think we saw any pullback shots of giant protests.''

1. Snow's father should have had his own pullback shot

What a waste of natural resources that man is.

4. When the bush administration chose this guy

that told real Americans what kind of piece of crap he was.

5. Maybe he's just relapsing the Hussein statue facade....

...lot of pullback shot denial there, too, if I recall.

6. Those kind of shots are carefully avoided by the MSM

That's why you don't see them.

[Robbien]

7. You never see any pullback shots of giant protests

That goes against the mainstream press code.

8. Next time...

everyone should swing by Tony's house to say hi. :-)

what a dick

9. Just a thought....

...but maybe his office should be flooded with protest pictures by fax? Anyone have a fax number?

10. You didn't see alot of "pullback shots" of the giant Iraq invasion protests, either, Tony.

That's not because there were only 20 people out there and the liberal media wanted to make everyone think there were more. It was because there were ALOT of people out there and the CORPORATE media didn't want to show it.

11. "there was n-n-no p-pp-protest"

[soothsayer]

12. they ignored the millions and millions of protesters around the world

4 years ago, so why do we think they would be moved by any amount of us great unwashed?

[fed-up]

13. he didn't see pullback of the toppling of Saddam statue either nt

[Swede]

14. Like this one?

[gratuitous]

15. Too busy to mosey over to the window, Tony?

Kind of lost us with your "TV news-camera tech news talk" there. (Kee-ripes, is this an example of what Chicago Tribune reporters write without the assistance of an editor?)

16. The right wing rag here in Austin reported that the war supporters

had a "surprising large turn out". but then later down in the article toward the end, it stated that the anti-war protested numbered near 20,000, and the pro-war were in the HUNDREDS.

So hundreds compared to 20K. Hmmm, yeah, looks like those pro war nuts showed us. LOLOLOL.

I hate my local rag. nothing but slanted reporting.
