In reply to the discussion: Ann Romney Cancels Interviews After Iowa 'Stop It' Meltdown [View all]Astazia
(262 posts)50. DUTCHASS ANN; Did you not hear me??? + (small emmy spoiler alert at end)
YOU PEOPLE...YOU PEOPLE...GET IN THE RING!
(I read all y'alls Ann Rmoney comments out loud to my family & they're still laughing...)(I even whinnied for Rafalca)
Oh & "Game Change" (fictional ar ar NOT story of the McCain/Palin campaign) won all or most awards they were nominated for.
Lastly, someone needs too tell Scott Pelley that calling out a lie or contradiction is a reporters responsibility!!! Especially on a show like 60 minutes. (Pelley even noted the news-magazine premiered in 1968) The exact date 9/24/68. This now legendary show had both candidates running for POTUS. That was 44 years ago. They were at least then the 1 group of ppl that if you saw them waiting in your office's reception area...YOU KNEW you were gonna have a bad day...a real bad day. What happened to facts? I know Mitt the Twit doesn't care but 60 minutes? Not so much anymore apparently. ROMBOT was allowed to use that non-existant "SUPER MAJORITY in the senate. Someone needs to remind folks in production @ CBS NEWS that their job is to tell the truth & if ANY politician running for office thinks they can come on 60 min & ignore the facts that the reporter will be prepared & able to call out the person who they know is lying (or they should know). If the candidate doesn't like the rules, they used to know not to go on unprepared without facts to back up their own rhetoric. If they don't want to be open to real questions then do not come on 60 min. That was then & this is now. Fuck standards, fuck truth, we need to be fair & balanced. When did CBS stop being the network of Mike & Walter? What happened? Sad as hell...sad as hell. The so called MSM never included the 60 min. I used to know...now it's like all the rest.
RATINGS DRIVEN CONTENT NOT NEWS JEEZ!
FUCK CONTENT...FACTS...HONOR!)
Sad as hell is all I can say. (super majority my ass...will say more when I stop seething & get all facts for my rebuttal in order)
GOOD NEWS: At DU facts DO matter! Thanks to all y'all! What would I do without you guys.
xxoo Taz

I have my doubts that she's been in any kitchen recently. Unless it's been to chew out the servants.

She''s an aggressive "pointer." Watch her interviews and look at her still shots.

"The campaign seems to have gotten a clue and realized that Ann needs to step away from the mike."

I loved Cenk Uygur and TYT playing "Stop It" bytes all over their TYT broadcast on Friday...
