This guy at work thinks CNN is to the far left!

[ikojo]

He and I were having a discussion this morning and he said, "I'll bet you watch Communist Network News" to which I replied, "no, I can't stand CONSERVATIVE Network News." He then laughed and said he couldn't believe I thought they were conservative. He used Judy Woodruff as an example. Since I don't have cable and don't see her everyday, what is she like? I used the example of Wolf Bushtler as proof that they are shills for the administration.

1. Well what about Candy Crowley showing the Democratic candidates

on playing cards, a la the ones used to track down Iraqi leaders?

[WoodrowFan]

2. I've heard that before

It's a leftover from when Ted Turner owned it.

[Mojambo]

3. He used Judy Woodruff as an example???

He clearly hasn't watched for any extended amount of time.

Or he's retarded.

4. Geeze, just ask him to recall

which item critical of the rush to war pissed him off the most.

5. My Workplace Coven Of Freepizoids Call It The 'Clinton News Network'

One day I came in, and freeper 1 was saying to freeper 2 "yea, CNN is totally biased, they were asking their guests what went wrong with the Gore campaign".

If CNN's strategy is to move to the right to pick up market share, they are doomed (along with NPR or any other media outlet that tries this strategy).

PS: God I would love to work somewhere without freepers. At least with free range freepers you can just walk away, but at work you're trapped.

6. Hahahahahahahaha!

Tell him Ted Turner sold CNN YEARS ago.

You should have seen Judy Woodruff BEAMING with pride on election night 2002. She was BESIDE herself with glee.

She is as Republican as the day is long. Your co-worker is SADLY mistaken.

7. MSNBC should replace Joe Scarborough with a liberal.

Then almost all cable news viewers would tune to Fox or MSNBC, since there is so much dissatisfaction with CNN these days.

8. comebacks, anyone?

"Seriously, how far up your ass do you have to stick your head to see the world like that?"

"Wow, that's some powerful kool-aid you've been drinking. Might want to stay away from heavy machinery for a while."

"Well, I've tried to watch Fox, but it's not nearly as good as it was in the original German."

<girly voice>"Waaaah! CNN was mean to me! Mommmmyy! Turn on Fox! Waahhh!"</>

9. I tell the right wingers that FAUX is the ONLY source for the truth

and that ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, CBC, CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, and the BBC are all just a bunch of liars. If you want the truth you have to tune in to FOX. (I say it all with a straight face too)
