Bill Schneider Should Resign

[Jon8503]

by Chris Bowers

When I read the following a few hours ago over at Atrios, I was outraged:
Schneider

Well I can guarantee that they don't like George Bush. Do they think there's a difference? I think Osama bin laden - the al qaeda network - who I'm certain follow american politics. Look at the messages coming out on their tapes, they seem to follow politics very closely. They would very much like to defeat President Bush. But the question is could they pull of the same trick they could pull off in Spain? What Dennis Hastert says is they'd better not try that, it won't work here. My guess is he's right about that."

CNN, just now.
Over at Dailykos, Armando argues that Terry Mac should demand that Schneider resign for making such a slanderous statement against Kerry. I concur. Schneider talks of Al-Qaeda attempting to influence the election through terror because supposedly they like Kerry, while simultaneously attempting to influence the election himself through terror because he obviously likes Bush. Worse still, he does so under the guise of being a "non-partisan," and presenting "analysis" that has absolutely no basis in reality.

Bill Schneider should be fired by CNN, if he does not resign. Gallup and CNN's shame has only deepened.

1. He should be fired because he is PNAC and

is also with AEI. How much more biased neo-con can a person be?

3. jesus....he's NOT PNAC....it's another guy

he is more influential than the other schneider, though

AND, the dems SHOULD make a big deal out of the quotes from various sites in which the AlQaedas there say that they WANT Bush to win, that Kerry will KILL THEM IN THEIR BEDS!!!!

4. He is part of the AEI though. He's a senior fellow I believe.

6. It will never happen.

Are you kidding? CNN has a traitor sitting on Crossfire, spewing his WH crap on a daily basis. NOVAK! Schneider ain't going anywhere. He's doing his job. He works for the WH. CNN is a state owned network. They will fire NO ONE for supporting the chimp. NO ONE.

7. CNN is infotainment going after the right-wing Fox audience

They aren't going to get rid of Bill Schneider nor are they going to properly label his credentials and origin every time they air his *opinion*. Their ratings will continue to plummet. And WE can choose not to watch this faux news, to let CNN's advertisers know that we are not watching, and point out to others that it is NOT a reputatable news channel.
