No More Good Morning America, Thanks Charlie Gibson..
I guess while many DU'ers were watching Katie Couric and her Michael Moore interview, I was watching Good Morning America. I happened to catch the interview with Nicolas Berg's father, conducted by increasing whorish Charlie Gibson. The interview was going well until Gibson asked Mr. Berg some question,(can't remember now) but Mr. Berg essentially started questioning why his son had been held by the US government, prior to his slaying. At that point, Gibson abruptly ended the interview. You could see the look of pure disgust on Mr. Berg's face that the interview was over.
Hey, America, ain't that just great. This man get slaughtered by someone (tin foil hat currently on), used for Bush propaganda on the War on Terra, and now summarily dropped due to the apparent inaccuracies of his murder. On to the next beheading.
I can't even turn the TV on anymore. The whoring of corporate media for BFEE is sickening.

3. I know what you mean.
I don't consider myself naive about the media at all, but his recent behavior has really shocked me. I used to like him quite a bit.

What's up Charlie? Sell your soul down the river or what?

4. And isn't it curious now with the Johnson beheading there are ...
so many discrepancies. First the Saudis say they saw Johnson's body being dumped by the killers and claim to have had a shootout with them. Now they can't find the body?
The corporate media should be all over the story, but they seem content to sit on their hands and wait for the administration to spoon feed them. I can remember when the whores would go 24/7 at even the hint of wrong doing by a democrat.

5. Charlie is a Mean NeoCon Machine


I saw his take on the Bush photos at the Press Club dinner. He thought GW was soooo funny! He didn't see anything srong with GW's remarks and kept saying so again and again.

He is a Neo Neo.

6. CPN - Corporate Propaganda Networks
An appropriate example....

You can always tell the propaganda facilitators or their propaganda directors in the 'booth' who are not quick on their feet - they end the show or find some breaking non-news.

I know that all guests are given rules for the interview - I wonder if it includes a rule that they will end the show if you don't say what the WH and the cabal wants you to say. (O'Reilly, however, has permission from Murdoch to say 'shut-up. Shut-Up. SHUT-UP' in increasingly loud screams.

Did we regress to the USSR?
