CNN: Jeff Greenfield RE: F-9/11. Has he seen the light?

[cease_fire]

Jeff Greenfield - Senior Analyst for CNN just finished reviewing F-9/11.

Mods - Forgive me if this doesn't conform to the new late-breaking news thread - I'll try to remain objective.

During his analysis, Jeff Greenfield did not refute, dispute, or otherwise argue ANY single fact presented in Michael Moore's film.

In fact, the current hot button regarding the Saudi get-away flight was briefly discussed, and then dismissed.

Greenfield actually argued both sides of the story.

Like the make-up scenes in the beginning and end of the film. Greenfield suggests that MM is using an artistic device.

I'm actually breathing a sigh of relief. This is not what I expected from CNN.

Still, they're not quite off the hook yet.


Thanks for the indulgence Mods. If you move it to general, I'll totally understand.

they can't lie outright...

3. No don't let them off the hook

believe it, this mouthpiece of American imperialism will only spew imperialist mantra. Take that as a given, and then learn the true point of the story (or outrage). That's how we beat them. They're really insane, and as Michael Moore said, out of touch with Americans (which are in fact liberal, though they need a little convincing).

Always question them. They can't be trusted in the least. The people that work there aren't journalists, they are just good at reading teleprompters and looking pretty. Everytime I hear and see some 24 year old woman on CNN telling me what political conclusions I should make, I just laugh and laugh.,

5. hey, Cease Fire

I caught your F9/11 thread -- I didn't respond to it because I was so damn emotional after seeing the movie.

Your thread was fantastic.

Just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated it.

We're the ones with the sunglasses.

10. Jeff Greenfield is another CNN wisdom spouter that follows the herd.

Once he actually had the audacity to say that Noam Chomsky's views are from Neptune.This little know nothing is not qualified to wash Chomsky's feet and speaks about one of the intellectual giants of our times as though he is Little George Bush. Do not pay any attention to this twit.

13. Greenfield is liberal.

He is also extremely lazy.
