Ever notice how even if you're just flipping channels, someone on CNN...
is saying something stupid?

Case in point:

Judy "Skeletor" Woodruff: "John Kerry launched a pre-emptive attack before the RNC."

Oh, thank God it wasn't a pre-emptive attack after the RNC you fucking idiot. Onto Comedy Central, bitch!

6. I've seen ads for that show -- is it worth watching?
Will a Northeasterner "get it" or will it just reinforce my unfortunate stereotypes?

3. Yeah, I can't help but notice.
Sometimes it's just morbid curiousity, and I'll turn to CNN. 9 times out of 10 somebody is saying something outrageous or false. It's sickening that Fox is becoming the more "fair and balanced" of the two.

Wake me up from this bizarro world. I want to go home.

4. Woodruff and Crowley are both ignorant repub whores.
At the Democratic convention Judy was interrupted by some BS news that Bush's National guard service came up with some more paper work(that proved nothing) and the Nancy reagan wannabe woodruff says "thanks for clearing that up". Who the fuck was she talking to?

She is the worst type of so called journalist, she does not have a fucking clue. Go to hell Judy and take that bitch crowley with you.

7. Well Bob Kerrey's on now
and he's not saying anything stupid. Quite the contrary. He's dissing Bob Dole and the SBV's hard, he called them "Swift boat Republicans against Kerry" which IMO is just about right.

10. Ah, but he's not employed by CNN

12. Bill Schneider just caused me to yell
at my TeeVee.

He was saying how the Swift Boat ad took over the campaign.

No "it" didn't asshole; it was the media -- just like you -- who have been chattering about the Swift Boat Liars all over your airwaves.

Shorter Schneider: See the crap I just threw all over the American people?, but it's HIS fault over there. ACK!
