ABC News pimps the Swift Boat ads

[Cush]

making Kerry look bad, even talked to Vets at the Vietnam Memorial who slammed Kerry.

CBS was a little bit better, they mentioned the ties to WH, but neither station mentioned the Campaign Flyer being handed out in FLorida

1. I'm thinking this story will blow wide open next week

With the FL campaign distributing Swift flyers. And I'm betting this might be the tip of the iceberg that Kerry/Edwards lawyers have on the Bush campaign links to these cretins.

2. I'm glad that it happened in Florida.

More ammo to paint the "Bush-is-crooked-in-Florida" meme. Excellent.

4. Thumbs down for ABC

[tabasco]

5. WTF is up with ABC??

I thought they were pretty good before the Iraq war started and in the first phase of the war. Now it looks like they are whoring like the rest. They even ended the broadcast tonight with a report on a gun nut fantasy camp. Unreal.
I wish those bastards would talk to me coming out of the Vietnam Memorial. BUSH IS A COWARD !

6. Isn't ABC allied now with CNN (Faux Lite)?

eom

[gratuitous]

8. Yeah, ABC couldn't quite figure out last night

I don't know what they're reporting tonight, but last night, they couldn't quite figure out what might be so wrong about the Swifties. They did play a clip of Kerry challenging Bush's personal war record, and mentioned the shady figures behind the Swifties, but rounded off their report with a shrug and a "we-can't-tell-who-might-be-telling-the-truth."

Someone might want to let the Disney Broadcast Channel know that Fantasyland reporting is no longer in vogue.
