NOW with Bill Moyers is only REAL news
honestly everyone watch NOW on PBS whenever there is a repeat.. I forget when it is... But the show tonight was absolutely brilliant, it almost makes you wonder how different it would be if the other networks did real reporting. He did politics/global warming/national guard being stretched thin stories...

2. Olberman does a fine job on Countdown,
and I still believe Daily Show is all true. Nothing fake about it.

Woof

3. love my man stewart, but as far as non-satire
Brancaccio & Moyers are uber-PRO. There reporting is thorough & slick & smart. Makes you think, makes you feel, and gives each segment real planning and presentation by spending a legitimate amount of time on the subject. AND by inviting on analysts/journalists with real integrity & not these nitwits on other cable-news.

4. I just missed the end
so I'll have to catch it later. Here's the site that was mentioned when he was talking to the young soldier that was in Iraq.

http://optruth.org

I liked what Kevin Phillips and Kathleen Jameson had to say too about the polls and what the attacks really mean. That it's ok to attack if you are telling the truth. Phillips also said that Kerry's is now taking a serious and effective position on Iraq and needs to keep it up.

Great show.

5. Yes. And, of course, it is being reduced to a half hour.
Seems we can't stand a whole hour of reality.

6. NOW is the only show
on tv that could truly be called progressive or "liberal" as it were. and one show out of hundreds does not make a liberal media :D
