Anti CNN rally

[Supercilious]

Yup it happened. An anti-government anti-CNN rally (Tea Party Rally)



This is our respectable MSM It was not a rally of people fed up with the corruption at all levels of government and the theft of taxpayer money on behalf of fraudulent corporations, but an anti-CNN rally of extremist rightwing kooks :rolleyes:

The MSM talking puppets have no shame left. "Do you realize you are eligible for a $400 tax rebate?"

(Sorry FRED but compared with such BS, Prisonplanet TV is outright respectable and reliable I beleive that soon the reliability of people should be questioned if they give interviews on CNN)

Re: Anti CNN rally

I only have CNN Europe over here and they even had the Daily Show as their program.

It looks to me like CNN adopts to the ruling party, and people like Glenn Back can do their stuff on FOX News now instead of CNN.



Lots of spook activity going on at CNN in my opinion.

CNN AND PSYOPS
By Alexander Cockburn

Military personnel from the Fourth Psychological Operations Group based at Fort Bragg, in North Carolina, have until recently been working in CNN's hq in Atlanta.

CNN is up in arms about our report in the last issue of CounterPunch concerning the findings of the Dutch journalist, Abe de Vries about the presence of US Army personnel at CNN, owned by Time-Warner. We cited an article by de Vries which appeared on February 21 in the reputable Dutch daily newspaper Trouw, originally translated into English and placed on the web by Emperor's Clothes. De Vries reported that a handful of military personnel from the Third Psychological Operations Battalion, part of the airmobile Fourth Psychological Operations Group based at Fort Bragg, in North Carolina, had worked in CNN's hq in Atlanta.

Radar: The secret CIA past of CNN's Anderson Cooper

RAW STORY
Published: Wednesday September 6, 2006


CNN's Anderson Cooper spent summers interning for a career with the Central Intelligence Agency, according to a report at a gossip website.

"Following his sophomore and junior years at Yale—a well-known recruiting ground for the CIA—Cooper spent his summers interning at the agency's monolithic headquarters in Langley, Virginia, in a program for students interested in intelligence work," reports Radar Online.

"His involvement with the agency ended there, and he chose not to pursue a job with the agency after graduation, according to a CNN spokeswoman, who confirmed details of Cooper's CIA involvement to Radar," the article continues.

Re: Anti CNN rally

Whats the problem with this clip? It was a anti tax rally yet the guy was babbling on about things that have nothing to do with anything. Not only that, from my understanding taxes go up for people in the upper income brackets yet you have people no where near these income brackets carrying on as if they were. Stockholm Syndrome is what it seems like to me.

Re: Anti CNN rally

What I see here was a shocking breach of journalistic ethics. The job of a reporter is to report unobjectively not argue on camera with the interviewee.

Whatever you political persuasion this should have been grounds for termination.

Is that true though? Isnt it sensible to ask questions, and question someone when what they are saying makes no sense? Thats just like when you see interviews where Bush or Obama or whoever get taken to task for their words and actions. I would think that shows critical thinking. helps us to see what is really on the minds of the individual in the spot light.

Re: Anti CNN rally

there is a difference between an experienced journalist doing a one on one with a high ranking official. Asking the difficult questions and follow up, digging deep and ferreting out inconsistencies. Maybe even an editorial follow up at the end.

To get in to a pissing contest with an average citizen on camera is, to me, highly unprofessional.

Yeah, it is. That i will admit. She could have handled it better but, I don't think asking the initial question is a problem though.
