CBS News: No Lie Is Too Big, No Story Is Too Phony!

Because this time, CBS would have achieved the goals of their agenda
before the truth came out to discredit them.

They apparently don't care any more about even maintaining the appearance
of truth, accuracy or impartiality.

NBC News reported Monday night that those 380 tons of missing explosives were
already gone when U.S. troops arrived at the Al-Qaqaa weapons installation
in April 2003 - one day after Saddam's government was toppled.
New York Times 18 MONTHS LATE, CBS was saving it for election eve ambush!

Agreed. Lying to fabricate wars has never been in the public interest.
"Imminent threat"...that was a lie. "The most lethal weaopons ever devised
by mankind"...total nose-stretcher. "Mission Accomplished"...good god,
propaganda doesn't get any bigger!!

I really think after Bush wins again the FCC pulls there license. Lying is not in the
public interest.


That's a *great* idea!


Yeah, that and the January Surprise where he has John Fraud Kerry arrested for war crimes.

I'd volunteer for the firing squad.

True. Dan Rather has it out for Bush. So what? What's your problem

He is not entitled to use the CBS network as a news reporter to express
his personal opinions. He is supposed to report the news, not make it up.

Why would you expect him, or any of the networks to change their tune now?
They were all on board whipped up with war hysteria and spreading White
House lies like manure over the American heartland. None asked serious
questions. They were all White House stenographers before the war.

If he identifies it as commentary, I'll agree - but when he presents
information with a specific slant to promote his objectives, it
shouldn't be called news.

I think you've given a fair and balanced answer. You're right.

So those 380 tons of missing explosives were moved by Saddam before all
those expert inspectors noticed, eh?

No wonder twelve years of inspections found NOTHING.

SC,

I would not mind if Dan Rather took a moment to 'express' his
"Personal Opinion" or to make an "Editorial Statement" as long
as he makes it CLEAR that is what he is doing.

But... too often Dan Rather and others of the Liberal Media 'ELITE'
EXPRESS their "Personal Opinions" and make "Editorial Statements"
under the guise of a 'news item or story'.

Just before the story about Al Qaqaa broke, the Bush-Cheney campaign
was frantically trying to debunk John Kerry's statement that Mr. Bush
let Osama bin Laden get away when he was cornered at Tora Bora. That
getaway, Mr. Kerry asserts, was possible because the administration
"outsourced" the job of closing off escape routes to local Afghan
warlords.


Clinton, the incompetent but sexually active, let Osama get away two
times. Had two chances to get him, but Clinton was too busy doing
strange things with cigars with Monica in the back office to be bothered
with Osama. Thanks to Clinton's incompetence and appeasement, Osama
rewarded us with 9/11.
