| Latin1 | Posted – 2/12/2008 6:39:53 PM | show profile A couple of weeks ago John Gibson made a remark on his Radio show about the death of Heath Ledger and everyone in the MSM went ballistic. It was commented on by MSNBC, and other news outlets. This week Bill Maher says that Rush Limbaugh, who I am not a fan of, should have died of an overdose instead of Heath Ledger and not a peep by the MSM. Chris Matthews called the Republicans the Shites/Sunnis and Ron Paul was Al Queda on the Jay Leno Show, not a peep by the MSM. This is proof that the MSM only is indigant about remarks by those whom they consider not liberal enough for them. Alec Baldwin said that people should be killed. He is given a better job and awards. Danny Glover rants about how awful America is to Hugo Chavez on his state-controlled TV and the MSM gives him a pass and he is rewarded with more jobs in Hollywood. Many people in Hollywood have openly called for the death of Cheny and the MSM looks the other way. This is just more proof that MSM is worse than left-leaning it is liberal facist to the core. |
| jtjt225m | Posted – 2/17/2008 5:13:48 PM | show profile Maher is a comedian, whose show is on a pay network (HBO). The show comes on at like 11 p.m. on a Friday night, how much press is it really going to get? If people don't like what he says, you don't have to watch it. You are able to cancel your subscription to HBO. It is just like satellite radio, you can curse on it, you can't do that on regular radio. Was the comment good, of course not. That is a horrible thing to say about anyone. The problem is free versus pay. If he was on his old show on comedy central or ABC, then he would've had some backlash, when you are on HBO, no one except for about 5% really pays attention. Second, Matthews comments were a comparison, is that really hard to understand? Just because you feel the comparison isn't valid, doesn't mean the MSM should take him out to the woodshed. You make it seem like it was an insult to the Republican party. Aren't the Sunnis and Shites two different races of people in a country that is divided? I think people want the MSM just to go after people for things they don't like, because they are offended. The Republican party is divided according to some, just like over in Iraq. |
