Tom Brokaw Calls for Jihad Against Infidel Bloggers

Tom Brokaw Calls for Political Jihad Against Infidel Bloggers

NBC's Tom Brokaw has called for "a kind of political jihad" against infidel bloggers and critics of CBS' Dan Rather.

Brokaw said the infidel bloggers had no right to assail Mr. Rather. Brokaw quipped "Dan, like me, is one of the top three prophets of the Main Stream Media. How dare they question Dan's credibility even if the memos were forgeries or Dan tried to sway a Presidential Election".

Brokaw then hinted if the bloggers didn't show more respect and subservience to the Main Stream Media's all knowing news reports, the big three prophets would consider issuing a "political fatwa".

Brokaw's political fatwa would consist of calling the infidels bad names such as "partisan pajama pansies" and "bloggers with big boogers".

Tom Brokaw is a turd. He was single-handedly responsible for the meltdown in Florida in 2000. Why? Because he called the elction in Florida early for Gore, knowing full well that the polls were still open in the panhandle, where tens of thousands of Bush supporters then did not bother to drive themselves to the polls.

I tingle when each night
Tom and Dan and Peter
have the same top stories
the same way of telling them
the same victims and villians.

The little doll needs a new crisis;
they stick a pin in our leg.

The little doll must see it;
they drop another eye in the pot.

The little doll shall tend to us;
(bring to them by) the magic words
(bring to them by) the magic words

The open the belly
scrawl in the guts
and make fire.

Imagine, a blogger presenting falsified documents and then firmly come up with the excuse that the content is nevertheless accurate.
Such scam is perpetrated by these close knit elitists on public airwaves.
How far they have sunk and are willing to continue with is showcased by the Rather, Brokaw, Jennings team.
Only public scrutiny by disregarding them can lift these multicolored parakeets off their perches.

Well, if that's true, then Bush should have no problem winning Florida this year.

I talked to a numbr of top conservative journalists following the debacle of 2000 and asked them about the effect of the early call. One told me that his organization looked for evidence that the early call cost Bush dearly. He said they found no evidence. This was the general consensus of those I spoke with.
Bill Gertz's anecdotal evidence in his book "At any cost" doesn't prove a thing, either. It borders on the sensational if you ask me, and yes, I like Bill Gertz....alot.

Browkaw is just another media elitist without a clue. Guys like this have been marginalized by the internet an simply refuse to face reality.

Go away Brokaw, Rather... we don't need you anymore!

The only people who listen to the news anchors are those who have no computer access.

I don't think Brokaw, Jennings or Rather realize that no one is listening to them any longer. They're just 'background noise' anyway.

By the time the 5 o'clock or 6 o'clock news comes on, most people already know what's going on because they've checked their computer news urls.

The days of Edward R. Morrow are fading away.

One told me that his organization looked for evidence . . .

One? And his methodology was? It would seem me self-evident, as it should to any thinking person, that the call cost Bush at least SOME votes, and even if it was a few hundred rather than tens of thousands, that was a serious matter in such a close election . . . indeed, in any election. Keep in mind that NBC worked in concert with the Clinton-esque "Voter News Service," now defunct, and went by its bogus numbers in making the call. There was considerable discussion at the time of an orchestrated effort to steal Florida. Given what CBS tried this past month, I am not someone who will EVER give the "mainstream" media the benefit of the doubt.

The thing is, as bad as the early call was, it is not certain that Bush lost a net ammount of votes from the early call.

What you have is circumstantial evidence and a few anecdotes from people who felt it was pointless to bother to vote after the early call. Note that the key word is "evidence". It's knida like Starr's replacement for Whitewter who said he didn't have enough evidence on Hillary that would lead to a conviction. He didn't, however, say he didn't think she was guilty.

Indeed, it isn't difficult to imagine that it had an effect, and no one is denying that it probably did. But is there real evidence that it mattered? No. Simply an educated guess.

Yes, it "PROBABLY DID." And thus, Brokaw "PROBABLY DID." And I have every reason to suspect that he did and will continue to say so.

Besides, if "anecdotal evidence" means so much as ten people saying that they did not vote because of it (and I saw at least ten such interviews at the time), then that is sufficient. The "probablity" remains that there were far more than ten. Far more.
