Imagine that! The White House fighting back. It’s about time they took the media to task for their lies and distortions but don’t expect any response from the media.

Too damned little, too friggin’ late. Why in the wide, wide world of sports would Dubya or any other administration official agree to sit with these scumbags in the first place? Still grasping those hopes of a “new tone”, I suppose.

GE is the largest manufacturing company.

Granted the other companies are lerger by different metrics.

(I got to use the word metrics)

it was an operation w/Protest Warrior in July of ‘04 as the election was heating up...we hit a home run that day so much so that Rush kept mentioning us during his broadcast that afternoon...

Too bad they waited until all their ground troops are dead or have walked off the battlefield in disgust.

Bump. Skulking dogs snarling after they got their ass kicked, retreating into the night.

NBC ought to write “Kiss My Grits” on the Bushies’ letter and return it to them.

NBC's lucky that Truman isn't president.

Full Wartime Censorship Placed on Korean News 1/9/51 Waterloo Daily Courier, front page | January 9, 1951 | UP

THURSDAY, JANUARY 11, 2007
U. S. Eighth Army headquarters, Korea. –(UP) –

The US.Eighth Army imposed full wartime censorship on news coverage of the Korean War ...

Veteran war correspondents agreed the regulations were the most inclusive they had ever received from any army headquarters.

Whenever I heard ‘unpopular President’ I think they’re still in high school.

My best and true story about NBC happened a few years ago.

When the NBC affliate in Gay Frisco channel 4 tried to extort Dish, the CEO of DISH dropped channel 4 from its lineup in minutes.

We knew nothing about this as we never watched 4/NBC. Our son came home to visit and tried to watch channel 4 and got a reminder that that Dish and cancelled their services months ago.

He laughed at us.

Then, he tried to watch CNN and it was blocked since day one when the Dish installer set up the system as per my request with all CNN stations blocked. He still jokes about the lack of the NBC station and no one noticing that it was gone.

I hope McCain mounts at least some sort of response when they start piling on him.

Is it still NBC News's carefully deliberated opinion that Iraq is in the midst of a civil war? If not, will the network publicly declare that the civil war has ended, or that it was wrong to declare it in the first place?

Being a New Socialist means never having to say you're sorry.

With all the business they’re doing with Iran is there really any question about it?

When multiple warring factions that will eventually turn around and fight you at some time in the future, arm both sides - stand back and watch. Stability in cultures is established when both sides have tired of fighting and just want peace.

Nice. Where the heck has Ed Gillespie been for the last 7.5 years? He should have been coaching the President before every single press conference...

that reassures your broadcast network’s viewers that blatantly partisan talk show hosts like Christopher Matthews and Keith Olbermann at MSNBC don’t hold editorial sway over the NBC network news division.”

It's a good letter, but Matthews and Oberman are no different than the smacked asses who write the teleprompter lines for the news readers. They're all the same ilk of liberal Democrat. Anyway, NBC News is dying (honestly, does anybody here watch that twaddle? Personally, I haven't watched a network news program in at least a decade) so I think I would refrain from giving them any publicity.
