Will NBC go down with Obozo’s Titanic?

May it be so.

Brian Williams led with the F&F contempt charge. He managed to get in the talking point “witch hunt” quote from some Libtard but actually did a better job than ABC and SeeBS.

Broadcast licenses are for “public convenience” The licensee must show that they serve the public. These Alphabet networks are not doing that because of their bias. Their license to broadcast should be rescinded.

That is the BS liberals try. The MSM are dying of their own accord. No need to try using government to silence them.

Hannity had Michelle Malking and that left wing lunatic Tamara Holder on his show, Listen to the spin she is trying to do about the scandal. It starts at the 0:4:04 timeline

Eric Holder obstructing Justice

Ya, well I can see through all that with them. We also have ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corp). which does a lot of world news. It’s nice to be able to watch TV news without so much editorial filtering like in the US.

What is fast and furious?

P.S. The only TV news I get is NBC Nightly News.

Barack Obama is proving that his radical ideology and distaste for the constitution is a detriment to the nation and the future of our society.

One has to ask why journalists as a whole support him and want him to have four more years to implement his destructive ideals.

Fast & Furious was a program under Obama which allowed 1700 - 2000 guns to walk across the border. They did not track these guns and did not collaborate with the Mexican Gov't unlike a similar program under Bush.

The Bush program (Wide Receiver) tracked the guns carefully along with Mexican officials to see where the guns would end up to try to snag the drug cartels.

Obama & his people, however, did their program under the radar while suspiciously talking about a "river of iron" flowing from the US to Mexico. The suspicion is that they were eager to see their guns cause damage so they could prosecute the gun lobby here in the US for causing violence down in Mexico through gun sales. Problem is, Obama's guns got caught killing hundreds down in Mexico along with an American border official so now Obama & Co. are trying to keep Fast & Furious operation under wraps.

They did it to frame the gun lobby, but got caught causing violence themselves. Obama's executive privilege claim today shows that he was definitely involved.

The idea sounds like a stupid idea under both presidents. They should have just brought all the troops home from Afghanistan and placed them on our border with Mexico. What would be wrong with that?

What is all this nonsense of using guns as bait? Don't these presidents just have the guts to solve the problem? Why the pussy footing around? You mean to tell me we don't have the ability to protect our own borders? If we can't even do that, what the heck are we doing with our troops in Afghanistan?

This is really the best evidence that there is something very rotten in Denmark with this scandal: the media doesn’t want to talk about it. They get all their talking points direct from Organizing For America, so if they knew there was nothing there, and it would blow up in Republicans’ faces, they would have been covering it and criticizing us all along.

“The ABC morning actually hasn’t been much better than its NBC counterpart.”
Listened to the Fox radio report. Indistinguishable from the other alphabets.
Fair and balanced my a$$.
