If it is big enough someone will be forced to cover it.

in the larger scheme of things. She may not be reporting on CNN, but in fact NOBODY on any of the networks covered the July 4 tea parties, even though some of them drew larger crowds than the tax day events.

Fox News barely mentioned their existence, so the Alphabets didn’t even bother to send stringers. It only took them one try to figure out that if they didn’t cover them, they might as well be happening on the moon.

His one on one lovefeast with BO last year was that final straw in my tolurating the wifes choice in news, now its Fox or whatever is on TLC, I simply will not watch that station, in fact I complained about it being on in the waiting room at the hospital today, which went over like a brick through the front window I can tell you.

… it was because her bias was so obvious that she blew CNN’s cover as an objective news network for all the dimwits who need obvious rank bias to see it.

the people’s fury will destroy all these socialist networks until only Fox News remains. This is just the first step.

with a baby in his arms. Good riddance to bad rubbish. She has a pocket watch for a heart, and tofu for brains!

which makes CNN look conservative by comparison.

I think it’s likely that Roesgen’s performance in the tea party report was the reason for her dismissal, but not because management thought her bias was excessive even by CNN standards. After all, Anderson Cooper’s smirking about teabaggers sure didn’t pose any threat to his position as airhead anchor.

A more likely cause for Roesgen’s fall from favor was that she allowed herself to get flustered in the encounter, making herself look stupid. If she had done her job “right”, making the protesters look like the stupid ones, she would probably still have her CNN job (and maybe a raise).

Not that I was “watching” CBS News. The TV was on and I happened to be in the same room.

I fired CBS as a dispenser of news 5 years ago. Rathergate was the last straw.
