[quote name='#22' post='426317' date='Jan 13 2007, 03:48 AM']Olberman has actually gotten pretty pretentious. He had some good points last year, but he is trying too hard to be Murrow these days.[/quote]
why? the man has a conscience, which is more than can be said for most in the media these days, unfortunately. and thank goodness he dares to put it to good use. it sure does stand in contrast to what others seem to consider news/comment.

[b]Is there any other issue where someone should be bias ???

We are talking about the sacrificial offering of young Americans for corporate profit ....

all issues don't have two equal and opposing rational sides to them ....

if we were watching a discussion during slavery in the US .... would you have expected a fair and balanced view and why Slaves also enjoyed their time shackled in the barn ??? :rolleyes: [/b]

What I meant is that I'm tired of the popularity of these editorializng schmoes on every major news network (Olbermann, O'Reilly, Tucker Carlson and his bowtie, etc) that simply trot their biases out on stage for viewers to either agree or disagree with.
Anymore, I want news reported simply and as factually as possible, with no insertion of bias).

Keith is not objective – listen to commentators like Tom Brokaw and Tim Russert who, while they may agree with the need to reduce troops or may agree with some other approach, they provide an unemotional, rationale position unlike Keith who uses superlatives and “facts” not based on any fact but a compilation of rumors, innuendo and guesses.


I 'm tired of wasting my time listening to or reading extremists on either side of an issue. I’ve got too many other things to do with my time. I do enjoy listening to and reading educated folks who provide rationale, unemotional discussions on issues and don’t try to sway me but try to educate me. Keith falls way short.

[b] :contract: Then listen to CSpan or NPR



Olbermann is a self described commentator .... he even calls these his "Special comment" .... they are an editorial ... not a reporting of news. [/b]

I try to, but the wife is hooked on these "special report" shows, so they're always droning in the background no matter what I'm doing. I'll hear bits and pieces of Chris Matthews, Keith, O'Reilly, Carlson, Blitzer, etc until they all merge into painful white noise.
I guess I have to either kill my wife or destroy my television.

[color="#FF0000"][b]Hey, I used to have one of those "Black Power Fist" pics when I was a kid.
My dad Coy used to take me to those Black Panther rallies all the time.

Oh........ those were the good old days. :wub:
