Even though Chris Wallace is with Fox News, I have to say it was an unexpectedly good interview . Even the commentators were fair in
their summations after the interview.

Yes, Wright is enjoying the spotlight, and unfortunately (even though he made a great speech at the NAACP dinner) is using the limelight to release his hatred against White America. (i.e. his Press Conference this morning)

He is too egotistical to shut his mouth and is succeeding in spreading
hatred..

Vince Foster was a Lawyer supporting the Clintons, but committed suicide. Immediately after his body was found, rumors abound that his office was broken into, papers were taken and never found and
additional rumors stated that Hillary Clinton's prints were found all over. (Maybe that is why all those sniper bullets were fired?)

McCauliffe may be doing his job ...but it doesn't change the fact that most Americans are rather sick and tired of Hillary, Bill, Chelsea, McCauliffe et. al.

The longer they continue their charade, the more suspicious many of us will become..(i.e. . Is she really sabotaging the Democratic Party so that she can run for President in 2012 if McCain does win in November.)

I sincerely doubt that there will be a democratic party left to support her candidacy in 2012 if this is her intent.

You are correct in writing that because I don't like Bill, Hillary, et. al, it doesn't mean that 'most' Americans are also sick of them.

However, it also means that 'most' Americans may not disagree with my statement .

And my blurb IS about tv news... Its about the refusal of Hillary to get out and her demand to include Michigan and Florida's delegates in her favor!

Your blurb is an 'opinion' of my opinion......

I've never been a fan of Bill O', but I don't enjoy or appreciate the insults and jealousy displayed by Olberman that seems to be without cause and without merit. He, instead of making uncalled for issues with Bill O' should concentrate on programming a far better nightly hour, without his childish and at times inane chatter.

Re: mediabistro.com: TVNewser

Keith Olbermann's 'Worlds Worst Person' is unwarranted, unnecessary and
should be eliminated. It is ultra-opinioned based upon one inane person's opinion, the same person who happens to display silly chatter as well as inane statements in a ridiculous and abrasive manner.

That said, I don't find that Chris or Keith favor Obama over Hillary, I just think that Obama keeps displaying so much more intelligence, judgement, and leadership than the Bosnia Sniper Fire - Iraq War Voter, NY State License giver to immigrants, Senator.... how can they broadcast in favor for all that???

If there is still a healthy justice system in this country, Rove WILL be in jail - But..about Hillary, she will never be ashamed ... the woman, lacks pride, intelligence, judgement, and leadership, However, she will sell herself to Rove and The Devil to get what she wants. Any thinking person would have been able to ascertain Rove's intentions..but ..it is, once again, a matter intelligence and judgement ...

Kmartin173 - it isn't bias. Perhaps it may be bringing out the facts that may be in Barack Obama's favor.... How can you make lies, deceit, poor judgement look or sound good???
Tell me, because I am absolutely overwhelmed with this woman's baggage and her obsession to be 'president'.

I don't tune into Bill O'Reilly's program because I found him to twist too many facts and show a lack of respect for someone else's opinion. However, to hear the stupidity flowing out of Keith Olbermann's mouth about another anchor on a competitive program is not only in bad taste, but it is not news worthy. Who the devil is he to feel he is the right of way to use the airways to vent his jealous emotions???? I'm not interested in how he personally feels about another man.

Re: mediabistro.com: TVNewser

rosebows — Wed, 21 May 2008 21:22:59 -0000

But the whole purpose of the remote, is to turn to another program! I don't care for
Bill O', so I don't watch him. I also stopped watching Keith O.

What purpose is there for Olbermann to make issue of Bill O' ?? It isn't for
the listener's benefit, so it must be for his own benefit .. Certainly it doesn't raise his ratings, nor does it decrease Bill O's ratings.
So pray tell me, why does he do it when people aren't tuned in to O'Reilly ... his listeners are tuned in to him. If they cared about Bill O they would be with Bill O.

The NY Post has never been known for 'class', ethics, or morality. However, they sank to a new low with the headline concerning Senator Kennedy.
Would the person responsible for this Headline want to be told bluntly that 'he or she' is 'dying' and do they want to see it boldly put on the front page of the NY Post or some other cruddy paper?

Its a shame that there are reporters like this, but it is more of a shame
that people buy into this trash.

I do agree with Barry Nolan that to give an Emmy to O'Reilly is not only appalling, but gives him credit for being a nasty, egotistical, domineering
person that has one gift ... the ability to twist the truth and demean his guests.

But why did Nolan say he'd invite Keith Olbermann as his guest to the
May 10th ceremony that didn't happy anyway.....Why Keith

NKURUC - You wrote "I choose to watch a network that at the very least attempts to give both sides..."

Pray, tell me .... what network is that???? Certainly
not Fox ...certainly not MSNBC...

Perhaps you mean that all of us should take turns watching both networks to see if there really are 2 sides...Fox News', MSNBC'S, or the truth????

Hey Franklobo ... McCain will become the next President?
I pray not.

Re: mediabistro.com: TVNewser

rosebows — Thu, 22 May 2008 20:48:31 -0000

The name, my dear Franklobo, is 'Keith'. (not Keef) ...and Keith's problem is that Keith likes to hear himself talk, and probably tapes every show to play it back when he goes home.

However, you got your guys mixed up... It is Billy O' that is nasty, egotistical, domineering and has a powerful ability to twist the truth, and demean his guests.

To be Fair and Balanced, maybe we should watch CNN?

All of you mercenary people may be surprised to learn that where there is life there is hope.

And headlines shouldn't boldly scream that someone is dying! Where is compassion?

You should know you have so much of it!

Well, a rose by any other name is just as 'smelly', be that name Bill O' or Keef, Queef,
Queefy.

As I suggested, maybe we should watch CNN ..

The headline we are writing about was not in any way inspirational, and was as frightening as a death sentence. The strength of Ted Kennedy 's statement was one of 'hope'.

Perhaps the words "brave icon vows fight" should have been headlined!

Laugh of the month: Karl Rove saying that 'excerpts he's read sound more like they were written by a 'left-wing blogger' than by his former colleague.

Nice way of passing the truth from the 'right' hand.

For a while, Greta drew a huge audience because she promised
special updates on current murder mysteries, kidnappings, etc.. But the anticipation that awaited her audience was met with utter disappointment when she failed to produce 'closure'.
Additionally, Greta, seems to be moving too far politically to FNC 's views when Greta's earlier shows were known to be non-political.

Does anyone know what did happen to Paula Zahn??? And why????

Education makes someone 'someone'?

If a person has comon sense, personality, charisma, talent and intelligence, they will make it to the top of where they want to go. Education looks good on a resume, but once you have proven your ability, where you were educated,
when you were educated and what grades you got, don't matter.

Ask Bill Gates, for one....
