Shame on CNN

[Justified]

FYI on the St. Louis shooting [subject of thread]...it appears that some of the story is unraveling.

This might get very ugly yet.

Facts be damned, similar to the video of the guy with the passenger side window getting smashed by cops in Indiana and then getting tazed which looks like for no reason. Only Fox news so far has run the full video of the cops, very politely, repeatedly asking the guy to get out of the car. Refusal after refusal, the guy even asked for a Sergeant (good clue he's been in before when they ask for one). The media doesn't want the facts, they want a war as much as some of these people who claim to represent these minority groups do, then they will sit back on the sidelines while it all goes up. They fail to realize they will be engulfed in it too. There were a couple of times in Ferguson when the protesters started in on the news crews where the reporters were shocked when they started getting rocks thrown at them. They fail to realize that when the storm starts nothing is going to be off limits.

Once on the news there was a fire right on Tom Sellecks property. A news reporter and camera man were there filming Selleck shoveling. He looked up and said, "If you want to help, throw down that camera and grab a shovel!"

I meant the women on fox news are all fox`s. Not faux. I trust fox news and about have the tuner welded to it. I never thought or caught deliberate lies reported, give a example?
I will say I turn it off when they get a "panel" together and I know they are told to spice it up by arguing and shouting each other down like kindergarten kids. Outside of that I trust and watch them.
Sometimes I get irked by their usual panel of "consultants" that are suppose to give their input. I dont consider them any smarter or better informed than me usually. I would work a lot cheaper.

At age 9 or 10 he was ordained a minister in the Pentecostal church. I could not find any indication of ordination after that.

Shame that church didnt change him from later becoming one who attempted to deliver a large amount of Heroin. He was busted--then in order to not see jail time--sold out all of his associates to the FBI or some agency like the. He was heavier-set in those days-big mustache, and was also on video and audio-caught trying to make a drug deal.

Well... good grief... I must have missed it.

They finally got off that lost Malaysian jet airliner thing? For months... I watched Shark Attacker... err...uhh... I mean Wolf Blitzer beat the dust from the left-overs of that dead horse.

Wolf blitzer hasnt reported news since he was caught in baghdad (Gulf War Nr1)-when the bombings first started. Since then-its been all fictional reporting.

 

[feralmerril]

We are always going to have charlatans and shysters like rev`s Al and Jesse. What gets me is the fools that follow and believe the type and keep them as their mouthpieces. We are outnumbered and surrounded by idiots!
They vote too.

As in faux news. Yes, I agree. They fabricate as many lies as the other networks in the name of ratings.

So what lies have they on Fox News fabricated? Id like some true examples please. The only one on Fox that ive seen make a mockery of anything--was Geraldo Rivera--when he faked being under enemy fire--dueing the last Gulf War.

Cant get in to delete the extra posts--I guess wifi aint alloing it today?

They all lie and do anything for ratings.

Google anyone of them CNN TV lies, FOX TV lies etc.

 

[HOUSTON RICK]

I used to be a TV newshound, in my old age I prefer to read on the internet.

CNN ran this byline all day today:

"Black teenager fatally shot in head by police."

Of course, nothing in that byline says anything about the cop being shot at 3 times and firing in self defense. Shame on CNN for running a headline that it darn well knows could incite a riot. But I guess that's one way to get some sensational burning and looting footage.

'Cmon Sip,........ those minor details do not seem to matter anymore. That, and it doesn't sell papers or raise ratings. Sadly, folks are under the impression Policemen are supposed to dance with knife wielding bad guys or take a round in the vest before firing their weapons. Sad.

Most of my information comes from reading The Boston Herald, The Boston Globe and Mad Magazine.

And when I want real facts, The New York Post or The Daily Inquirer.

 

[steveno]

for the real facts when I was in Germany the Overseas weekly (yes there was another name but I don't think it can be used here) was were the facts were at. I don't know if it was in SEA but it was in Europe. Stars and Stripes just didn't cut it

 

[THE PILGRIM]

I am "Professor, Doctor, Master, Reverend, Grand Punjab, SIR Feralmerril" Just ask me.

Feral one-
What happened to the end of your nose?
If that's not dirt, you may need to see a real Doc.
Really!

Side question that I know is OT: Just how in heck does the tv rating people know what I am watching? I can understand it if I get a phone call from them asking, but tell me how can anyone possibly know what station I have on?

That's part of hat cable and satellite receivers do., keep track of you.
