FoxNews will do Response to Nightline 'Stunt' Sunday

[Killarney]

Fox News Sunday's Chris Wallace announced Friday that he's planning to respond to ABC Nightline host Ted Koppel's decision to air photos and names of GI's Killed in Iraq, calling Koppel's broadcast "a stunt."

Wallace said this on a talk radio show in Boston. He didn't mention specifically what they are going to do on his show tomorrow.

1. They should give LYNNDIE ENGLAND A MEDAL

At the Article 32 Hearing (like a grand jury hearing) Specialist Matthew Wisdom, an M.P under
oath stated

Wisdom said:
SFC Snider grabbed my prisoner and threw him into a pile. . . . I do not think it was right
to put them in a pile. I saw SSG Frederic, SGT Davis and CPL Graner walking around the
pile hitting the prisoners. I remember SSG Frederick hitting one prisoner in the side of its
ribcage. The prisoner was no danger to SSG Frederick. . . . I left after that.
When he returned later, Wisdom testified:
I saw two naked detainees, one masturbating to another kneeling with its mouth open. I
thought I should just get out of there. I didn’’t think it was right . . . I saw SSG Frederick
walking towards me, and he said, ““““Look what these animals do when you leave them
alone for two seconds.”””” I heard PFC England shout out, ““““He’’’’s getting hard"

15. that picture

it's so painful to see such humiliation, and to see not a speck of humanity in those two faces. Truly despicable.

2. That is vulgar! n/t

Is Chris Mike Wallace's son?

[The Magistrate]

3. Perhaps, Sir

He will read the names of all dead Iraqis....

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

[terrya]

4. I'm guessing it will be a litany of Saddam Hussein's brutalaties.

This administration and their "news" organization Faux News has to come up with some justification as to why some 800 American men and women have senselessly given their lives in this pointless war.

5. Yes he is Mike Wallace's son

Isn't Mike Wallace a repug or no?

[onefreespiritedchick]

21. No, Mike Wallace is a Dem

And good friends with the Kennedy family. I'm surprised at Chris Wallace for doing this though, but then he's moved to Fox News.

[enough]

6. They will probably read the names of those killed on 9-11

Contributing to the myth that whatever we do in Iraq is justified as revenge for that atrocity.

[bpilgrim]

7. what? r they gonna list the names of the wounded???

or the dead CIVILIANS... nah they would never give-up that much PRIMETIME :puke:




peace

11. He's going to take a few moments...

...to read a litany of GWBs accomplishments. Then he's going to repeat it a couple hundred times to fill in the airtime between commercial breaks.

8. How about a boycott announcement of

advertisers for the Fox propaganda show (along with picketing). I keep getting madder and madder so I would like to fight back for the sake of truth, the constitution, and the fallen. We can't let them keep getting away with taking this country away from educated and decent people still left in this country. I'm really getting enough of them. The true enemy of the US is within and it is the ignorant arrogant jingoistic garbage that is them. Sorry, had to rant.

9. Chris Wallace has a talk show?

I have no cable and cannot believe why anyone would watch FoX News. Care to comment?

[saigon68]

10. Your're not missing anything

Thats for sure :-) :-)

[Stephanie]

12. Maybe he will read the names of the Iraqi's who were killed

Well, if he's going to do a "response", that would the logical one, right?

[maddezmom]

13. no, a stunt is the chimp flying in to the aircraft carrier dressed ....

in a flightsuit declaring "combat operations over" or serving up Turkey on Thanksgiving in Iraq. Those are stunts...death is not a stunt.

[wtmusic]

14. thanks for a little perspective

:thumbsup:

[mike_c]

16. they'll read the quarterly earnings statements of Haliburton...

...KBR, Bechtel, etc.

[Ezlivin]

17. Fox News Kills Brains Dead!

Perhaps he'll read a list of the names of people who've had their IQs lowered sufficiently to believe Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, et al.

[Unknown Known]

18. Chris Wallace used to stand-in for Koppel on Nightline

and ABC News. IIRC, he's Mike's brother -

[Bozita]

19. How about a crucifixion? (an appeal to their base)

[librechik]

20. Forget about the dead ones! Here's what our brave LIVING GIs

are busy in Iraq and around the world doing. Why this is Mike JOnes, of tupelo MS, giving a chocolate bar to a hungry child. And here's Tom Smart of Newton IA, helping his buddies install armor on their HUmvee. Not that it's necessarry,; on the average this particular troop will never be injured! Say Hi to your Mom, Tom, I'm sure she's watching! That's the spirit!

Like that.

[Bullshot]

22. I heard Limbaugh suggest that Koppel read off the names

of those soldiers in Iraq who haven't been killed. Fair enough.

Some day, maybe Koppel should read off the names of all of the pharmacies who sold Limbaugh all of his pain killers. That list would be longer than the list of soldiers killed in Iraq.
