Fox 13, Tampa, spun the Senate Intelligence report to blame Rockefeller.
I can't find it in their site. but I heard it and was appalled.

They spoke of the fact that the report said Saddam did not trust Bin Laden, that there was no connection. Ok, right so far.

Then they turned it over to Greg Jarrett, who immediately took the blame off Bush by putting it on Senator Rockefeller. They even showed his statement before the war saying Saddam was dangerous.

They hardly mentioned the fact that Bush lied. It was far more important to them to blame it on the Democrats. They then all looked pretty pleased with themselves for getting through the segment without making Bush their hero look bad at all.

2. This is how they work. The corpmedia's only job is to protect Bush at all
cost, and that means trashing Dems and preventing any real truth to come out.

3. Fox13 and the half dozen God channels are the reason I do not move
permanently to Tampa - heck the daily 2pm rain and the lack of non-minimum pay jobs for the retired could be dealt with, but a nutty cable company plus DirectTV going blank for a few hours every day because of the weather plus the over the air TV with biased news cancels out the weather and water front. And now I am boycotting DisneyWorld.

Friends that have learned to shut out the real world beyond personal social/church/UU/community helping activities, and to avoid TV, swear by Tampa. I am not there yet.

4. FonNews spin a story for the GOP?
(Claude Raines imitation):

I'm shocked, shocked! I say.
