'NewsHour' with Jim Lehrer sucks butt!!!

[TomInTib]

I just sat thru 60 minutes of that drivel.

You know, the usual serious shit about Lebanon, planets, health, world and national affairs - that sort of crap.

And not one word on the JonBenet tragedy.

Not one word!!

[MadMaddie]

1. Oh Tom.....it really is a surpise isn't it?

That old Jim just reporting the current events.....kinda mind boggling!!:hi:

[WHAT]

5. a recommendation for the title...

I can't comment on the rest of it since I didn't watch, but, from personal experience I would infer that there was more spin than substance...

[Viva_La_Revolution]

2. I know. I've been watching it every day for a few years...

just to make sure it sucks. no infotainment AT ALL! Oh, the humanity! :crazy:

[OwnedByFerrets]

6. Yeah, even my media-hero KO......

wasted half his show pumping up the volume on Jon Benet....although in all fairness, he probably had no choice since his new boss got an exclusive with the lawyer of the father.

[TomInTib]

8. Hey! That's a lie. It was definitely not half of his show! Take that back!

It was 40 effing minutes.

2/3 of the show.

[TomInTib]

7. Well, you just keep monitoring that show...

Me? I am off to find Rita Cosby!

Get me some knews I can use.

And I ain't tellin' what I'm gonna use it for.

[The Stranger]

3. NPR's Melissa Block gave the most suck-ass interview of an Undersecretary

of Defense, that it made me sick. "Terra, terra, terra" and typical of the new NPR (Neoconservative Public Relations).

[LTR]

4. Yeah, I hate that stuff

I wanna hear more about Tom and Katie's baby.

And they call themselves "News". Sheesh!

Well, at least we know the cable channels will have it.

[Skarbrowe]

9. Well we can all commend Dan Abrams for HOURS of

JonBenet coverage. I know he's the general manager of MSNBC now and he had been following this case for a long time, but DAYUM!, he spent the whole afternoon and the whole freakin night on the arrest of this guy in Thailand. No other news was allowed as far as I could tell. I had a tape set on MSNBC while I was out and that's all I saw on the tape. I wonder what Abrams boss thinks of this. Hardball didn't even come on. Sad that "Newshour" couldn't keep us so well informed. :sarcasm:

[Placebo]

10. God Bless Dan Abrams...

he has truly saved us all.

[Warren DeMontague]

11. Two words, man: USA Today.

If it can't be fit into two simple paragraphs with a nice primary color graph, it aint worth talkin' about!
