CNN Needs German Subtitles

[Zomby Woof]

Pat Buchanan is on. :puke:

[longship]

1. Here is Garrett Morris to provide the headlines for the hard of hearing.

"Today's top story: Generallisimo Francisco Franco is still dead."

Remember?

[nosillies]

2. He just said wetback

How does that translate?

What a goob.

[Selatius]

5. It translates to "Braune Juden" or "Brown Jews" in English.

Nah, I'm just joking :)

[walldude]

3. He kept talking about Native Americans of European Descent

what a jackass. "Not enough room in this town for all you Mexicans". :eyes:

4. that's an ignorant statement...

I get your meaning...but it's damn disrespectful to Germans and German-Americans, IMO.

8. LOL

I am half German. Does this mean I am a self-loathing German? ;-)

[blm]

6. Even Pat doesn't spout the BFEE lines as much as Wolf Blitzer does.

What does THAT tell you about CNN?

[Zomby Woof]

9. Pat's a racist paleocon and ex-Nixon staffer

Wolf's a neocon and wants to be Bush's masseuse.

I really won't choose between the two. :puke:

[blm]

11. Wolf's worse because he POSES as a reporter informing the public.

Pat never runs from his own bias or agenda.

7. Err ... why?

Are the watchers so "German" that they don't understand English anymore?
Is there a huge German community, requiring subtitles?

Or was it about CNN dropping to level that the language became German by the implication of the content? (hello Marx, Schiller, Goethe, Brecht, ...)

In the case of the latter: what about Spanish/English subtitles - German seems redundant.

10. Hate the Irish, do ya? n/t
