After a week of "Free Speech" on CBS, no Democratic or liberal voices on national security

1. How "fair and balanced" of them eom

2. They didn't mean "Free Speech" as in the 1st amendment.

They mean free as in free air time for some GOP shill to give a speech.

3. F Katie Couric. She's a washed up has-been in the media.

This move has proven she can't pull in the viewers on her own. She has no credibility, she needs to be doing fluff stories instead of hard news. She isn't capable, nor is she qualified to sit in Walter Cronkite's former chair.

It's a real shame.

4. Should we call CBS News FOX news - light?

she was a cheerleader in college and continues in that veign now. Making money in corporate news media.

5. Only if you spell Light "LITE" - fits Katie better, don't you think?

:rofl:

Oh, and it needs to be in a pale pink font, something frilly, with a hazy cloud around it.

:rofl:

6. Here's what to do about it

Now that they are all FoxNews . . .

7. It's not "Free Speech"... it's . . . "freeSpeech"

I'm sure that running the words together like that means it's trademarked and copyrighted...

It's like truthiness..

8. They mean morality-free speech.
