Channel Surfing it seems they spend alot of time focusing on McCain, Romney, Huckabee and pointing out what "they see" as the charming contrasts between them.

Yet, when it comes to Democrats...it seems it's all UGLY...Race Baiting and Calling Out between the Clinton/Obama Camps while John Edwards gets barely a mention...but when he does...it's negative dismissal?

Any Channel Surfers who've noticed this?

What have you seen that is really "fair and balanced." :shrug: I find I have to turn a lot of it off after awhile...

1. Heh heh heh. You said "threesome". Heh heh




Sorry. Couldn't resist. I'd offer an intelligent comment, but I don't watch TV. And I'm not intelligent.

Edit:because the media HAS performed one gang rape by disassociation.

5. It was Hyperbole...but if one looks at it closely...(Media Blackout) how else could one describe it?
:shrug: We need harsh terms for harsh times...and when our own "Enfotainment Media" uses "Hyperbole" for everything...then shouldn't we fight back in ways that folks out there can understand?

After all...our McCorporate Media seems to have endless ability to "Focus Group" the "Electorate" with their OWN HYPERBOLE of the results of their BIG CORPORATE DOLLARES. :shrug:

4. Three Stooges Were More Entertaining, Frankly
and probably a good deal smarter than the GOP 3.
