Normally I like Lawrence O'Donnell
but right now he is pissing me off.

He's on Scarborough dissing Dan Rather for saying the press is weak kneed and passive.

1. He is FUCKING OFF HIS ROCKER!!!!!!!!!
He's actually trying to defend the job the media did in the lead up to war. He's saying they are not weak-kneed with regards to ChimpCo.

his profession and his colleagues, but he's doing it poorly.

5. He annoyed the hell out of me when he used to fill in for Franken,
I couldn't listen to him - he just annoys me so I should be glad that I missed him on the TeeVee.

I'm listening to Malloy. :hi:

brave and strong.

Clue to Larry, we aren't talking about the war correspondents. The RW'ers are the ones who mock them ala Laura Ingrahm. We were talking about the WH and US based reporters pre-War.

He has to know that - I don't get his obtuseness.

16. he's fast-approaching geezerdom, and knows that the "so-called media"
has lost control.

People have choices now and they are voting with their wallets. they have quit subscribing to newspapers/magazines and they have stopped watching the "tv-news".
