WTF? CNN sharing an interview with Roeder.

[Catshrink]

Roeder was pleased that Tiller's clinic will be closed -- it's a victory for the unborn children of the world, no more "slicing and dicing" them. Said he never admitted guilt.

Ongoing...

1. Roeder

.

3. Got it..

Typing before coffee.

2. This is why you need the death penalty

Because if you kill the criminals, they can't talk anymore, and we don't have to listen to them.

[billyoc]

4. You're supposed to hold terrorists under Special Administrative Measures

so they can't communicate with the rest of their terrorist network.

5. Let me ask - did CNN show any interview with Don Siegelman while he was in prison?

Who have they interviewed or run interviews of before Roeder? Is he not in jail/prison?

[greenbriar]

6. when was this

and I will say it again, That mother fucker should NOT be having rights like interviews and phones ect.


GOD it pisses me off

[Catshrink]

9. It just happened.

Ted Rollins? (the reporter) just finished talking to him. Said Roeder's lawyer had told him to stop talking so much or the feds would get involved. Why aren't they involved already????

[bdamomma]

11. all the right wingers are going to go crazy making this killer

their martyr.

[KansDem]

7. Yeah, you must have missed the Charles Manson interview with CNN after his arrest...

:sarcasm:

[ecstatic]

8. so irresponsible... Don't they realize they're encouraging

copycats by giving that monster air time?!?

[insanity]

10. They don't care

As long as they get the scoop and keep people watching. The for-profit media sold out democracy and decency a long time ago.

14. That's how they boost their ratings. War, killings, unrest, all are good for ratings.

All news networks are nothing but ratings whores.. They truly don't give a damn about American lives or their country period.. It is all about Money...

[Catshrink]

12. It's back on..

Jami Floyd is speaking.

* Said Roeder is probably more concerned about his support "out there" than his freedom and that's why he's ignoring his lawyer's advice to be quiet.
* Said they're probably going for a mental defect defense.
* The access given the AP and CNN is unusual.
* Said Roeder's aim is to "get the message out."

[Catshrink]

13. More

CNN returns to the story...

* Says Roeder was almost robotic as he repeated the anti-abortionists' talking points and just rattled them off

* If I am found guilty by a jury, then "it was a victory in defense of the unborn."

* Roeder never denied it, never said "I'm the wrong guy, get me out of here."

Actually, I think this was a rerun of the original report, I just caught more of it.

15. first of all, CNN and the rest need to stop giving him a free soapbox

lest they want to broadcast every prisoner's sob story and 'mitigating circumstances'...

I still think Roeder is trying to get his trial tainted by giving all these wacko interviews...i'm willing to bet when all is said and done, he gets a much lighter sentence than anyone suspects...

dark times we live in
