CBSNews: Very Upset By Sinclair Broadcasting's Late Political HitAll of this crying over Stolen Honor, and yet no one said boo when Michael Moore announced he was planning an election-eve pay-per-view celebritython offering of Fahrenheit 9-11. Update: Qu'ran makes similar points. More interesting to me, he catches Filet-O-Fish calling Instapundit a partisan hack, in so many words. I don't get it. Instapundit made this guy. Willis owes his entire undeserved modicum of semi-fame to Instapundit, who was entirely over-generous in constantly linking this jackass. But everytime Willis insults him, he gives him a link. This is odd behavior. Principled, I guess, but why encourage insults from a retard? For what it's worth, Instapundit annoys me when he suggests -- as he occasionally does -- that, to fight the war, we have to enact his preferred libertarian social policy immediately, lest the terrorists win. I'm not a fan of linking anything to the War on Terror except, you know, the War on Terror. Hoping for a link. Fingers crossed! posted by Ace at 12:50 PM
CommentsSurely you understand the difference between a cable or satellite 'pay-per-view' showing of F-9/11 and Sinclair telling all of its stations to run Stolen Honor over the taxpayer-owned airwaves... Posted by: on October 13, 2004 01:36 PM
And so, do you understand the difference between reporting,a nd allowing Kerry to rebut the film, live and in person, and simply putting out anti-Bush hatred as fact without a chance at rebuttal? Posted by: Bithead on October 13, 2004 01:39 PM
You honestly think airing a smearumentary on the public air-waves is 'reporting'? Wow. Sure, ok - whatever. Then lets have Sinclair run F-9/11 the next night and give President Bush a chance to rebut. Posted by: on October 13, 2004 01:50 PM
Bithead They,not sinclair, are going to run 911 two nights before election and they are NOT going to give Pres Bush the chance to respond. Why are you not protesting that one? could it be that as long as it is anti-Bush it is ok but if it is anti-Kerry it should be supressed? As far as Stolen Honor being a smear, where is your proof that these vets, much more decorated than Kerry, are lying? Show us some proof or shut up about it. Also, the last time I looked the 1st amendment was in play and it applied to all people not just lefties. (bet that comes as a surprise huh?) Posted by: carl on October 13, 2004 02:00 PM
Why, yes, yes I did... With bonus Ollie fun! Posted by: Qur'an Pundit on October 13, 2004 02:42 PM
Dan Schuster at MSNBC has an aricle about this. Here is my post to him: You claim that there are factual errors, testimony is incomplete, and not enough POWs were included. Unlike CBS, Sinclair has invited Kerry to speak immediately following As you recognize, the few stations that Sinclair owns are nothing Also, Kerry's spokesperson has threatened Sinclair if Kerry gets The Constitution of the US should be the deciding factor. Not party I'm disappointed that you would put your politics above the Posted by: Fred on October 13, 2004 02:51 PM
You guys are amazing. These situations are not analogous. Perhaps Fred's scenario is _closer_ but even that is not the same thing at all. 60 minutes is a regularly scheduled investigative news program. And BTW, don't make this about 60 minutes or Dan Rather because its not and you know it. So, Sinclair is telling all of its stations to pre-empt regularly scheduled programming to air this thing. An analogous situation would be, say, NBC pre-empting "Fear Factor" to show The Bush Family Fortunes. The showing of F-9/11 is a capitalist venture -- it's PAY PER VIEW for crying out loud, do you all really not understand this? What sinclair is doing is a misuse of the public airwaves, pure and simple. Posted by: on October 13, 2004 06:57 PM
So I assume, anonymous poster, that you get as ticked as all of us do, when NPR and PBS use their time, which is funded by the public, to rip conservatives and cheerlead for the liberal agenda at every opportunity? Posted by: lauraw on October 13, 2004 07:39 PM
lauraw - I think your full of it. At least were PBS is concerned - PBS is not "liberal" but the right has been able to spin it that way with the incessant noise machine. At it's best PBS was a home to intelligent centrism. But more and more it is a mouthpiece for coporate America. Look at who the sponsors are. Be real. This the network that has provided homes to John McLaughlin, David Gergen, William F. Buckley, Jr., the Nightly Business Report and now Tucker Carlson and The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board. Just because you say something over and over doesn't make it true. If PBS were truly liberal/leftwing/progressive there would be shows featuring Jim Hightower, Noam Chomsky, Joe Conason, Greg Palast, Molly Ivins, etc. etc. etc. PBS is a blend of political viewpoints with ultimately far more representation from pundits in the center and to the right than from the left. NPR is slightly more progressive, but not by much. Posted by: on October 14, 2004 12:06 AM
lauraw: btw - nice bait and switch! I fell for it :-) Posted by: on October 14, 2004 12:37 AM

Lost Seventies Mystery Click: The Darkest Song Ever Recorded?
I think Professor of Rock (on YouTube) claimed this song was so upsetting that people used to pull over to the side of the road when it came on the radio. It's about a fatal plane crash, but obviously it suggests a fatal car crash too, which could wig out a driver. It's like one of those nasty 70s anti-war body horror movies. Not for the squeamish. I'm not even going to post the lyrics because they're upsetting too.

Former CIA operative John Kiriakou talks with Matt Taibbi about the Brennan/Comey Coup
Both guys are old liberals, maybe even of the far-left variety, and both are appalled by the Democrat/Deep State coup against the US. Kiriakou says that CIA officers were legally obligated to report to the Inspector General John Brennan's repeated overruling of actual intelligence to encode his partisan conspiracy theories into US intel product, but of course they didn't.
