    she didn't even want to hear the answers.. such a good reporter... yeah right. but that fascist guy was pretty dumb for not being able to explain himself. If your going to take a stance then be able to defend it.

    He needs to read Liberal Fascism if he is going to claim that.

    i agree...that was just ugly on both sides

    regardless of what the reporter's stance on it was...she shouldnt have shown it on TV...and she shouldve let the guy answer without getting in his face and yelling over him...

    and mr. facist shouldve been better informed

    That first guy was pretty fucking dumb...'Why do you say he's Fascist" "Cause he is"...NOT well spoken or educated about his "position."

    That was a fairly clearly biased report...but I've seen the same sort of things from Glenn Beck et al...No one plays "fair" anymore. Between the Magic wall and "high impact" multi-talented journalists....It's all about getting attention- Not providing worthwhile news. Too much information is available all the time (hence crappy news stories about nothing of consequence 98% of the time)

    what's amazing is that there were over 100,000 people attending these parties and I didn't see one national news station cover it.

    See...That's funny- Pretty sure I saw Glenn Beck "reporting" from the Alamo today on the regular Fox news broadcast....Speaks to the "multi-talented" thing I was talking about. No one is just a news journalist any more.

    I watch more CNN than anything else- I like the format more than I care about slant...I have to go read and learn for myself anyways (cause they all slant one way or the other)- Their "Cheif medical Correspondant" was tapped to be Surgeon General, they have several reporters who have "written" books.

    There is no pure news anymore...

    She didn't do a good job of it but she was trying to make an opposing point to the guy...Adding to the conversation about the topic.

    You know that husssssy really ticks me off but it is so sad as well. I wonder what all these people/reporters are going to do when they finial get the govnt they want in control then they tell the so called reporters that they are only allowed to report such and such i guess they will be happy then. They still have some freedom on the what and who in the reporting.

    she kept saying...look at all the money the state of Lincoln is getting. I don't get that. it's actually funny... look at all the money we are giving your state. where the hell do you think the money is coming from... that state! so we are taking your money to give it back.. how is that generous. how about not taking it to begin with.
