THE MEDIA: From Wingnuts to War

We start with a break away from war-war-war to give us all, well, a break.
At least at the top.

Frankly, we need a laugh.

We need to let go for a moment, if just one.

Ann Coulter was on “Hardball” again today, this time talking to Chris
Matthews; last time Norah O'Donnell had the duty. It's always interesting when
Ann's in the chair. It seems Dan Abrams taking over on MSNBC means a bit of
shaking up. Don't know if it will work, but at least the network has a pulse,
that is up until sunset on the Pacific. That's when “MSNBC Investigates”
invades and darkness settles in.

Listen to Ann battling Chris, both of them coming off like rhetorical wrestlers
looking for a ring. It's “Crossfire” of the blonds, no offense to
blondes intended. Come to think of it, is Chris Matthews really a blond?

Ann also called Al Gore a “total fag” today. Oh, come on, people,
it's just a joke.

We also have some serious radio entertainment this evening.

Mike Stark of Calling All Wingnuts caught el Rushbo with his pants down today.
Rush completely lost his composure. From minimum wage to balancing things
to taking 10-20-30 Viagra
pills!
Rush lost it for the second time this week. Listen
to this.

Also wanted to give a shout out to Cenk at The Young Turks. He's got an
interview with Senator Dick Durbin
what might interest you.

The last clip I offer this evening is very illuminating. It's from
PBS's
The News Hour, entitled “Media Prisms,”
which takes a
look at the media coverage of the Israeli – Lebanese conflict, from Tehran to
Fox News to NBC, then offers a discussion. It's fascinating.

Media
Coverage of Israel-Hezbollah Fighting Shapes Perceptions

By the way, CNN's John King reported tonight on Anderson Cooper 360 that BushCo
has pulled back from demanding Hezbollah disarm. What they're now sayint is that
Hezbollah needs to pull back, engage in negotiations, blah-blah-blah… … (Insert
cave in here.) The neocons are going to need a rehab facility by the time this
one is over.

TM NOTE: Hope you're enjoying the new media we just installed. …more to come…
