Lou Dobbs quits CNN

The anti-American network (CNNi) was the only station I could get for long spells (Vomit icon). I'd keep the sound off until there was something live.

I haven't watched in months... if you want FOX, go to: BlinkoTV | FREE iPTV Broadcasters.

Justice is being served. Doesn't O'Reilly have higher ratings than all their shows combined? :rofl

.

I don't watch Faux News, simply because they lie all the time.

I won't eat in a dining establishment if I have to watch Faux News.

So far, every place I eat has switched to MSNBC or CNN, upon my request.

I apologize for breaking this breaking news, with out the required link, but I wanted to discuss it, and there was no link available, I am sorry.:3oops:
 
He belongs on Faux News with the other liars.

Funny. FOXNEWS has not had a retraction of a major story. Nada one.

CBS has the distinction of trying to sway a presidential election in its dying days with forged documents.

CNN has the distinction of being a propagandist for Saddam Hussein.

And then there is this beauty from Howard Fineman during a moment of weakness. WHOOPS!
Fineman: 'Mainstream Media Party' is over - Howard Fineman- msnbc.com

A political party is dying before our eyes — and I don't mean the Democrats. I'm talking about the "mainstream media,"...

Still, the notion of a neutral, non-partisan mainstream press was, to me at least, worth holding onto. Now it's pretty much dead, at least as the public sees things. The seeds of its demise were sown with the best of intentions in the late 1960s, when the AMMP was founded in good measure (and ironically enough) by CBS.

The problem was that, once the AMMP declared its existence by taking sides, there was no going back. A party was born.

It was not accident that the birth coincided with an identity crisis in the Democratic Party. The ideological energy of the New Deal had faded; Vietnam and various social revolutions of the ’60s were tearing it apart. Into the vacuum came the AMMP, which became the new forum for choosing Democratic candidates.

Sober yet?

FOXNEWS has reinserted balance, and to leftists used to having PRAVDA-ABC, PRAVDA-CBS, PRAVDA-NBC, PRAVDA-CNN, PRAVDA-MSNBC... actually hearing from the opposition is shocking :shock: something they just are not used to.

FOX is really an old styled news network... with opinion shows added... not a blind propaganda mill like the AMMP, as Howie Fineman eloquently noted.

:2wave:

I just wish Fox would have come out and said they were leaning right, and be the first honest network on television today. We all know the others lean left, but this fair and balanced stuff, it just doesn't hold up to scrutiny. This is not to say they lie, or they are dishonest, but they do cater to the right, and that is something that was missing in our society, and it took some business man from another country to cash in.

This is something we should all be ashamed of, we are pretty dumb here, we allow ourselves to be lead around like sheep.

Baaaahhhhh.:(

I feel sorry for you. To be so engrossed in the D vs. R argument that you can't even eat the food you want comfortably?

If you're going to judge the news of Fox News, look at Special Report, the Fox Report, Studio B, and some other programs. Don't judge the opinion offered by Beck, O'Reilly, and Hannity. Besides, O'Reilly isn't even right-wing, he's a populist. Don't believe me? Look at his views on "windfall profits" earned by oil companies and health care reform.

I did re-read my post, and I meant that we should be ashamed that a guy from the country down under, had to come here, and give us balance. I agree that the news part of the station is fair, but they do come at it from the conservative ideology, and that is o.k, that is great, I happen to love the channel.

And on the guy with heartburn....LOL, yeah, that is pathetic.

Well to be fair he is an American citizen now.
 
Lou Dobbs to Quit CNN

Update: Lou Dobbs to Quit CNN - Media Decoder Blog - NYTimes.com

Lou Dobbs, the longtime CNN anchor whose anti-immigration views have made him a TV lightning rod, said Wednesday that he is leaving the cable news channel effective immediately.

Sitting before an image of an American flag on his television set, he said “some leaders in media, politics and business have been urging me to go beyond the role here at CNN and to engage in constructive problem solving as well as to contribute positively to the great understanding of the issues of our day.”

“I’m considering a number of options and directions,” Mr. Dobbs added. A transcript of his remarks is available here.

Jonathan Klein, the president of CNN/U.S. said in a statement that “Lou has now decided to carry the banner of advocacy journalism elsewhere.”

Is this a shock to anyone? It's been coming for a while. He just didn't fit in at Liberal Central.

Re: Lou Dobbs to Quit CNN

In case you were not aware of it a few days ago someone fired a shot at Lou Dobbs home while his wife beside her car out side. Now the chances of this being a Conservative are some where between zero and NFW. Lou has been routinely verbally attacked and threatened in one way or the other for some time by the Leftist who are working overtime lying about violence that didn't happen except by their supporters like SEIU beating people up. SEIU's last victim was a Democrat too. The first was a black man who was called a disparaging name by his attcker who was never charged.
It has been so far threat all the violence comes for the left and all of the threats lies and name calling comes from them too.
I hope Lou Dobbs is going to Fox where his audience numbers will do nothing but explode.
 
Re: Lou Dobbs to Quit CNN

I never really listened to Dobbs, didn't know he was conservative.

Yeah, I heard that. What did Stephen Colbert say? "Dobbs reported that he did not see or hear the shooter, but reported him as Latino"? :lol:

So do I. Now CNN can fill his slot with someone that maybe I can watch. Only question is: can Fox handle so many prima donna arrogant blow hards? Why not! Most right wingers blow anyway.
 
"i don't watch fox"

"fox lies"

"all the time"

LOL!

cnn is last and shrinking

as for dobbs, we'll take him

along with all those bluedogs the fussy fems are gonna force out

with all their constituents

they'll all fit comfortably within our big, anti-obama tent
 
Eh, never liked the guy, like other commentators like that, but I would really be interested to know where he goes next-just to see if the conservatives of any flavor become unknown on the liberal media front.

Joe and Pat are probably all that remains on these other networks, is that right?
 
He belongs on Faux News with the other liars.

With the exception of his protectionist trade and drug war views, Dobbs tends to be on the money most of the time.

He's not, hes a populist. Granted Populism can go either way.

I used to like his show 'Moneyline'. Then he started to get a little wacky with his immigration stances, and I drifted away from watching him.

He's going to Fox? I thought he and Stossel had a public pissing match last month, and Stossel declared Dobbs would never be coming to Fox?

Did someone mention Stossel? Dobbs has got nothing on that magnificent mustache. Just look at it. LOOK AT IT!

Yeah and he's not that bad of an investigative journalist either. Speaking of which, if anyone has a copy or knows where I can procure a copy of his IJ piece Politically Incorrect please let me know.
 
Yeah but...ya know...I don't want to actually pay for it. It would go against my very morals as an Internet Pirate.


:lol: but seriously, thanks


oooOOOOOoooo :doh You did say procure, and not purchase :lol: I didn't catch it ;)
