Sanity -> Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 10:04:51 AM)


Here's one, actually grilling Joe Biden in the same manner that Conservative politicians are grilled in virtually every interview they give. She isn't necessarily a Conservative though, is she.

Perhaps she's just being a real journalist.


Grilling Joe Biden







DomKen -> RE: Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 10:15:41 AM)

Yea she's biased.
Here's her interview with McCain:

Biden doesn't seem that angered....Think you might be stretching that a bit Sanity...He answered her questions and not once did he swallow his foot.

I didn't see any single Sarah Palin moment....



fearghus -> RE: Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 10:20:10 AM)

Yes.  Very biased.

She is about as biased against Biden as any CNN reporter is against a republican.

We don't really have non-biased news any more, just pundits for one side or another.  Most TV and newspapers are pro democrat, and most talk radio pro republican.  Naturally there are a few exceptions in these cases.

With most TV media being pro democrat, they tend to be able to do so a little more subtly, but conservative slanted TV media is more rare, they tend to come off sounding a little more ridiculous.

I find these days that if I can stand it, I have to watch a little fox news and a little cnn and try to compare the lies that each are spewing so that I can find where the grains of truth are.  In an election year like this, it is even MORE difficult to find anything of real substance.

 I think she gets her drugs from Rush



bestbabync -> RE: Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 10:27:22 AM)

my worry:
does the cancellation and  refusal to do any other interviews with that TV News Station/Interviewer by the Obama campaign give us an indication of things to come?

...no more than the vast raft of diverse interviews given by Palin does......



Sanity -> RE: Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 10:29:46 AM)

When did I say he was angered there, Mark?

Why don't you point that out to me.

Exactly right. That's the usual treatment Republicans get.

...feel free to put me straight then.



SilverMark -> RE: Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 10:35:34 AM)

Biden Angered By Tough Questions<------title of the video Sanity....pardon me.......you didn't state that.



Sanity -> RE: Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 10:44:01 AM)


That being said, Joe Biden didn't seem pleased to be getting the same kind of treatment usually reserved for Conservatives.

SilverMark -> RE: Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 10:53:21 AM)

lol...knew that was coming.....As the son of a criminal defense attorney and having worked for him as a student in college and having watched him do his magic, I would tell you almost anyone asked questions that aren't softballs( akin to those she asked of McCain)(see post from DomKen) will indeed be a bit uncomfortable but the title of the video is a bit misleading in my opinion. Sorry to attribute the title to you as I said, I would never want to attribute intent to one of your posts, it is normally so self evident.




Sanity -> RE: Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 11:00:47 AM)


C'mon... be real. He wasn't happy to get those hardballs thrown at him... nor did he seem used to it.



SilverMark -> RE: Ever Seen A Conservative News Anchor? (10/26/2008 11:08:38 AM)

But Sanity....you didn't say he was angry......
You told me so.....I believed you.....
Damn!...

It's a matter of perspective. My estimation of Biden has gone up after watching that especially when he rubbished the Marxist questions, that was funny. "was that a serious question."
 
He pointed out that every tax system spreads the wealth in one direction or another and under McCain it would be spread the wrong way up rather than down. The other point people keep saying is, "That Obama he wants to tax you and give it to people that don't work." This is kind of nonsense because people that don't work don't pay those taxes, do they? So the tax breaks aren’t really applying to them because those people are always in the non-paying area regardless. I don't understand this socialist fixation.

Well actually I do: stuck for ideas, then bleat on about how un American it all is.

~FR~

I'm seriously chuckling here. Thanks for the link, Sanity. It was very enjoyable. To me, he looked very pleased in a cat that ate the canary sort of way. Guess it's all about perception. Too bad she didn't ask him some real questions.

I don't know anything about refusing to do further interviews with that reporter, but as she's not very good at her job, I guess I can't blame them if it's true.

edited to add: I just finished watching her interview with McCain and I don't think she didn't ask him any real questions either. Nothing on issues. Ah well.
