This chick is amazing Fox trys sooooo hard to make everything against them and the conservatives to be bad. Its sad to see her reaching soo hard to make an issue here.....Wow Greta Van Susteren WOW.
this was such a damned non issue when it was brought up.
typically, fox was trying to create scandal where there was none and failed again!
murdock you'd be a real patriot if you turned fox news into "the fox cartoon channel". you would up viewership numbers & intelligence and make lots more money at the same time.
americans would get a more factually accurate and truthful cable network.
seems like a win, win situation for all concerned. that is except for the liars who work at fox news!
How is questioning if there is a conflict of interest being racist? That is a completely valid point. Even if the book is not ABOUT Obama directly you cannot honestly say that him winning the election wouldn't make people more interested in her book and help it sell more copies. That question has NOTHING to do with race. The only ones I see making it about race are the people who think it's wrong to even bring up the subject.
Honestly if the moderator was releasing a book titled "The Breakthrough: Politics and Military Service in the Age of McCain" (or even worse Bush) the media would be throwing an absolute fit. It wouldn't matter what the title was or if the book was not specifically about him. I think it's ridiculous to even bring race into this. It's about a conflict of interest NOT race.
I agree with you that it isn't about race. It pisses me off when any attack on an African-American is labeled "racist." What this is really about is the ethics of foul and biased Fox News. Greta van Susteren is a disgrace to both journalism AND the bar.
What, pray tell, is a "conflict of interest" in the context of the media? Please explain.
Honestly I think this election has solidified the fact that all of the networks are somewhat bais. I'm not defending Greta's journalism skills however I don't think she is a disgrace. A conflict of interest in the media is the same as anywhere else. There are not enough characters in the comment to fully explain the definition of a conflict of interest. All I'm saying is why couldn't it be someone with nothing questionable. Then there would be nothing to wonder.
It's okay. I'm fully aware of what a conflict of interest is. I just don't think the term has any place in a discussion about the media. No one would be safe if there were such a thing as a media conflict of interest. Anyone from Fox News would have a conflict of interest in a debate. If McCain wins, Fox News's ratings would be boosted because people would watch so they could blind themselves to what he's screwing up. If Obama wins, they'd watch Fox News to remind themselves why they hate him.
Likewise, people would watch the left-leaning networks for the converse reasons. If you disqualify anyone with a bias as having a "conflict of interest" then there's no one left.
I don't think sales of her book will change whether Obama wins or loses the election. People enthralled with black history will be its target audience either way.
And I don't think it took this election to point out the bias in the networks. Trust me, I'm not claiming that Fox is the only biased one-- but its slogan is a joke.
During the Mark Foley scandal, "fair and balanced" Fox News thrice referred to him as a Democrat, hoping people would forget that he was, in fact, a Republican.
Gwen Ifel was completely professional and nonbiased. She is a wonderful example to others. Sadly the Republican party is behind and growing more despairate. Her book is a non-issue.
That said, I very much enjoyed seeing Queen Latifa portray her on SNL. And I'm pleased Fox is promoting her book with such energy.
Gwen let us down. She let Fox scare her into doing anything to make sure that she was not a part of the story this election year. She should have told Palin that the American people want answers to her questions and Palin take a stand. I was disappointed that Biden didnt call Palin on it when it became clear that Gwen wasnt going to hold her feet to the fire.
mccain's people only had to do a google search on Gwen Ifill to see that this book was coming out, it was announced in july 2008, and time magazine wrote an article about it in august........shows how smart these idiots running FOX news and mccains campaign are...
THE BOOKS NOT ABOUT SENATOR OBAMA YOU RACIST BITCH! Fox noise makes me furious! How the fuck do they know who Gwen's supporting to be the next President? She hasn't announced who she's voting for and the book she's writing is about the progress african americans are seeing in the political arena. I have no idea why their ratings are so high. Reasonable people should be disgusted by such obvious racism.
This is reason number 100,000,000 I fucking hate Fixed Noise, read the title "Controversy ERUPTS !" no god damn controversy erupted, this is fabricated controversy over nothing - But Im glad, because it shows their panicked, and their getting desperate, and Keith Olbermann shut them the fuck up on his yesterday episode. Fucking racists.
Too bad that don't have plastic surgery to get rid of that ugly racist attitude. Although, the real plastic surgery didn't do anything for that ugly face of hers!
rushie neocons are sooo much like killers charlie manson and jefferie dahmer that i confuse the three ... they have sold their souls to satan and are liars ... i watched the debate ... and the most telling moment was at the very end ... when the two spouses walked on the stage ... one a teacher ... the other an oil man ...the second coming of haliburton .. the choice was clear .. diabolical .. the neocons spend $500M+ for show biz talk shows to dupe the dopes .. but they had to knock off russert
How about people try reading the book first. The book has nothing to do with supporting Obama or any other candidate. It has to do with the progress of Black America. People are so stupid.
Greta Van Susteren made her bones commenting on the OJ Simpson murder trial, when did she did make the jump to politics.....She is on the outside looking in, her own guest disagrees with her. Greta can't stand in the same room as Gwen Ifill, what a hack!!
You've got waaaaay too much time...better use it wisely and read up on the issues instead of making kindergarten pictures. Oh, and by the way: rigging the election has been and still is exclusive to the GOP. VOTE OBAMA/BIDEN '08! CHANGE THSI COUNTRY!!
I'm a democrat, but I think you might want to rethink that statement. In case you didn't notice over the past few years, a lot of dead and made-up folks have voted for our guys...
