TV News Slips
FUNNY:
You could vote for this guy!!!! Check out the video for yourself.
By the Way, Obama is a Christian and did get sworn in on a Christian Bible.
Before I get to the heart of the matter, I would like to take a few lines to voice my opinion regarding commenters on liberal blogs. Aren’t they just the most insane people ever. They assail Fox News constantly yet seem to forget about terrorist threats. Why? Just like we must have "fear" in order to support anti-terror measures, we must be scared by liberal blogger to hate Fox News. Fear is a major motivator. By convincing tin-foil hat wearing imbiciles that Rupert Murdoch and Fox News are trying to take over the world and annoint George Bush king, they get power for the far-left organizations they represent. ANYWHO…
Barack Obama finally went on Fox News Sunday.
Why is it that the weekend edition of Fox & Friends has no defined group of hosts. They have different combinations each weekend. I liked it better with Kelly Wright, Paige Hopkins, and Greg Kelly. The new guy they have, Clayton Morris, isn’t half bad, but Ainsley is already on other duties and quite frankly she is not ready for the big time. OH WELL.
However, one bright spot on the weekend schedule is the new girl, Shannon Bream in Washington, anchoring Saturday. She does a good job in my opinion.
MSNBC had their best month in ratings since September 2005 (Hurricane Katrina). The gains were especially seen in prime time (up 72% total viewers and 84% in the 25-54 demographic).
MSNBC’s prime time (8 pm to 11 pm ET) features leftwing commentator/neutral anchor Keith Olberman (who has seen big gains), crime/legal guy and left-of-center commentator Dan Abrams, and two hours of "Doc-Block."
I think the doc-block has been popular, even though it is pretty lame. Dam Abrams’ show is not very popular, but Keith Olberman is pretty popular.
The doc-block can’t last forever.
I really know my current events. The main reason is that I watch Cable News and scan The Drudge Report.
Like most Americans, I don’t read a newspaper, except on a Sunday, when I read the comics and a few sections in Parade Magazine. What really upsets me is that so many people think we need newspapers to get news. However, I will tell you that much of the in-depth investigative reporting comes from newspapers. But so what. I would rather not know about the mexican immigrants’ fingers ending up in the chicken fingers at some restaurant. Newspapers are dying, and that is that. As for Network news (CBS, ABC, NBC) they are all the same in my opinion. Katie Couric is OK, but i would prefer Fran Dresher for an anchor. Brian Williams and Charlie Gibson do a good job.
However, the real $$$ is in cable news. MSNBC sucks. The only shows I can watch are Tucker (Tucker Carlson) and Hardball (with Chris Matthews. I only watch the show somwtimes, but I find it entertaining.) I can also watch Morning Joe, though, which is there best show in the am hours. Dayside programming sucks, as do Olberman and Dan Abrams. MSNBC relies on Jail Documentaries too much.
CNN sucks too. I can’t watch any show on there. Wolf Blitzer is about as charismatic as a potato. Larry King is a potato. Lou Dobbs is OK, but he is too much a populist. Anderson Cooper is pretty good for a few minutes, until he laughs and sounds like a little girl. The problem with CNN is the catch-phrases. "The Best Political Team in Television" and "Keeping them Honest." They are overused and uncreative. Rely too much on stupid technology.
Fox News is the best. OK, the graphics suck. They have catch-phrases too, but I like them. They have the most Charisma. Brit Hume is a human. He does not rely on fancy and annoying computer animations for election nights. Shepard Smith is a very good anchor. The contributers they have are fun. The network’s personalities are just more human.
Many people rely on the internet, but hte problem is the lack if being able to just sit down and watch a screen for a while. I don’t feel too well after staring at a computer screen for a while.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, Spud has discontinued Inside Cable News. His blogging will be missed. I’m very new to blogging, but I know that it can be a lot of work. Either way, I will keep it under the links in honor of Spud and his great blog, ICN. In the meantime, keep coming to ATM (American Truth Machine) and feel free to comment.
The blog that introduced me to blogging, Inside Cable News, is ending its existance. The blogger, Spud, decided it was time to retire from blogging. He always had a great blog and was on top of things. I could never be so good. For me, this blog is just for fun. I could only hope to have a blog half as good as his.
