Friday Cable News Links and Open Thread

Thursday's numbers: Bill-Beck-Hannity 1-2-3.

Attn Jon Stewart: fake fotos on MSNBC!  Today's tweet.

Faber vs Cramer.  Jennifer Griffin battling cancer.

FNC cracks down on youtuber.  Tweets of a twit?

O'Reilly to interview Dobbs.  Lou blew it?  Was he pushed out?  Dobbs '12?  CNN bets on King; their strategy.

Tailgater Shep.  Kurtz's conflict.  J$P Poll results.

Updated through the day.  Use our valuable bandwidth to post your cable news comments in today's open thread.

No, the regulars were not trashing me, at least not in the comments I read. But he was and the intent of the thread was to attack and demean News Hounds. I very much appreciate those who defended us and I'm sorry to disrupt a good debate if you all were enjoying it. but I just won't allow this guy to go there. The moderators have just about had it with him on the mains (or maybe they already have decided he's a "delete on sight" by now, I have forgotten) and I'm not giving him a venue to vent about us. Let him start his own blog or go somewhere else to do that.

BWAAAAAAA!!! Poor baby. It seems that this ECHO guy has hit a nerve. He posts criticism of News Hounds and the overlysensitive Ellen deletes his thread.
 
Instead of addressing the issues that ECHO raises(particularly the issue of News Hounds using IP addresses in an inappropriate way), Ellen, the chief liar at News Hounds, get sall in a huuf and deletes the thread.
 
Well, cry me a river. If the poor whiners can't handle a little criticism they should just shut the hell up.
 
Fools. All of them.

from john t:
 
Hey Chris, where's Fox "News" on that list for "ALL" of cable? Now you're not talking about just cable "news", you said "ALL" of cable. Please provide a link to back up your BS also.
 
If the IDIOT would pay attention: Fox News is number 3 in all of cable!! USA is number 1 (which is owned by NBC-Universal) Didnt that idiot click the link earlier this week when J$ posted the weekly ranker? Guess not. seriously he is so dumb, its laughable. This link john t:
 
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/11/fox-news-nbc-nightly-news_n_353873.html
 
idiot!! and notice the link is to the Huffington post

Re Dobbs
 
the interview will happen after all. With Dobbs gone from CNN, I feel he has more freedom to do whatever he wants and not restricted by CNN

No john t doesn't actually click the links. What, you want him to actually know what he's talking about. One of the reasons he's not posting here is because he lied about this site, saying that most of the links I post are 'right-wing' links. He had a choice to prove that claim or take it back and admit he was wrong if he wanted to post here. But jt never admits it when he's wrong, so he's not posting here by his own choice. It's just doubly ironic that the link in this instance is one from that famous 'right-wing' website, Huffington Post.

Is little johnt at it again??
 
That's what happens when you get led around by the nose by the unions.
 
He probably forget to call the union to get permission to click the link but they laughed at him.
 
As for Ellen, the unrepentant liar, she just has that hypocrisy thing down pat.
 
( OK, little johnt will now write a screed calling me a hypocrit)
Happens every time. You could set your clock by his ignorance.

John T never fails to entertain with his glaring ignorance.

This story is almost unbelievable:
 
MSNBC Uses Fake, ‘Sexy’ Photos of Sarah Palin on Air; Will Network Correct and Apologize?  
 
Will Jon Stewart address this and will the left blogs react to this the same way they did to Hannity's use of video from an earlier event?

Very, very sad to read about Jennifer Griffin. My thought's and prayer's to Jennifer and her family. She has survived battle's before and she CAN and WILL survive this battle too.

Wow, newsbusters server is down due to traffic directed at the "msnbc uses fake pics" link. Jon Stewart will give at full pass, no doubt and msnbc will NEVER apologise or admit to it.

Hopefully Jon will not be biased and take on MSNBC. We will have to wait until next week of course. Since newer shows are Monday-Thursday

and the Fox Haters will never acknowledge the Fox correction or the MSNBC falsehood and non-correction.

I'm sad to read this shocking news about Jennifer Griffin.  
 
With youth and otherwise good physical conditioning on her side, I'm optimistic about her recovery. I wish her all the best and she's now prominently in my prayers.
 
From the serious to the idiotic:
 
Rick Sanchez' lack of gravitas has certainly illustrated why CNN made a wise decision in not promoting him to Dobbs' former position.  
 
Sanchez is number three (right behind Keith Olbermann and David Shuster) on my list of news idiots who aren't merely ideological or partisan, but full-blown hate-mongers, defamers, and smear merchants.

I only have one issue with those fake Palin photos MSNBC aired. All descriptions of the bikini photo claim that she's holding a rifle. It's funny how none of the writers recognize it as an air rifle! A BB gun, what an extremist! :lol:

Only someone that has seen her share of death and misery in covering the war's and Israeli conflict's can come up with this line. "Soooo, she told the room, "as you've heard, I have a tumor that's growing faster than an al-Qaeda cell in Somalia." What a woman!

Thank you for that link, Scott. It shows what a positive attitude Jennifer has. She is a smart, admirable woman and I wish her only the best.

I was watching "Morning Joe" today and while the people at the table were talking they suddently flashed a piece of film of FNC's Major Garrett who looked like he was in Japan, microphone in hand, waiting to do a piece on the president's visit. I thought was strange. No one mentioned a thing about it. Chuck Todd had already been interviewed from Japan about the president's trip.

KSM would fit right in at msnbc with "is calling al-quaeda against the law" mathews and the other terrorist pictured at right. :lol:

I'm sorry, Johnny.
 
I either forgot to check or overlooked your link before I made my comment.
 
I wish Jennifer Griffin the best. Unfortunately, the prognosis for young women with breast cancer can be somewhat problematic.

Thank you FF but can't take credit. It was a follow up link on the link J$ has posted. At stage 3 and the size of her lump Grammie it's a dim prognosis. But she's seen what OUR troop's have fought through to survive and you know she has that SPIRIT in her. And 3 very young one's that will give her the WILL to FIGHT. We each have our destiny planned out before we step foot on this blue marble. It's how we choose to live during the trip to that destiny is how we are thought of and remembered when the road trip is over.

"The moderators have just about had it with him..."
 
Hey Blackfon, when I first read that, I thought they were talking about me! Yeah, Echo has been cleaning their clocks over at Newswoofs, and he uses more logic and reason and facts than I could ever hope to muster. Good to know that Ellen is doing a slow burn over yet another truth-teller.
