Typical WND crap.

How does "Very rarely did we communicate through the press anything that we didn't absolutely control," become an admission that "we control the news media"?

It is different because he is not "MY" guy. If it was "MY" guy this would be good and holy. But since it is not "MY" guy all actions are the epitome of evile. Even if he does the same thing as "MY" guy.

...and that's a good thing, until some sort of Federal Shield Law makes it legally impossible to debunk seditious lies, or to plug leaks in the National Security apparatus.

I'm for less secrecy--not more--but there will always be the need for secrets, and there will always be those willing to broadcast them for profit or to grind a politcal axe.

Uncharted territory, this interweb thing.

And you liberal types don't see a certain amount of arrogance in coming right out and saying that they are censoring the information that they are feeding the press and having reported on? As far as multiple threads, ITN and P/CP are worlds apart.

There is an ocean of difference between controlling the message of a political campaign and "censoring the media." If you can show me an instance of the Obama crowd censoring the media, feel free to bring it up. Until then, I'll consider you misguided and your thread silly for the reasons I posted in the ITN thread.

MichaelSavage now that's where you're going to find the news. Just type in his name and add a dot com and you're there. And you won't find this information anywhere else.

Too many feelings of sympathy associated with sick puppies. A sick F&^% is more appropriate.

It would be more credible if the citation for quotes were provided. Broadcasting ones own "impressions" of others "impressions" leads to depressing inacuracy. M Savage, like Cris Matthews is a commentator, but "without tingles coming up his leg when he hears obama talk" and I quote from a first hand monitoring of the show, in which Chris stated his tingling leg sensation. Commentators mix news (usually second hand quotes of news organizations') with commentary.

I've edited the post to add sources. The clips and vids are all over, but YouTube is down for maintenance at this moment---I still didn't have any trouble finding other sources...or his campaign to raise donations to cover legal costs--he's feeling censored because he doesn't seem to get that while his tirades are protected, they don't come without a price when someone else owns the soapbox.

Poor, poor, Michael Wiener.

I know that others have debunked this right wing article, but the truth is that it was a campaign comment about controlling their "campaigns" message, not controlling the media. Dunn made the comment before Obama took office.

A small amount of research answers most questions.

Angel/Devil Since he's quite happy to tell you how much he's making off his show and "Books" deals, the only "poor" things about him are his tastes and his thoughts... Cool
