There may or may not be reasonable justification for CNN to withhold, for 12 years, first-hand information of torture and murder and terror in Iraq. But where there can be no justification is in knowing, beyond doubt, of the brutality of the Hussein regime while still continuing to report on Iraq as if they possessed moral equivillency to the United States, for continually undermining the American effort to save 25 million people from slavery. There can be no forgiveness for that. CNN KNEW, and yet they still refused to report based on what they knew. CNN is finished. Here's an e-mail from a Limbaugh listener that says it all: For over a decade CNN has knowingly hidden the truth about Saddam for years. People have been tortured and killed because CNN hid the truth in order to keep an office open in Iraq. But why? They werent reporting the truth! Read this news executives excuses. His hypocrisy is disgusting... Who's Responsible For More Deaths, Bush or CNN? I want to hear from you liberal cocksuckers on THIS one.61 responses total.

What the problem? CNN was in it for the money, which is a perfectly Republican motivation.
Right scotty..I thought the motives of you liberals were more altruistic.
I certainly read about Saddam's regime from the day he took power. It was in many news media - including CNN. This is just baseless calumny (known as lying).
CNN is not run by liberals. Glad I coulcd clean up that bit of confusion from #3...
re#5: I think it probably depends on where you are in the political spectrum. OBviously there are those that view CNN as part of the "vast right-wing conspiracy".
Old post. And they sell news, if you don't like it, don't buy it. Simple.
Hear,hear.
RE#2 You don't see the problem? You jump on jazz's Bush bashing bandwagon because you feel we were killing innocent people in Iraq. CNN covers up Saddam's murders and with that you don't have a problem? This is the perfect example of a liberal hypocrite. I guess any party that justifies your buttfucking is ok. RE#4 You stupid dipshit. You better do a little investigating before spouting off. CNN admitted to covering up saddam's atrocities. What a stupid fuck you are. RE#% WHAT? CNN is the most liberal network in this nation. You people are fucking STUPID. " OBviously there are those that view CNN as part of the "vast right-wing conspiracy" Only an idiot would think that. Anybody with any savy at all kn ows that CNN is run by a bunch of far-left liberals. RE#7 I don't buy anything those bastards sell. I'm a fox news fan. People need to be informed about the leftist liberal cover-ups before they shoot thier mouth off at the Great President Bush however. You losers piss and moan about the so called "republican cover-ups" When it's one of your own you sweep it under the rug. Well here it is...IN YOUR FACE. Also. I POST WHATEVER I WANT. If you don't like it..FUCK YOU. You don't have to read it. You bastards are no match for me ...even if all you do all day is play with your SPEAK-n-SPELL.
(What a spectacle of a jerk making a fool of himself.)
from #0: > Here's an e-mail from a Limbaugh listener that says it all: > > For over a decade CNN has knowingly hidden the truth about > Saddam for years. Yep, that pretty much says it all. But in case that wasn't enough, there's this: > I'm a fox news fan. Yeah, that clears it up.
RE#10 HaHa...I showed how stupid you are. Is that when I made a "spectacle" of myself. You are one STUPID motherfucker. And tell us...How did you happen to have access to onfo that CNN confessed to covering up? RE#11 The fact that I have been labeled for my taste in news pretty much sums it up to me. You are a liberal jackass. A grammer queen that obfusticates an issue by directing the focus on minor typos. It's only because you lack the intelligence to deal with the salient issue. I've heard your preaching before. It lacks any real merit and therefore can be discarded as easy as you claim mine can be. THE REPUBLICAN PARTY HAS THE POWER NOW..liberal scum ON YOUR KNEES
(What a jerk.)
BOW BEFORE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. You closet queen. Yes rcurl is a wannabe girl. Get ready for 4 more years of republican rule. I may be a jerk...but you jerk off. It's the only way you can get sex.
(Little does he know - very little.)
Fox News = America's own version of Al-Jazeera.
The problem is, sabre, that the form of what you post is so much more interesting than the content that I can't help but prefer to respond to it. I mean, really. If I wanted to talk about issues, do you think I'd involve *you* in the discussion? :)
Of course you wouldn't involve me. I would rip your arguementa to shreads. You would surround yourself with a horde of sycophants that agreed with your every word. Your form isn't much better. Your posts lack any content at all. You lack the ability to debate. Your rebuttals are all ad-hominenistic. i can see that you are a total dumbass. You are probally a social reject that depends on this "forum" for acceptance.

(While just a lot of noisy blather, #18 does show less signs of the frequent jerkiness that eminates from sabre. Congratulations on the improvement!)
Sabre, do you do it on purpose, or is it merely a particularly amusing facet of the universe's tendency toward irony that almost all your posts directed to others would make more sense if you were talking about yourself instead? Oh, and in case you weren't able to figure it out for yourself, the above paragraph translates loosely to "I know you are but what am I?"
What are you..you ask? You are a confused liberal.buttfucking,cocksucking,shiteating,asslicking fool that can't think his way out of a special education class. You are afflicted with down's syndrome. You are an UGLY little dweeb that can't get laid. You are about as humorous as a pay toilet in a dysentary ward.
(Well, a jerk stays a jerk, I guess.)
I once had occasion to read some things written by Sigmund Freud. I remember thinking, as I read, that it was amazing that he had the balls to state as simple facts things that he was quite clearly making up as he went along. Not just things without any evidence, but things for which it was radiantly clear that he had not even bothered to attempt to look for evidence. For some reason, you remind me of that, sabre. :)
Yea flem? But I'm hung like jung
Would people please stop turning every item into a sabre item? I am getting tired of forgetting items.
WEll, these items are entered by sabre...
hahahaha!
yea keesan...why don't you post an interesting thread huh? I am relieving this place of some of it's boredom. If you don't like my methods..well SHOW me a better one. Maybe you like it boring ? I don't know.
i find you pretty fucking boring as well, sabre.
Oh yea....well I haven't heard enough from your sorry ass to make a judgement yet. It's like you're not even THERE!
my sorry ass don't participate in flame wars.
Hey sabre, want me to fuck you up the ass. I hear anal-retentives can benefit from a good ass-fucking.
er....I'll pass on that no-vomit Besides that little piece of vienna sausage that passes for your penis couldn't do much anyways.
Hey, cat viena suasage is vastly underated!!!! ,
RE#32 What a conundrum you are oval. You flame me...call me boring and then you come back and say "my sorry ass don't participate in flame wars" interesting....perhaps you lack the wit.
thanks for the compliment, but calling you boring isn't really a flame imo. personally i don't care if you go or stay, i just think maybe your girlfriend just dumped you or something and you're in dire need of attention. i'm not really trying to start some flame war with you or attack you, but since you so desperately need some sort of self-validation from grex, and think that you've made this bbs more interesting, i'd like to inform you that you have not. i think the advice of going back into previous agora's and checking out some really interesting trolls would benefit you if this is neccessary as part of your "research".
Well.....give me some precise examples and I will be happy to so. Although those "troll" I suspect were just psuedos of board/staff members trying to livin things up 'round here. As far as me not being interesting...well IYHO I'm not. They are plenty of poeple who get thier jollies by dissing me. My fame has spread to m-net where I have never been a member...until last week that is. The members there have started threads about me. Even they believe I'm an old m-netter.
so?
Just pointing out opinions opposed to yours
What a pompous blowhard. Maybe they are getting their jollies, eh?
You're the bigot.
(The CNN cover-up was mentioned in the previous agora. Nothing new here.)
Sabre, CNN is not finished. CNN is still worldwide the world's largest news source. If you go outside the U.S. to Asia or Europe, you'll find CNN International in any hotel. You won't find Fox News Channel or any other news group you consider more politically correct in many places. CNN has a great presence worldwide. And why would you be against CNN anyway, haven't they given great platforms to a wide variety of your beloved conservatives like Pat Buchanan, Robert Novak, Tucker Carlson .etc for years and years? Get off this "liberal media" bs, its not true, it never has been. If you report the news, and tell the truth, you will always have people who refuse to believe the truth and call the reports biased. But if it is still the truth, then it isn't biased, even if you don't agree with it. CNN is run by AOL/TW now, not Ted Turner anymore, it is a corporate entity and does not show a political slant. Unlike Fox News Channel, which is run by Roger Ailes, Reagan's former political advisor, and owned by outspoken conservative Rupert Murdoch, and makes no bones about their bias. You should have more of a problem with Fox News Channel than CNN. Those guys really ARE biased and openly admit it.
CNN "does not show a political slant"? What planet you from?
Yeah, find a news organization without a slant....I don't think you can.
re #46 - The Onion
re#47: Got yah there!
The Onion doesn't have a slant....it has layers.
CNN's slant these days is basically pro-corporate, I think.
RE#47 -- I stand corrected and bow my head in shame.....
CNN is pure fear-propaganda.
FOX tends to be more sensationalist, but CNN is a strong runner-up.
I was subjected to CNN in various airports, and I was struck by how often they felt the need to run their "CNN: The most trusted name in news" promo. Trying to apply the old "oft-repeated lie" principle, perhaps?
Perhaps they saw how many people had swallowed Fox "Fair and Balanced" News' tripe.. As distressing as it is to contemplate, CNN might actually *be* "the most trusted name in news." (which says nothing about their accuracy, just about what television-news viewers are accustomed to accept as reporting.)
CNN was the only station I could find that showed a Hubble photo of Mars tonight. It was *much* better than with my binoculars (which only served to prove that I shake....). I look at CNN headline news to get some idea of what has happened recently of the headline variety, not expecting with a "trusted name" or "fair and balanced". There are other sources that are better for those. My biggest gripe is that there is only maybe 25% "news": the rest is advertising and grandstanding.
Exactly. I use CNN to find out what the heck is going on, and then find may other sources to find out the more indepth "why's".

CNN Healines news still looks like an exploded web page, with news stories put into some mixer and randomly presented.

I usually try the BBC's web page first, then go to CNN's out of desperation if the BBC doesn't have anything about whatever bit of breaking news I'm interested in.
You have several choices:
