Don't you have to phrase your answer in a question on jeapordy
Is that Dems-speak for, "You're right, Vrai, and I am wrong. I see your point and have no idea why I didn't see it until you spelled it out for me" ?

No, there is no Dems-speak language :ohwell: You inserted the jeopardy theme song... I didn't :shrug: I didn't see your point until Tonio very nicely explained it :shrug:

I would suggest that anyone who doesn't see Couric as a left-wing version of Rush Limbaugh should take a bit of time and read Ann Coulter's book "Slander". Everyone heard about the "affiable Eva Braun" remark, but there are dozens and dozens of references to Courics (and Lauer's) leftist view of things.

Tonio said that Katie Couric is too cute and perky to do hard news. That wasn't my point.

I don't like Katie Couric. It's very hard to take her seriously when she always has her head tilted like her hair is too heavy for her. :ohwell:

I noticed that, too. I wondered if she had an ear infection or something.

Would you be happier if it was Rush Limbaugh :shrug: Is it the fact that she has Democratic views or is it the fact that she's not nonopinionated concernining politics :shrug:

Ok. Here is my beef. I am just catching up to this thread.

You are using the famous dem red herring of throwing out a Limbaugh or Hannity. There is a huge difference.

1) The famous conservative mouth pieces do not hide the fact they are just that. They do not try to hide what they are. They scream out who and what they are, their bias, and why they feel the way they do. No viewer has to stop and question where their beliefs come from and why they feel that way.

2) The Courics and Rathers of the world claim they are objective, unbiased, and just reporting "facts". Unknowledgable viewers are lead to believe they are just getting exactly that when they are getting a liberally slanted news piece.

Our guys pull in huge viewership and dems sit and rant and rave about their bias. The thing is ... they wear it on their sleeve. Yet, their viewership is rapidly growing. There is no hidden agenda. There are no questions of loyalty. You know exactly what you are getting. You can't complain about bias when they tell you exactly what theirs is.. up front. You can complain about bias when they are reporting as if they have none.

No.

One hosts an opinion show, where he fully and frankly admits he is a partisan conservative and his intention is to promote the Republicans.

The other is a generic news show host who says she is unbiased and doesn't let her personal political views color her professionalism.

One is honest and upfront about his agenda. The other is a sham and a lie.

This is the problem with playing catch-up. Vrai goes and busts out your arguments before you do... :tantrum:

She's listening to the "voices".

:killingme

How true that probably is. She is probably getting her producer inputs through an ear piece. She does not seem to be the type (from interviews with her) to really think on her feet in interviews. She is a front piece and probably gets her words from backstage.
