Blogger's Commentary:
We’re going to attempt a little humor tonight because AC360 was so ridiculous
that either you laugh or you bang your head against the wall. The first 25 minutes of Wednesday’s AC360’s
focused on the lack of an FBI presence in Benghazi. This, of course, was ‘Breaking News’. Does anyone else think of Chicken Little and
the sky is falling when they see the Breaking News banner night after night?
But we digress, sorry. So who did Anderson have on representing the program’s ‘many points of view, so you can make up your own mind about the news’(see
AC360 masthead if this reference eludes you)?
No less than TWO Republican Senators, a former Republican administration
member and then a follow up with Rudy Giuliani, you guessed it…another
Republican. Oh yes, there also was a
writer from the Daily Beast and a former CIA agent, neither of whom had defending
the Obama administration at the top of their ‘to do’ list. Not one, and we repeat, NOT ONE Democrat,
member of the Obama Administration or State Dept. representative (
which may be because they are still 'disgusted' with Anderson/CNN and not
willing to come on his program). If any
of our wonderful readers would like to explain to us how this is ‘fair and
balanced’ reporting we’d love to hear it.
Until then we’ll just say that
Anderson Cooper and AC360 hit an all time low tonight when it comes to fair and
balanced.
And on a another note when Cooper said ‘Our sources
said….’ the first thing that popped into
my mind was ‘Did CNN find another journal?’.
Sadly, it’s going to take us a
while to get past tonight’s program and last week’s debacle.
