Quoting: Anonymous Coward 149921Bullshit. Here is part of the transcript from the May 24, 2006 airing of Countdown. The lead story covered the scandal involving Congressman William Jefferson of Louisiana...who is a Democrat: "But first, Nancy Pelosi and William Jefferson, the minority leader conceding to NBC News today that the Jefferson affair is hindering her ability to beat up the Republicans with the so-called culture of corruption on Capitol Hill, that concern no doubt influencing her decision to ask the congressman, who allegedly kept $90,000 in kickbacks in his freezer, like some leftover lasagna, to give up his coveted seat on the powerful Ways and Means Committee. Quoting the congresswoman‘s letter to him, “In the interest of upholding the high ethical standard of the House Democratic caucus, I am writing to request your immediate resignation from the Ways and Means Committee,” Representative Jefferson wasting little time in telling the minority leader, paraphrasing here, to stuff it, or stuff it in a freezer somewhere. His first reason, to deny the Louisiana congressman a seat on the committee responsible for allocating tax relief and federal funds would unfairly punish his district in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. His second reason, that he is innocent till proven guilty. Quoting his letter to Congresswoman Pelosi, “Such a request would be discriminatory, inasmuch as no other member currently under federal investigation has been asked to step down from a substantive legislative committee assignment. It would also be unprecedented,” he continued, “inasmuch as I have served with members who have been indicted, tried and won their cases, and who were never asked to step aside from their committee assignments during those processes.” What‘s that saying about two wrongs not making a right?"

He knows his history, and the Constitution. Not everyone knows everything about every conspiracy! Maybe he DOES know, maybe he doesn't (re: 9/11 particulars). He should, however, be applauded for what he DOES know and do, on behalf of all of us. |

NBC has reported a major restructuring of news, and other programing. Now they can take him off, and say it's because of the shake-up. The only way I can see to help save Keith is tell everyone to watch, making his ratings too high for them to get rid of him that way. |

Firefly User ID: 10344 United States 10/19/2006 11:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Critics also question the decision to make cuts in news, one of NBC's strongest operations. NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams, Today and Meet the Press handily beat their rivals on other networks. CNBC remains a fountain of cash, although it is struggling with a decline in audience and advertiser interest in business news. NBC Sports is not affected by the plans. It is "a gradual if largely unspoken retreat away from the idea that broadcast networks could brand themselves with the public by being major news-gathering institutions that people would turn to," says Tom Rosenstiel, director of the Project for Excellence in Journalism. "To say that news isn't a growth area and, thus, they want to cut back also raises questions about how major NBC feels it can be in the next generation of online news. News is an emerging business online, a growth business. It is just not a growth business in television." NBC says that view misses the point. "We still very much believe in news," says NBC Universal Television Group CEO Jeff Zucker. "We are acknowledging that the way people consume news is changing, and we've got to change with that." The cuts reflect the company's desire to integrate its operations more tightly and economically. I.E.--let's mess with it until we fuck it up |

Oh yeah .. and every time you try to raise the alarm that oridnary people are being politically persecuted in america, the disinfo perps will jump in and say "but what about olbermann!?" it works quite well ... it's a level of sophistication just enough beyond direct, brutal suppression, that it is very difficult to raise awareness that it's happening. makes you wonder why acknowledged dictators in other countries haven't picked up on the method yet. |
