What did you think of the news coverage of last nite's VP debate. You watched it and developed your own opinion about the participants during the telecast. Then immediately afterward the EMSM began working to change your opinion to be more in line with their opinion. The EMSM continued the same path with the morning shows.
It's almost noon the day after. Did the EMSM approach work on YOU??? Did you stick to your original opinion developed while viewing the debate, or have you been swayed by the arguments of the commentators??? Come on now, be honest, can you honestly say you have the same opinion you did while watching the debate???
If you're a regular morning/evening news viewer, you know you have your favorite TV personalities. You believe what they say because you watch 'em every day...they must be right! "They tell me what happened, why wouldn't I believe them?"
OK now, review your immediate opinion while watching last nite and contrast it with what you think right now...are you an independent thinker, or one of the herd that's swayed regularly by the EMSM?
Ponder it.

I accidentally found myself watching the channel that Katie Couric is on (because I stuck with the same channel after Survivor ended), but when I heard her voice I instantly clicked to another channel, only to see they had Geraldine Ferraro giving her commentary, and saying if Sarah Palin mentioned energy one more time she was going to be sick.
Oh puhlease.
Good column
Katie Couric thinks she is the queen of night time TV. The network wanted to remove her after only a few months but she had approximately a 7 million dollar a year contract so they kept her on.
Her grilling of Sarah Palin last week was pathetic. After the debate another journalist (?)said she did well and Katie gave him a drop dead look as he said when she was grilled by someone on TV last week, she did not do well because of the grilling by the not so nice person. She was not about to be complained about. She can give it out herself but cannot take it herself.
Come on Queen Katie, all you do is read what is written for you. Not worth the millions and CBS knows that now but a contract is a contract so we are stuck with you.
