Liberals, I have a question for you

Posted on by

Flash back 8 years. What would you think of Fox News if they sold t-shirts gushing over newly elected George Bush?

You’d call them the right wing biased scum they are! Right?

Of course this is just a rouse of sorts. I ask because this is exactly what CNN is doing. No, not selling Bush fanboy shirts, but Obama ones.

So, what do you think of CNN?

  2. There are almost no legitimate news outlets left in America today and thats sad. That hardly anyone seems to care,or even notice is even sadder. I voted for Obama. I like to hear good things said about him, and bad things said about those who oppose him….so i watch MSNBC, but i dont kid myself that its journalism. You’d actually get more objectivity in a local sportscast

  3. Thanks for you post and honesty jayjay. Too many conservatives won’t admit that Fox News is biased. The same way a lot of liberals won’t admit other “news” programs slant the other way. I’m moderately conservative, therefore I watch an admittedly biased Fox News. But I’m not brainwashed by it.

  4. The link is broken now. CNN has been selling headline shirts for a while, though — not just for the inauguration, but for any news story.

    If Fox had been doing that in 2000, and decided to make a special section for inaugural shirts, I don’t think that would’ve been biased either. Inaugurations are big news, and you don’t have to be partisan to admit that this one was bigger news than usual.

    Maybe I’m missing something about the shirts they were selling, though. Do you have a link that still works?

  5. The link still works. Even if they had been selling headline shirts all along, these aren’t news headlines, they are giddy gushing lines more suitable for TMZ.

  6. Can you give some examples of these “giddy gushing lines”?

    I’m still getting “PAGE NOT FOUND”, whether I click the link in your post or the “Inaugural” link on CNN’s shirt page.

  9. Ah. Yeah, those are headline shirts. Collecting the popular inaugural headlines together on one page is, at worst, catering to their customers: I suspect they were selling plenty of those even before they were categorized.

    (Especially “Obamas juggle inaugural balls”… *snicker*)
