He's just trying to illustrate the point how the liberal news media is in bed with the socialist left aka Democrats. Let's see...ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN...nuff said....

Wow. Somebody needs to get a life.

I cannot believe that anybody would spend the time it takes to try and spin something like this into an attack on the media.

If Sarah Palin ever decides to show up for an interview with an obviously adversarial interviewer the way Obama did when he sat down with O'Reilly for a full length interview then I don't care if they make her out to be a 140 foot tall lean mean political heavyweight, her answers and illiterate responses will still doom her to the file 13 of political wannabes.

The ABC Interview was softball and she still couldn't get it right. Heaven help her if she ever has to do a real interview.

I agree completely. This is just some idiot trying to spin doctor everything to make it look like there's a conspiracy against the Republicans.

Lets face it the interview was so bad ... I suggest she not do another one and i am pro McCain/Palin.

As for the name calling ... that's uncalled for Blacklight. Subman is just posting his slant on things ... this is just a message board, not a dart board.

I got the impression he was calling the author of the article, not Subman an idiot.


...come to think of it...which part of:
"just some idiot trying to spin doctor everything to make it look like there's a conspiracy against the Republicans"
made you think of Subman?

To be honest, the fault here lies with Palin's people. This is TV Production 101.

All they did was use an old gramatical trick of making the interviewer more visually imposing than the interviewee.

The first thing the Palin folks should always do in any interview situation is check the shot. That means check that her eyes will be at the same level as the interviewer, and that the camera shooting her is a reasonable distance from her and is using a tight lens rather than a less flattering wide angle lens.
