You can't be serious! The Huffington Post is the National Enquirer of news journalism!
That's like reading about Racial tolerance in the KKK Gazette! LMAO!!!

I am not condoning him doing this. But even if he is. Isn't this like the pot calling the kettle black? Who in the media doesnt do this. I think it was well documented that the interview of Palin with that Katie chick was chopped up to make her look worse than it was. The media does this all the time. The worst on the planet is Michael Moore (not that he is media).

palin does not need any help looking stupid, was it even possible to improve the way she would look in that interview? i think not. i disagree with your assertion and challenge you to provide evidence!

i will not dispute that the media spins, that is obvious! i would say however that rarely does it rise to the egregious level hannity achieves regularly! if you can show me how palin was made to look worse than she would have anyway i will be shocked!!

I think with your dislike for her there is nothing I could show that would change your opinion. Just like with GWB. You whole heartely hate the man and nothing anyone can say about him will change that. And that is your right

my feelings are based on evidence provided by a persons actions and words. i am a very tolerant person and i try hard not to prejudge anyone. your politics are only slightly different from either of those two and i have no animosity towards you. i love mike huckabee and john mccain, though i could vote for neither. politics alone is not enough for me to dislike anyone! i judge people on what they say and do. i judge those two on their obvious ignorance and even more on their willful ignorance! it is one thing to be dumb, it is quit another to present yourself as a leader with answers when you don't even know the subject! if either show me ANY intellect whatsoever i will admit it! but i am not holding my breath! one of the things i like the most about Obama is the fact that he openly solicits opinions of everyone, especially 'experts' before making decisions and if he doesn't know something he says so. it is refreshing after two terms of a president who openly rejected science!!

They have time constraints on every tv show. That segment of the show is called, "Hannity's America." It usually airs 20 minutes after the show begins. Its a quick take of what's in the news. The entire segment lasts about 5 minutes, if that? news.http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,531407,00.html Gosh Ark! Do you actually think they show all of Rush Limbaugh's controversial comments on MSNBC? They usually take a 10 to 15 second clip form his show, & they run with it. Again .... Its edited out for time constraints. Its the main reason why, Limbaugh has is show transcribed every day. Furthermore, Media Matters is a liberal organization. If you don't belief me: mediamatters.org/p/about_us/

I worked at a radio/tv station before. Even if it was a high school radio/tv station. Not every high school is fortunate to have one.
Every segment on your newscast is timed to the exact second. Depending on what local station you watch, its always the same time the weather forecast, the local sports is on. Give or take a few seconds, depending on how fast the anchor reads the material on the teleprompter. Its very rare, they go over the alloted time for each segment.
If you don't belief me? Look at the clock every night when you watch the local news. I guarantee, your local sportscast comes on every night at the same time.
One more thing, why should I offer an apology for someone else's comments? When they weren't mine in the first place.
As for the SC Gov. Mark Sanford: Would I offer an apology to his wife for her husband's actions? Nope. Its not going to happen. Mark Sanford is a dumbass for cheating on his wife. For that matter, so is "Slick Willie," & Senator Ensign a dumbass. Where's Larry Craig, nowadays?
They must of thought, they weren't going to get caught!!

i am not looking for an apology scorp, "being an apologist" is just an expression i use) but it would be nice to see you you call a spade a spade instead of trying to make less of it than what it is. BTW i worked in broadcasting for a couple of years as a DJ so i know what you are speaking of - THIS IS NOT THAT!!
