I would like to take THIS time to blast the USA media, specifically dan rather and his crew, because that's what I had to watch instead of seeing the browns' win...
there is a tape of bin laden, that dan rather thinks was made prior to these attacks, because bin laden KNEW the attacks would happen at some point
personally, from the tape, I bet it was made on the 11th...or maybe even before, as sources said that it was known something was to happen around that time
his complete vague description of events leads me to believe that..
but
this tape calls for all muslims, in the world, to basically fuck up america, and I think it was saying cut off the head of the president, cause they kept blocking out the part right after "cut the head off of..."
well
they played this tape over three times after the president made his speech
we DO NOT need to give over exposure to Bin Laden's words!
we DO NOT need to give media coverage to any calls to KILL AMERICANS
we DO NOT need to sensationalize what is already a bad and important situation
and finally
my personal, selfish belief, which apparently at least FOX also holds, but CBS does not
..we do NOT need to cut into normal programming just so we can hear three out of touch cronies SPECULATE about how bad the situation is, and exactly how the US will provide aid to the afghani people that do not directly oppose the USA
and we do not need said SPECULATION during normal NEWS airtime, either
for it only serves to sensationalize, and to add FEAR to the viewers' minds
what's annoying is that FOX is built on sensationalized crap, yet even THEY aren't pulling that shady bullshit
...what's CBS' deal?
