MINDLESS MEDIA

Why do the cable newstainment shows think that the public wants to see/hear the former office holders in the Bush administration. I find it insulting. And the heighths of that was reached today by CNN's John King with an interview (no--I did not watch) with Cheney.

I have had this thought before when seeing guests continually on Hard Ball and other such shouting matches, that have committed political- dirty tricks and some of whom have been either indicted or convicted. Like Tom Delay, he's been guesting with regularity.......Newt Gingrich.......multiple personal and public scandals eroding whatever might be accepted as esteem......I've seen him on panels on ABC as well as the cable broadcasts. This list could go on and on for I am certain many members of the viewing audience also have no desire to hear the warped thinking of these has beens.

Usually I would never consider anyone guilty before indictment and conviction, but I will make an exception for Cheney, I consider him guilty because I lived and watched so much of it......and I consider him guilty of multiple crimes.......war crimes as well as defiance of consitutional law in regard to the office he held ......remember that?

Even though I did not watch the King interview, it is hard to avoid hearing about it, just as I tuned in on the 7 pm CNN programming they were featuring a reference and guest commentation about it..........

.......it seems I will be using the internet more and more as a source of news rather than the television.
