Ted Koppel tells Sean Hannity he is bad for America

WTF is "Sham Hammity?" You can't do any better than that?

 

But he is a left wing "journalist". That means he is little more than an operative for the DNC. Intelligent people trust left wing journalist as much as they trust a rabid skunk!!!!!

 

Hammity's major fault is not being too bright and selling dumbed down commentary as "news" to people who don't read newspapers and don't want any "news" that they aren't pre disposed to believe.

No one tuned Hannity in to learn anything. That's not his act.

 

Ted Koppel is an old Marxist who still thinks America should be ruled/fooled by the Mainstream News Networks that have always been Left of Center.

Koppel was never in the military, and has really no business either making comments about anymore than Hannity.

The old Media Circus is folding up their tents and leaving town. Koppel's act is about over.

 

Do you wish to silence everyone who disagrees with Ted Koppel, too?

 

Obama never was in the military and he was the Commander-in-chief of our armed forces and bombed 7 Muslim countries and ordered more drone strikes than all previous Presidents combined. Go figure.

 

Well, everyone's take is different. As for me, I can't bear to watch him because he comes close to making a point and then winds up getting everyone on the panel yelling over one another. Then it's on to the next almost point and more yelling. I mean, I get more edification from a completely deceptive commentary than from Hannity's perpetual chokes. That's not to knock him....but just that he makes me crazy. Heck maybe others know exactly what he means, his points, and why he changes course before docking. But I sure don't. I need edification.

 

So? That's a good thing. Opinion should not be misconstrued as news, don't you agree?

 

I already asked you this once, and you ignored me. Will you again?

Who decides what is truth and how it should be disseminated?

 

Do journalists make it a habit of injecting themselves into the story? This wasn't journalism, it was opinion pushed as a "news story". Why only hate on Hanity when clearly CBS is in a similar situation as Hanity. Oh that's right it's your kind of bias

 

Truth? I should say facts. The two are not mutually inclusive, and I ought to know better.

FACTS are facts, no matter what people decide. News should not present opinions as facts.

 

Not if they can help it. Hannity, O'Reilly etc do it as a matter of policy (dictated on the Second Floor).

 

Who disseminates facts?

Here is a fact for you: The US dropped atomic bombs on Japan, killing around 170,000 Japanese.

Right?

 

That is a fact. Right now who the hell knows who disseminates facts, it certainly isn't the news media, or Sean Hannity, for that matter, or Maddow, Olbermann, Alex Jones...

....news media should not be "opinion."

 

Keep telling yourself that. Was this a news story or an opinion piece? Clearly an opinion piece pushed to sway public perception. But how can that be it's CBS, they're "journalists".

 

I think there might be more to it than that. But that's all I choose to present, since no one is allowed to change or question it.

 

Question what? The figure is most likely not correct, but the fact remains that the US did drop Nuclear Weapons on the Empire of Japan, 2 of them, one on Hiroshima, one on Nagasaki.

Do you deny that this happened? Is this another holohoax?

 

Question my version of the truth.

 

If you are "pro-free speech" then you must allow all speech, not just the speech you like.

 

I agree, but not on NEWS networks. Put them on Polemicist Central, or some other network.

 

I am questioning if you deny the United States dropped nuclear weapons on the Empire of Japan.

 

A cheap right-wing hack like Hannity can't carry Ted's jockstrap when it comes to journalism.

A little surprised that a man of Ted's stature would even sit down with a clown like Hannity...

 

I control the facts and you can't challenge them.

You can't ask if the bombs arguably saved lives, both US and Japanese. You can't ask what political party made the decision. You can't ask anything at all, because maybe Ted Koppel and I decide what the facts are, and how to disseminate them.

 

Grow up, and stop acting like a tyrannical child. Facts are facts, has nothing to do with who controls them.

News should present facts, not opinions.

Your view is mediocre, as was your little game.

 

Ha ha ha I have called Limbaugh "the Drug Addict with a Radio Show" for a long time how.
