Juan Williams Defends Yearlykos on Faux...and Wins?!

by F. Vyan Walton Page 2 of 5 page(s)

Uh, what? Let me get this straight, Hillary thinks she's popular but really isn't compared to Edwards - but then Kucinich is more popular than she is, and I suppose Edwards is, or something.

I guess they haven't completely worked out the Hillary is a Far-Lefty and therefore the Far-Left must love her, except for all the other people they like better - like Obama, Edwards and even Gore!

According to the results of this Dkos Poll on who won the Yearlykos Presidential Debate, currently (after 600 votes) Edwards wins it handily with 37%, Barack is in second with 27%, Hillary is in third with 17% and Kucinich is in a distant fourth with 5%.

It's amazing to me that this guy actually attended Yearlykos and didn't event notice that we don't really like the Hillary very much. Simply stunning.

Just look at some of these diaries.

Now we know that this Moran character isn't exactly the sharpest fork in the drawer if he hasn't noticed the enormous ambivalence for Hillary among the Netroots over her Iraq War Vote. I should know, I've tried to defend her vote here on Kos and it wasn't pretty.

Then you had Malkin's next leading question.

Malkin: Did you see a lot of "9-11 Truth" types, y'know the conspiracy theorists?

Moran: No, no. I've made a point of asking a lot of people - a lot of the bloggers there - these are not really - I wouldn't say radical leftists in the sense that they - uh - they're conspiracy mongerers and so forth. These are the mainstream netroots. Which is still far-left, but not way out there like the truthers,

Malkin: Mmm

Yeah, well that might be because presenting conspiracy theories on Kos is a bannable offense. But let's not belabor - y'know - The FAQ. Nice, sleuthy detective work on your part there - Moran.

They of course, as I expected, had to mention the Sergaent Aguina kerfuffle and announce that the Moran will have an exclusive interview with him on The Factor tomorrow. Oh joy.

Then she, finally, turned to Juan.

Malkin: I take it you don't think it was a mistake for these Presidential Candidates to go to this convention?

Williams: Not at all, gosh, in fact it's part of the media landscape right now. It's part of American politics, what goes on, on the blogosphere. "Michellemalkin.com". In fact, what you see there is often cutting edge in terms of the debate that helps shape the policies and determines who's going to be the winning candidate on both Republican and Democratic tickets this year.

So far so good - in fact, maybe a little too good as Malkin narrowed in.

My 2 cents

1. Juan Williams is a hired Republican operative or at least a "Republican Apologist" ( as well a classic Uncle Tom! )

2. Shame on you for even tuning into FOX! Even if you aren't watching the sewage they spew - by tuning your set to their channel you add to their viewer stats.

Educate yourself about how TV programming works: the business model is designed to deliver viewers (you) TO the advertisers, all that crap (any crap, they don't care) between commercial blocks is the "bait." The more sets they have tuned to, nibbling at, their "bait" - the more they can charge for delivering viewers to the advertiser's messages.

There is a huge business keeping track (search Nielsen or Arbitron for example) of what your TV or radio is tuned to - even if you're not watching or paying attention to it.

You want to hurt FOX? Block them.

I don't want to "Hurt Fox"

I'm glad they're there - so we can keep an eye on the right-wing.

<>The last thing we need is for them to go underground, I'd rather have their playbook open and visible to all. It saves greatly on speculation.

Juan the Fox

I remember listening to Juan williams on "public" radio once when a caller

aked him if was on the Fox payroll at the time. Juan, a so-called public broadcasting "liberal" admitted on air that this was so. What a weasel.

Mail carrier who drives the rest of my colleagues nuts with my politics.
ScottMail carrier who drives the rest of my colleagues nuts with my politics.

Well, duh!

Juan Williams works at Fox News; therefore he receives a paycheck from them. Nothing wrong with that. I supposedly could sneer at Keith Olbermann, "well' you're just on the MSNBC payroll!" . (Actually, I will never have the chance to sneer at him, because Olbermann never allows criticism on his show.) But such a sneer would make no sense. Olbermann receives a paycheck from MSNBC; that's the free market at work. Side note: Kudos to Michelle Malkin for keeping the flashlight on hate sites like Daily Kos and Democratic Underground.

56 year old African American middle class worker who usually votes Democrat )I voted for a Republican exactly ONCE). Moderate in most opinions (I think). Atheist.

We need to watch False Noise

To know what the enemy is thinking.

But Juan Williams at least offers a different opinion from the usual neoclowns on "False Noise Sunday", and he sometimes wins. Better than these Rethugs going completely unchallenged! That's why it and "False Noise Watch" are the only shows I watch on that network.
