The Bullshitters of the Business Press

Keep in mind, readers, that this woman thought Sarah Palin Won Debate (I did not).

Ah, what is one more hit to the NON-EXISTENT CREDIBILITY of AmeriKa's MSM?


"Is frantic TV coverage giving us the business?" by Joanna Weiss, Globe Staff | October 5, 2008

TV? That's ALL SHIT -- which is why that set over there is OFF!!!!

We're conditioned to turn to our television sets in times of crisis - to get our news updates in visceral, visual real time - and more often than not, TV delivers.

As an AGENDA-PUSHING PIECE of SHIT!!!!!

It's a live-action thrill on election night, a collective way to experience the start of a war or the path of a hurricane. So it seemed natural to turn to the television this past week or two, as the nation's finances rolled under a bus and Congress debated a bailout plan.

Is it just me, or does anyone else find that passage COMPLETELY DISGUSTING?!

But one thing became clear amid the breathless, wall-to-wall financial coverage: business news isn't regular news. Watching a financial crisis play out on TV isn't the same as watching an anchor in a slicker getting buffeted by high winds. Because in this case, the anchor can affect the direction of the storm. Or speak in a language you may not understand. Or get so caught in the market's momentum that it's hard to tell political analysis from panic.

Yup, wees so stoo-pid out here that we don't even know when wees being raped!!!

Fuck you, you elite scum (and a JEW at that, sigh)!!!!!!!!!!!!! PFFFFT!

Comedy Central's Jon Stewart has made great fun of anchors and reporters who struggled to explain the crisis to the common man: He scoffed when CNN declared that $700 billion would buy each American 2,000 McDonald's apple pies. It was hardly the only oversimplified analogy to hit the airwaves; on the CBS "Early Show" last week, financial correspondent Vera Gibbons set up a row of giant dominoes with labels like "Credit Crunch," "Home Values," and "Panic," then proceeded to knock them down. "That's depressing," was the commentary from host Julie Chen.

It is known as PUSHING an AGENDA!!!!!!

Credit crunch, huh?

See: U.S. Banks Driving Credit Crunch ON PURPOSE!!

Bush Administration Created Credit Crunch Crisis

Have you HAD ENOUGH of the MSM BULLSHIT yet?!!!!!!!!!!

If the networks reduced things to kindergarten level, the cable business networks often had the opposite effect.

Yup, 'cause WEES CHILDRUN OUT HERE -- children who are going to GUT and CUT you fucking STINK SHIT ELITE LIARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Between the technical jargon, stock tickers and crawls, and as many talking heads as could be crammed into one screen (the top count appeared to be eight), a fairly straightforward credit crisis came across as something that requires an MBA to understand, and a jug of Pepto-Bismol to survive. Monday's precipitous Dow Jones drop brought doomsday talk. A full day later, a CNBC graphic trumpeted joy: "DOW'S BEST DAY IN SIX YEARS."

That fixation on the markets is a weakness of TV business channels, says Dean Starkman, managing editor of The Audit, the business-press section of the Columbia Journalism Review. "They don't really cover business news," Starkman says. "They basically cover the stock market. One is a subset of the other. But to equate the two is insane."

To the average viewer, the frenzied coverage of highs and lows can erase much sense of meaning, says Andrew Leckey, director of the Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism at Arizona State University. "The events of the last week were so fast-moving that just keeping up with what was happening was enough for television," says Leckey, a former TV business reporter. "It tended to be a little bit like being embedded. When you're riding in a tank taking over Iraq, it's a different feeling than if you're thinking about it a week later."

That is the AmeriKan MSM for you -- IN BED with CORPORATE CONTROLLERS and AGENDA-DRIVING ZIONIST SHITS!!!!

Of course, there is some comfort in seeing that the business reporters knew what - and who - they were talking about. On Wednesday, CNBC anchor/reporter Becky Quick was on the air, describing Warren Buffett's deal to invest in General Electric, when she suddenly announced that she had to take a phone call. From Buffett. Who was on an airplane at the time. The camera lingered on her, talking into her receiver.

Yeah, Buffet is on the INSIDE of this thing, which means he is going to make GOBS MORE DOUGH while YOU SUFFER, 'murkns!!!!

See: Buffet's Buffet and Goldman Sachs' Government Loot Grab.

No wonder Buffet bailed out Goldmans!

A few minutes later, CNBC managed to get Buffett's voice on the air, and Quick exhorted him to pitch the bailout to average Americans. "It's a rescue plan for the American economy, not for Wall Street," Buffett said.

So, THAT PIECE of SHIT Buffet is a FUCKING LIAR, too! Oh, would I love to rip this guys heart out of his chest when I see him in hell!!!!!!

And then I will EAT IT in front of him!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most anchors and reporters seemed to agree, but translating that message proved a challenge.

Not once the White House told them what to say: MSM Word Games

Fox Business News anchor Alexis Glick, the network's vice president for business news, said that by mid-week, she had learned lessons about how to translate financial ups and downs into practical terms. "Sometimes we've been caught up in the mechanics of this story," Glick said by phone on Wednesday from New York. "We just get too inside the minutiae of the arguments that are going on internally between Wall Street and congressional members and economists. Our job is to deliver this to every single taxpayer . . . and maybe if people like me, just as much as people on Capitol Hill, did a better job describing this 12 days ago, maybe things would have moved a bit more quickly."

Translation: SHE and the rest of the "business" press WORK for the WALL STRET LOOTERS and are MOUTHPIECES for the GOVERNMENT!

They are NOT LOOKING OUT for YOU, readers!!!

Please see: The Wall Street Bailout Bought America Nothing

And DON'T YOU WISH the MSM had been SO THOROUGH regarding the LIES that got us into IRAQ?

Yeah, yeah, I know, readers.

The line between business and politics has been a tricky one.

Especially when you are TRYING to SELL the American people SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

FBN contributor Eric Bolling says viewers have "flooded the system" with questions and complaints about the bailout package; he received 2,000 e-mails during an unscheduled weekend special. "It's our job to say, 'Hey, look, whether you believe it's tied to you or not,' " the financial crisis affects you, he said. "The expansion in your town may not be able to take place because they can't afford the financing." --more--"

Readers, need I even respond to this OUTLANDISH bunch of BULLSHIT?!

So the guy just admitted that the MSM's job IS AGENDA-PUSHING LIES!!!!!!!

And THAT is why the TV remains OFF!!!!!!!!!!
