Tonight I watched the end of the Republican Convention. I tuned into ABC a known liberal news outlet. I could think of no better way to watch unbiased. A conservative Bastard watching a Republican Convention on a liberal news network. Peter Jennings went to the floor to the various reporters that were amongst the crowds to get reactions etc.
One talked about the last 6 paragraphs of the Presidents speech and how personal it had gotten and that the President had teared up for a moment....and then Peter Jennings had to make a fast quip, "...Made for TV."
I about jumped throught the television as I said aloud.... "PETER JENINGS IS AN ASS!"
Peter Jennings has not hidden his liberal views very well in recent years. But reporting the news is just that. Reporting the news...in an unbiased fashion. This wasn't the Peter Jennings show in which he would certainly be permitted to make commentary. He was covering a news event and I find it highly in appropriate for him to make political jabs in a highly biased way.
No matter if he agrees or disagrees with this president, the man IS STILL THE PRESIDENT and desreves the respect of that office. Even during Clinton's terms I would never have crossed that line during a State of The Union address or any other speech even though I admit I just didnt like the guy. It didnt matter he was still our President.
Peter Jennings should have waited until the next day to make his comments or at least until another news program like perhaps the PETER JENNINGS IM AN ASSHAT Show began. Does the decency and respect for at least the office of President even exist in some people. I am amazed that he feels he has the right to insert opinions into coverage of a news item.
Even CNN has made an attempt to cover the news in a more unbiased fashion than it has int the past and we owe that to the fast success of FOX NEWS. FOX NEWS has grown so quickly by just telling the news like it is. No opinions , just the news.
Im the Big Bastard and PETER JENNINGS IS.... AN ASSHAT
