The hell is Matt Lauer doing there divorcing up blue holes from other bodies of water with coral reefs?

Hmm, I wonder who this is skewering... Couric? Lauer? Gifford? Rippa? Viera? Take your pick.

^yup. /sigh

and what's almost worse, they're transparently shitty at covering anything up.

gonzales "simply can't recall" a goddamn thing.
cheney is just not a member of the executive, when it suits his purpose.

bush is confronted with his approval of waterboarding,
by no less a journalistic giant than... Matt Lauer??

if you're going to be evil, at least be evil geniuses please??
this is pathetic.

wumpus, Bush DID react in a similar fashion. Did you not see the interview? Did you not see Bush get up in Matt Lauer's face when Lauer kept asking for an answer to his question?

Who's getting the soft treatment now?

And for the record, I hate ALL biased journalism, whether it is Liberal or Conservative. Fox News IS slanted, in the tank, and racist. Ratings don't mean their journalism is correct...it means they are pandering to the lowest common denominator.

Lowest commen denominator. Think about that.

"I HATE FOXNEWS!!!!! How can these people live with themselves?????"

I get such a laugh everytime I hear someone say something like this. Just because FOX doesn't play by the same rules as CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC et al., they all accuse them of being slanted, in the tank, racist or whatever. Of course it doesn't mater that FOX beats them all in ratings every night of the week, I'm sure their indignation is purely professional in the principles of broadcast journalism..

Secondly, they WERE legitimate questions and it's obvious that he doesn't like talking about it. I'm not glossing over the fact that both Clinton and Bush have made their mistakes, but Clinton continually gets the soft treatment from the media. He accused the interview of being a Republican hit job and his behavior shows nothing less of a temper tantrum on camera. I don't remember there being this kind of a reaction when Matt lauer questions Bush about torture.

Lastly, watching this should give you an aneurysm, considering it comes from Media Matters.

I'm so glad that when bloodthirsty terrorists are caught, they have Matt Lauer and his ilk to stand up for their rights.
