Why Didn't MSNBC & CNN Carry The Historic Chris Christie Speech Last Night?

[Jarhead]

Isn't it funny what the media doesn't cover

...the Solyndra loan was a multiyear process that was started by the Bush administration in 2007. While one of the investors in Solyndra is George Kaiser, an Obama contributor, another large investor is Madrone Capital Partners, an investment firm funded by the Walton family (Walmart) and a long-time large contributor to Republican causes.

what I put in bold.
Please explain to me something.
The loan process was started under the Bush administration, but not approved by that administration as there were concerns of the viability of the loan

On the other hand it was approved by the Obama administration despite the aforementioned cfiancnail concerns.

So please tell me why that part about the Bush administration is newsworthy?

Furthermore.....and I really dont know so I am truly asking...

You cite that the Obama supporter was "one of the investors" and then continue to cite that a GOP supporter was a "Large" investor.

Now, we know that Kaiser invested 75 Million. Are you saying that Madrone Capital invested substantially more? DO you know the amount?

Im watching Chrissy and Sargeant Schultz this week, but so far neither has brought up the Obama-Gate scandal, actually,neither have brought up any of the recent Obama scandals, they seem to devote their programs bashing the GOP candidates who look like they're not going to win at this point. Chris and Ed may as well ridicule Tim Pawlenty, they seem to be avoiding all of the current issues!

Back to the topic of this thread.
Personally, I'd like to see Christie throw his hat in the ring and wouldn't have any problem voting for the man.
But, non-presidential candidate Christie giving a speech does not warrant national coverage. If so, Fox News, CNN and MSNBC would have non-stop speeches by actual presidential candidates and un-declared presidential candidates going 24/7. Do people really want that?

Why was it historic?
Im thinking it most likely wasn't historic at all.

Can SOMEONE please answer this question. Perhaps even the OP? What was historic about it?

well when watching the 1am rerun of sargaent schultz, he didn't waste anytime beating up President Christie! it's like, no matter what any of the GOP candidates say that is actually true, ed schultz and chris matthews will find a way to make them look like evil republicans who want to kill all the old people and jews!

Nobody is trying to portray the GOP as evil.. They portray themselves as stupid more often than we want to see it.

Sad really. Pathetic.

Do you bother reading any posts around here or watching the news at all?

For once, Im in agreement with you. It's just a speech.

 

[Avatar4321]

Why do you think the right can be protrayed as evil?

Because the American people dont like their stances on letting people die for lack of insurance and chearing killing people while BOOING men at war.

You crashed the economy, you left us neck deep in war and now you are demanding the same damned ideas be used again so we can recieve another great big helping of more failure.

How many times do your ideas have to fail in real life before you will get some new ideas that might work????

My point exactly. Sarah, do you just ignore bilge like this?

Even MSM can only take so many tired cliches. If Christie were rated by a "Useless Slogans, Spin, and other Meaningless Cliches Machine," the machine would have broken down. Any idea, historians out there, who can tell us when 'entitlements' took on the pejorative meaning it has today?

What was so historic about a New Jersey Governor declaring he is not a candidate for President? All that was needed was to report it on the news, not carry the live announcement. Governors in 49 other states make announcements all of the time, but we don;t see them live on TV doing it.

Oh Comon Guys, Can't you tell I was being Sarcastic? I was mocking how the Media defined so many of Obama's speeches to be Historic, god,over the last 3 years it was getting pathetic,it was like the media used the term "Historic" for everything Obama did! The Historic Health Care Bill,,the Historic Speech In Egypt,,and in the beginning it was "The Historic Presidency Of Obama",,you know, there is nothing historic about Obama being President, he hasn't accomplished anything, just goes on vacation alot as the nation continued to tank into another depression.

The last thing the left wants are independents who dont know Christe to check him out. Was no surprise CNN and MSNBC stuck with the same boring canned crap that has their ratings in the cesspool.

 

[RunPerryRun]

say it aint so! is obama giving another speech today to students? will he tell them that he has already borrowed about $25,000 from each of them to help pay for his re-election campaign and to help spread socialism?

 

[Quantum Windbag]

Let's hear some excuses why our favorite cable news channels ignored the awesome speech given by Governor Christie last night.

And to think that every time O'Bozo makes a speech near a "Confounded Bridge" or at a 6% unemployment town,MSNBC Stops The Presses and interrupts Contessa or Al Sharpton to hear the Modern day Abe Lincoln make his weekly speech ABOUT NOTHING IMPORTANT !

What the fuck made the speech historic?

 

[Jarhead]

Historic?

It was a key note speach in the Reagan Library by a first term governor.

It was by no means historic and if it were given at any other time other than the Hannity show, even Fox wouldnt have aired it.

Yes, it was interesting...and as a consertvative, I liked what he had to say.

But no, it was not historic. Come back to earth.

 

[rdean]

I like Christie for call people who disagree with him for nominating a Muslim Judge "ignorant" and "crazy". He was talking directly to the Republican base. Hilarious. They ain't gonna like it.

 

[RunPerryRun]

I don't know whats more historic, The Obama Commemortive Plates,The Obama Three Dollar Bill,The Obama Fake Silver Dollar, The Obama Toilet Paper, Or The Historic Joy Ride of Air Force One Hovering Over New York City to get a photo of the Statue Of Liberty.

Local news report this morning. (I am paraphrasing)

Anchor: Would the public elect a fat man?
Reporter: If people get too nasty, it could backfire. That's what happened with the Corzine ads.
Anchor: Suppose they (we, the left) make it a health issue?
Reporter: That could work.

Substance means nothing to these people. Yet, they continue to call the right "bigots". Hypocrisy at its best.
