Cartel You Guys: The Media Has a Full-Blown Embargo on Soledad O'Brien's Ethnic Purge

Not.

Single.

Media.

Organization.

Covered.

This.

Story.

Why? Because they all might work for Jeff Zucker at some point; so they protect themselves by protecting their own.

In addition, they all believe that values they push on others ought not apply to themselves. They are there to transmit virtue, not act according to it.

Scandalous.

There would be nothing more embarrassing to the media than a conservative guest confronting them with this, out-of-nowhere, on the Sunday shows.

26 The reason they don't cover it is because CNN is on its deathbed. If they remind their viewers/reader/listeners about CNN, they fear they may go check them out.

We NEVER mentioned any other radio station back in the day, ever. One, we didn't want to give them free advertising or a reason for our listeners to go listen to them. And two, the owner would have shitcanned us because of number 1.

Just passed a car with a silver haired lady in it.

On the trunk were 4 stickers.

1. "Obama/Biden"
2. the equal sign, which means she supports men having 'husbands'
3. "BE KIND"
4. "2012"

#3 is most annoying

I HATE when people use bumper stickers to tell others how to live/act/think/behave.

Who the fuck is she to tell people to be kind?

But that sticker makes her feel like a good person. She's better than everyone else because she tells people to be kind.

107 An embargo (from the Spanish embargo) is the partial or complete prohibition of commerce and trade with a particular country. Embargoes are considered strong diplomatic measures imposed in an effort, by the imposing country, to elicit a given national-interest result from the country on which it is imposed.

110 She is going to write and "produce" (forming her own production company) her own stuff for CNN. That means she has to use her own money or she has to raise it. And they don't have to buy it. That would also indicate no salary as producers with their own production companies don't get salaries except from their own production company. Fig leaf time. And I'm sure she always wanted to produce documentaries instead of getting a regular paycheck and face-time on TV.
