Prometheus 6

All respect and no restraint

A slight modification of my position

I checked PBS's press release about the dread debate. I find myself with this problem.

Immediate public feedback on the performance of the candidates will be conducted by noted pollster Frank Luntz, who will also appear on "Tavis Smiley" on PBS the following evening to discuss his findings.
This means Luntz is the only commentator other than we bloggers...and he will be live, on the air.

I don't want to hear shit about "fair and balanced." It looks way too much like part of the CBCI deal, and if Mr. Smiley is in bed with Fox News it's going to change the way I categorize him. Immediately. The inclusion of progressive bloggers was sort of last minute and I can't help but wonder if Luntz' appearance on the press release is connected.

Let him appear on Smiley's show the next day, I could shiv a gitz about that.

Yes, I'm still going, yes I'm paying my own way like all the others. And now, part of the reason is so can pass judgement on the media aspect as well as the political one.
