RE: Hannity is a Cobra spy

Comment comment by markmcb on 25 May 2005

However, news is supposed to be just that. Give us an event, and present who, what, why, where, and how.

I'd agree with you if it were done in a news report, but Hannity and Colmes is an opinionated program that digests the news and doesn't necessarily report it. It's not the traditional news report and therefore can stray from the 5WH rule. (Yes, I just made that name up.)

That aside, I really wish they would have let this guy get a full sentence out. They seemed so focused on ensuring that they tell me that he's a moron, that I never got to really see it for myself. (Though it was plainly obvious.)

RE: Hannity is a Cobra spy by mwhite :: NR5

Hannity and Colmes is an opinionated program that digests the news and doesn't necessarily report it.

Whether they are 'digesting' the news or not, they should provide some kind of baseline to the issure before calling their guests names. If I wanted to see people get attacked without completing a full thought first, I'd turn on Jerry Springer. Actually, even Jerry let's his guests, no matter how whacko, speak their mind before being attacked from behind by an obese, bikini-glad ex-girlfriend. This segment speaks poorly of Hannity and Colmes and their guest, but more so of H&C.

The most frustrating part for me was that I had to visit this guy's website to figure out what it was they were so mad at him about. I resent being suckered into that site because they wouldn't let the guy explain in his own words how dumb he is. If he had been able to speak a little bit, I could have saved myself the trip through his ignorant and moronic web-thoughts.
