Cbs Station Attempts To Bar Blogger From Couric Meeting Message Board and Comments

Citizen is right: The media in America is still controlled by a minority of people who have dual passports. What is funny is that these people invented the word anti-semitisim to attempt to deflect any critical examination of who they are and what they believe. We examine blacks, whites, christians, muslims, mexicans yet we cannot talk about "liberal Jews." Let's talk: When Jews migrated enmasse to America in in the late 1800s and early 1900s what did they bring with them? Socialism, feminisim and a total corruption of our criminal justice system. A young jewish emigree murdered President Mckinnley because he hated democracy. Liberal Jews through the ACLU have fought to take God out of the public square, stop the execution of murderers and try at all costs to promote any type of sexual depravity among our youth. Just look at the state of NY where the ACLU is trying to lower the statuatory rape law to 12!!!! Liberal Jews believe somehow that a Jewish state of Israel to exist as a religous and cultural entitity and yet they are the first to call european countries racist when they assert the same right in the face of mass immigration from third countries. The only place in the past 2000 years where Jews have had total freedom to live and practice their religon with out persecution has been America (with the exception of Israel)and look at how they have graced our shores: They have attacked every moral and religous foundation that our nation was founded under the guise of 'civil liberties.' So yes, I will assume the title of anti-semite if it means that we finally bring this small group of power mongers to task.

@wearley26...I could not agree any stronger.

I live near Boston Ma. Radio station 96.9 is talk radio here, starting with Bill O'Reilly at 1 pm and continues on with the "usual suspects". I admit that I listen to it often because it these people, including Jay Severin and Laura Ingram, make my blood boil with the awful things they say and the cleaver way they manipulate their listeners. To be honest, it is guilty pleasure, knowing how intellectually dishonest these people are, yet how many people they are able to take in. Lately, however, I have begun to think that these people, among others, are really poisoning the waters of honest discussion in our country. The time for debate has disolved into shouting matches that are won by the loudest speaker or the most dishonest person. I suspect that all of these people are smart enough to know the truth of what they speak as well as how to manipulate the conversation to get the reaction they desire. I presume that all of this is done in the name of demographics and advertising dollars. If we are ever to get back to a productive civilized society, these polluters of the water must go back to some other type of job. I have a feeling that people who wish to see the end of this kind of hateful "talk radio" will have to work together to disrupt the flow of advertising dollars and it will have to be a community based effort.

@scarlettroyal...Its called mutual funds, usually tied to a 401K..Jeez. Or maybe you didn't know that? Yep, millions have them, each own a little piece of American companies. However; THEY HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE COMPANY, NO VOTING RIGHTS AND ONLY CARE ABOUT THEIR MUTUAL FUND HEADING NORTH RATHER THAN SOUTH! Peek inside the boardroom sometime of CBS and see who is running the show..Duh. Matt Drudge went through the same crap with these same groups ( just as this blogger went through). Those in the know remember that well. Those not in the know can easily find that info online. Scarlettroyal...I hate to tell you this, but mainstream media is not controlled by "average Americans" as you call them. Rather by a rich minority of dual citizenship, dual passport holding..e%r#r....nevermind!....Wake up!

Have you ever known a mental dud, who discovers the obvious, then yells "Eureka?" [Yes, they are fools, but let us humor them for the sake of argument; then take the argument in a logical, step by step manner, for the sake of the "less than average" citizen.] Point 1 (a) CBS is a fairly large American corporation. (b) American corporations are generally owned by fairly average Americans. Therefore: (c) CBS is owned by average Americans. However: (d) The average American has ZERO impact on the day to day operation of the corporations in which they have financial interests. Point 2 (a) The majority of average Americans are Zionists. (b) The majority of CBS owners are Americans. Therefore: (c) The majority of CBS owners are Zionists. However: The majority of all American corporations are owned by Americans (the majority of whom are Zionists), so the majority of all American corporations are owned by Zionists. Point III (a) Millions of average American Zionists own minority shares in a few corporations. (b) Hundreds of corporations are owned by millions of American Zionist shareholders who each own a tiny fraction of shares. Therefore: (c) Most corporations have zero interest or ability to respond to the wishes of their millions of small shareholders. However: The fact that most Americans are Zionists has zero impact on the day to day operation of the corporations in which they have financial interests. Therefore, there is NO "Zionist" control. If any citizen claims that CBS is "Zionist controlled" because most corporations are owned by "average" Americans and because most "average" Americans are "Zionists," then that citizen does not even understand the relationship between stockholders and corporations, let alone understanding the relationship between most Americans and Zion. So, what is his/her point? That the moon controls the tides? That the sun rises in the east? Eureka!

I worked in the media for over 25 years, and yes, the media DOES have a right to be anywhere, at anytime, covering anything. We call it the First Amendment...if you think CBS News' coverage of the day's events is pure crap...don't watch, same for FOX, or any other outlet. The purpose of focus groups is to get intellegent input, instead of a load of gaga from the great unwashed masses who likely wouldn't know hard news from a steaming, runny pile of biomass....be you liberal or conservative, the media is impartial..it's the opinion of the beholder that isn't.

@Seneca Doane...Anti-Semitic?...NO. Anti-Zionist control over the major news media?...YES..And proud of it. Katie is going to be paid millions to push a minority slant/rant to couch potato Americans. Fairybee is right...It's all about truth and who gets to spin their version. Seneca, you assuming hatred on my part is a perfect example of the politically correct brainwashing you and others are receiving from this minority control. Snap out of it!

I would not watch Katie Couric if she were the ONLY person doing the news! I don't want to listen to Democrat Talking Points. Long live FOX NEWS!!!!

Freedom of the Press. Hmmm... an interesting idea Guess CBS considers it too controversial to implement

A blogger was kept from meeting the Perky Katie Couric by a drive-by media person--this is no surprise, folks! Mainstream media is deathly afraid of the alternative media these days, because they tell the truth, not the daily liberal "talking points." We, the people, are getting our news and information from many sources, not just the three "alphabet" network news stations.

Oy vey! [Itz eezee ta pik th' grad-U-Atz 'o th' Ozark skul o' ill-lit-ruts! Thay kaint spel fer krap.] In fact, hatred and prejudice are NOT family values. In fact, there is minimal room in America for haters. In fact, haters are tolerated because of the compassion, wisdom, and vision of our founding fathers who understood all too well the weaknesses of the human condition. In fact, our founding fathers knew that these haters were mentally deficient and needed to be protected, because they were too stupid to fit into a civilized society. In fact, haters are not celebrated, or looked to for their all encompassing wisdom. In fact, haters harm and weaken their own children, and harm and embarrass their own grandchildren. Being aware of CBS' ideology is one thing. Ignorantly labeling CBS is the mark of those who are too ignorant to understand differences in ideology.

Actually, citizen happens to be correct. Oy Vay!!

CBS is licensed and regulated by the US government. They are in a cut-throat, billion dollar business. To attempt to portray them as "community-minded" is beyond ridiculous. They are in the business of manipulation, and transparency isn't in their vocabulary. Currently, they are attempting to build currency for their latest investment; an evil, over-paid, gummy-grinned, media gnome, whom they think will deliver superb rating dollars. CBS is not capable of comprehending that the public will have zero interest in her ancient sinewy legs, her saggy butt, her greasy hair, her bony shoulders, her flat chest, her phony smile, her croaky voice, her nasty disposition, and her glazed, buggy, eye-balls.

I'm all for bloggers, but so what if CBS didn't want any news media to show up to a focus group? If just news people showed up, CBS wouldn't learn anything from real people, which was the whole point, if I understand it correctly. The news media should lighten up and realize they don't have a right to be everywhere, all the time, and that there is business out there to conduct which does not require their intervention.

C-BS + smarmy katie, perfect match, good for the right

Way to go, <b>citizen</b>. You can't keep your anti-Semitic hatred in check long enough to post your comment. I'm glad people stopped buying into your vile garbage years ago. Open a vein, you pathetic waste of skin.

That is what we have all come to expect from CBS:the "Congress of Bolshevik Sycophants". Like many others in the mainstream media, they feel freedom of speech only pertains to them. They can say what they want as far as I am concerned, no one is listening anyway.

Transparency? Yeah right...As long as everything is kosher, everything is fine.

CBS = See BS. They (including the 'new' short-but-not-so-little Katie) really think they know better for US than all of US! No matter who's reading it, their 'news' is a joke.
