Campbell Brown is extremely biased. If SHE has all the answers, along with some other journalists, such as Wolf Blitzer, then they should run for President themselves. They are supposed to report the news and be unbiased.

Campbell Brown needs to take lessons from Mrs. Palin in being professional. I’m a white male trucker and will no longer watch Mrs. Brown insult Mrs. Palin. Sorry Mrs. Brown, I hope you squirm knowing that Sarah Palin will be the first woman president!!

I think that Campbell Brown is the best! There are sooooo many talking heads out there right now with soooo much time available. I record Campbell’s stuff because I think she is the best of the bunch. More Campbell Brown, I say.

I really don’t have a problem with legitimate questions. My argument with Campbell Brown is the way she shrieked at Tucker Bounds and at least one other Republican rep. However, she’s received too much attention for this. She’s revelling in it. Tonight she, once again, replayed the segment so viewers could “decide for themselves” if she went over the line. She, of course, felt that she hadn’t. This is the second time I’ve seen her replay it. I changed the channel as soon as I realized what she was about to replay. She’s thrives on this crap and will probably get a raise and promotion.

I am finally admitting, after a lot of light beer and foo-foo martini drinks, that I was, well, a little, biased against Tucker Bounds. I know, I know, my network NEVER pressed Obama as hard on his “experience” as a “community organizer” and how that somehow “qualifies” him to be president, but that’s beside the point.You see, people of Middle America, since I am a member of the media elite, and a high and mighty woman at that, that I am always right, and Republicans (who are all really just white males anyway with no diversity), are always wrong.You see, I really want a black man to win the presidency, so I’m going to use my $3 million job to effectively campaign for Obama, pass through unchecked Democrat talking points and lines of attack, and (******* deleted because of explicit content ******) of every manager at CNN until they proclaim on air that I am not biased and that my line of questioning about Palin to Tucker Bounds was perfectly fair, because after all, there are “people” who want to know. Yes, yes, I know they are fictional made up people, but that doesn’t matter either.In other words, I am a high and mighty bitch of a woman, and anything I say or do goes, unchecked. Now THAT’s shattering the glass ceiling!!!!!

I agree with Carol, “it is not Campbell Brown’s job to stir the pot!” Her job is to ask questions and not to interject her own “personal” beliefs. Her “style” of journalism is NOT journalism. She really should be on a “fluff” style of show, i.e., Entertainment Tonight, etc. Perhaps writing for Us Magazine. CNN touts itself as a “News Program”, so they should be a News Program. Report the facts, ask the questions, keep your personal opinions to yourself!

No, it’s not Campbell’s job to “stir the pot.” Her job is to interview people – ask questions, but not to YELL at them when she disagrees with them.

And I’ve been to Alaska – twice, and while it has immense areas of untouched wilderness and tundra, it also has some very modern cities and a thriving culture. I’ve been to Wasilla, too – a very nice town.

The bottom line is that Sarah Palin was the best choice to help McCain win. It was a tactical move; McCain had a long list of far more experienced candidates, but they are old and boring and rich and male. Is she experienced? Not really…have any of you ever been to Alaska? Seems to me to be pretty easy to govern since nobody lives there and they have so much money from oil production a surplus is an easy feat. Again, she was chosen to stir the pot…and welcome to the world of journalism..it’s Campbell Brown’s job to stir the pot as well. Get over it! If news reporting was calm, collected, and reserved…it would be boring too! When has news coverage ever be unbiased, factual, and objective? Get over it!

Wow… I’ve lost all respect for Campbell, she has repeatedly come across unprofessional. Seems she cannot keep her keep her composure or leave her bias at home. What a bad name for journalism and professional women. Wolf comes across so composed and respectful, but I’d rather watch another channel without all the shrilling soap opera drama…

I do believe the media bias has gotten out of hand. Don’t CNN, MSNBC, FOX and the others realize that the majority of us simply want an objective accounting of the news? Campbell Brown was a DISGRACE, and her tirade diminishes the stature of her colleagues at CNN, especially Wolf Blitzer, who seems to be repeatedly coming to her defense in such a pathetic, desperate way.
