Why is Wolf Blitzer and CNN covering the live launch of the Shuttle Atlantis? They don't normally do this and this isn't a special launch of any kind. I sure hope nothing happens to those astronauts.

It might just be a fluke.

My Question is why wont the MSM Report on those poor Ed Browns :mad:

Fox: eh? Nothing on the browns
CNN:ZERO Story on the Ed Browns

I miss the days where we actually covered space missions.

NASA TV ftw!
 
They usually cover them. They started covering them after Challenger blew up and they missed it.
 
I'm not sure if this is a good or bad thing but this is what the local New Hampshire news reported about the Browns:

"Monier said officials cut the phone to prevent supporters from flocking to the Browns. They have developed an online following of fellow anti-tax activists, Ron Paul supporters and others who believe in a federal government conspiracy to deprive Americans of their liberties."

Wow, I was wondering what happened to that family. I can't believe the news isn't covering this..

Back in the day we got full coverage of the entire missions. Luckally we have NASA TV on satellite and internet now.

Honestly, coverage of the shuttle launch is much better then the 24/7 coverage of Paris Hilton that they had on prior to that. Seriously, what does it say about our society when MSNBC, CNN, and FOX News are all covering Paris Hilton's latest drama without actually having her on the show, just a video of her parent's mansion?

It's a bad thing. The media has decided to link Ron Paul with nutters and crackpots. They didn't come up with that idea on their own, it was all the nutters and crackpots hijacking the campaign. We are all free to believe whatever we want, but to glom onto the Ron Paul campaign to use it as your personal platform for your beliefs is rude in the extreme.

The Browns are crackpots. Crackpots who are being unjustly harrassed and besieged by the government, but crackpots nonetheless. They're not holed not because they're making a moral statement, but because they think the income tax is "fictional". If you want to protest against the seige, please do so. If I were in New Hampshire, I would be there protesting too. But don't take your Ron Paul posters, because this is not about Ron Paul.
