Well, it is a good point. But money has a way of changing those views.

She has a billion dollar empire at stake -- in a business where a couple of wrong words can put you in a tailspin. She already saw her shows popularity crater after coming out in support of Obama.


Her show's popularity did not "crater" but her ratings did move down a little. However, her production company has so many shows on the air now that she is assured of getting a very steady stream of good money until she dies. I am sure she is not worried about her future.

Personally, I think it is fine if she wants her show to have a pro-Obama bias. That's her capitalistic prerogative.

I have a problem, however, with Chris Matthews and that ignorant slut Campbell Brown doing it.


I don't know what you are talking about when it comes to Mathews.....I don't follow him but with Campbell Brown, if you mean the incident with Bounds, that's GOP BS. I applaud what she did. Bounds was in over his head and he made a stupid statement he couldn't support.

All I can say is that finally...maybe.....the media is starting to stick up for our side and not letting your boys get away with 'murder'.
