Hi J_F_Shepard; Re: "You are incredibly uninformed or stupid or both"

Go look up nuclear weapons development, dumbass. Only Britain, USA and Russia could afford it. Germany gave it up because they didn't have enough *m*o*n*e*y* (and in addition, the Nazis forced all their *j*e*w*i*s*h* *s*c*i*e*n*t*i*s*t*s* out of their country). The Germans didn't have a chance in hell of lasting even 15 years against Britain, US or Russia any single one. They would have been flattened, a radioactive wasteland.

Zero Air Time on CBS Evening News For Latest Weiner Sex Scandal
this is where you libs get your news right ?

CBS Evening News stood out among the Big Three evening newscasts on Tuesday in their failure to cover former Rep. Anthony Weiner's admission that he sent lewd text messages even after his resignation in 2011. The CBS show apparently deemed the British royal family's new baby, the doping scandal in baseball, and whale watching to be more important news items. ABC's World News and NBC Nightly News both devoted air time to the Weiner story.

The network finally reported on the latest revelations about the disgraced politician on Wednesday's CBS This Morning, but failed to point out his Democratic affiliation. Jan Crawford merely identified him as a "former U.S. congressman turned New York City mayoral candidate."

CBS Evening News led with a 2 minute and 42 second report on the public debut of Prince William and Princess Kate's newborn son. The newscast immediately followed this with a 2 minute and 26 seconds report on the suspension of Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun for the remainder of the baseball season, and the possible upcoming punishment of other players as a result of the doping scandal. At the end of the broadcast, the show aired a 2 minute and 13 second segment on three divers' near-miss with feeding humpback whales.

The following morning, CBS This Morning led with Crawford's report on the latest Weiner scandal. Anchor Charlie Rose introduced the segment by trumpeting "the story that is rocking the political world again", and co-anchor Norah O'Donnell continued that new revelations "could cost him a shot at political redemption for his campaign for mayor of New York City".

Crawford first noted that "Weiner led people to believe he had put all this sexting behind him – went through therapy – when he resigned in disgrace in 2011. And then, he built this campaign for mayor on the idea of redemption and second chances. But yesterday, he admitted he was still sending lewd texts last summer." She then spent most of her report outlining what took place when the Democrat's obscene messaging first emerged, which ultimately led to his resignation, and what the latest developments were.

The CBS journalist, along with Rose and O'Donnell, also zeroed in on Weiner's wife, Huma Abedin, who also spoke at her husband's Tuesday press conference, where he acknowledged his post-resignation indecent behavior. Crawford pointed out how Abedin is a "longtime aide to Hillary Clinton". O'Donnell added how the mayoral candidate's spouse is supposedly "widely respected and regarded." But all three on-air personalities couldn't be bothered to explicitly mention the former congressman's party identification during this segment, and in a follow-up segment during the 8 am Eastern hour.

CBS, along with its Big Three counterparts, have also omitted the political affiliation of San Diego Mayor Bob Filner, another former congressman who has recently been embroiled in a sex scandal. CBS This Morning initially reported that Filner is the West Coast city's "first Democratic mayor in twenty years," but discontinued noting that information in subsequent reports.
