TvNewsLIES Headline News

TVNL Editor's Comments: Why is it that I seem to know more about George W. Bush, his father, his administration, Iraq & al Qaeda, than every single Bush supporter that I meet? Perhaps that is the key. Perhaps that proves my point about the media having blood on their hands because had they informed the people of the real truths the people would never support this administration. Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

Note: British Member of Parliament George Galloway is the proud owner of a TvNewsLIES tee shirt! Our good friend (who goes by the screen name of Tapirsaver on forums around the web including on our forum), was kind enough to give one to Mr. Galloway this past Saturday. Tapirsaver and Mr. Galloway were both taking part in the weekend of protests taking place in DC. Thanks Tapirsaver!

JOURNALISM & MEDIA : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news/#media

· Mainstream media shows ineptness and irrelevance at the antiwar demonstration in Washington. - “Who’s that?” a middle-aged blond journalist, in an impatient tone, asks me. Her attractive blue eyes are edgy and narrow. I could tell she expected me to give her a quick answer. - “That’s Ramsey Clark,” I say.

I fear a over-caffeinated journalist might bash his teeth out.
