Burning Atlanta

I dumped cable TV years ago. Yes, I miss a lot of entertainment and information but I spend so much time on the computer that a TV only prvides background noise. Point being I don't watch Dobbs. I do see some of his takes and parts of his shows via computer. I do know this, the pro-illegals hate his guts. Most of the hatred seems to be that he focuses part of his shows on the insanity around illegal immigration. So sad, too bad. the truth hurts and the pro-illegals hate truth. That's why they dance all around the word "amnesty" and prefer "undocumented" instead of "illegal."

Tough tacos.

Leaders of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, a coalition of 21 Latino congressmembers, dispatched a letter Friday to Time Warner CEO Jeffrey Bewkes complaining that the network's news coverage is slanted against immigration and has adopted the rhetoric of outspoken CNN host Lou Dobbs. They're blaming all of CNN as being biased? Humm?

CHC Chairman Joe Baca (D-CA) and Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) expressed outrage that their appeals to meet privately with CNN have gone ignored, and that their letter to Time Warner's CEO have instead ended up on the desk of CNN's president. Why privately? Why not ask a few to appear on a Dobb's show? tee-hee

Adds Roll Call:

According to Menendez, many of CNN’s news programs have adopted “the language Lou Dobbs uses,” referring to the host of “Lou Dobbs Tonight,” who uses the platform to complain about illegal immigration.

“The news program has become the equivalent of opinion and not information,” Menendez said, asserting that news anchors opt for language describing “hordes” of immigrants crossing borders, and use phrases such as “illegal” rather than “undocumented” when describing such immigrants.
