"Were in the business of reporting what we learn, not concealing it" - Ted Koppel


Hahahahahahahah. yeah right.

Koppel concealing facts

Interestingly, the program ignored the fact that Kerry's own recollections, noted in previous books, directly contradicted the stories told by the Viet Cong terrorists, who were on the program to help Kerry.

But again, what can one expect from NBC? Remember the NBC memo instructing their staff to slant their repoting towards kerry? Well, this is one of them.

OK, I just watched the video. So was kerry lying in his autobiography? Was the Boston Globe's book a lie too?

Koppel doesn't seem to understand or be willing to admit that the people they interviewed in Vietnam may not be correct. He also doesn't seem interested in dealing with kerry or the BG's statements- he only seems to want to go after the SwiftBoat guys. Ofcourse if Koppel would have paid attention - he would understand that by trying to discredit the SwiftBoat guys - he would be discrediting kerry and the Boston Globe too.:p

I really could care less what kerry did to that kid in a loin cloth(or guy fully dressed), but for you all to say this little program discredits anything is silly:p It didn't do anything except muddy the water even more.

"He could not help but wonder if there was not one vietcon with a B-5 but 3 or 5..."

He acts like that statement is an admission by Kerry that there was only one guy there. Well I suppose it can be if you take it out of context and warp it. It sounds to me he's just saying there was only one guy with a B-5, and he was glad there wasn't 5 guys with rocket launchers firing at the boat.

That guy is such an idiot douche bag. Is it like his full time job to hold up books and go "Kerry sucks"?

Ted Kopple was like "Hey, fvck you. This is my show. I'll ask the questions here bitch."

Uh... Righ, O'Neil was a complete douche and consistantly interrupted Koppel. The point of the interview was about the interview with the natives, not with his group. Koppel did need to pay attention to O'Neil he didnt even answer his fricken questions. Of course if you dont care, you wont respond to a thread like this right?

Sure, he interrupted koppel, but koppel was being stupid and not understanding what he was saying. koppel couldn't get it through his skull of mush that if he tries to discredit the swiftboat's account - he automatically discredits the Boston Globe AND kerry's own autobiography.:p
And no, I don't really care what kerry did to that kid(guy), but again - for people in this thread to claim koppel somehow put the smack down on him or discredited him is laughable.

Koppel owned that rat bastard O'neil and you know it. You are a partisan hack, Cad. Your credibility is nill,as nill as O'neils' is, if you belive what you just said even one titlles worth.


I've given you too much credit for common sense. I think I should just ignore you from now on. You can't be destinguished beyond the rest of the neocon nonsense mongers in this forum. Go back to your alter praising Hannity, limbaugh,and O'neil, the religon of the desperate.

The TV show must have been a lot different than what I read in the link, because all I got from the link was that the words in the silver star award were incorrect, and in some cases grossly exagerated.
