GRITtv: What Happened to the “Gotcha Press”?
Tonight on GRITtv, The Nation’s Betsy Reed, the MediaChannel’s Danny Schechter and Air America’s Lionel consider the media’s coverage of Bush’s appeasement dig. Where are the “gotcha press” when you need them? And why such media silence about the Saudi’s rebuff of Bush’s oil request? Schechter says it wasn’t a rebuff at all. The dollar’s devaluators set things up this way for a reason. And, in a religion-soaked campaign, can secularists compete? We talk about that with the author of The Secular Conscience. And San Franciscans celebrate the California Supreme Court decision. All that and more, right here on GRITtv.

Where was the gotcha press when the press didn’t mention Bush’s grandaddy Prescott Bush dealing with the Natzies when Bush sounded of about Natzies apeasment. Bush has to look like he is doing something about high oil prices, so he ask Saudi’s even thouth he knew they would refuse to increase oil production. When he ask and they refued as he knew he was let off the hook. Don’t hear no more about do you????
