Last week CNN used a music bump to call Sarah Palin a “stupid girl.” On Sunday, CNN bumped into of a segment on the Sikh temple massacre in an unbelievably crass way.
After about a six minute discussion, the program cut to a commercial break. Upon return, viewers were greeted with Billy Joel:
Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray/ They built you a temple and locked you away/ Ah but they never told you the price that you pay/ For the things that you might have done… Only the good die young/That’s what I said/Only the good die young, Only the good die young.
For those not familiar with Starting Point, the show allows guest contributors to offer a song playlist for their appearances.
This little diddy was chosen by guest Hank Sheinkopf.
Let’s get the obvious gig out of the way: It’s fortunate this occurred on CNN, or someone might have seen it.
But, “Only the Good Die Young”? CNN is a joke.
Don’t forget the NBC slip where they went to the monkey on the rings after Gabby won gold.
A 13 year old pointed out that that could not be racist because only men do the rings event.
Was that Sheinkopf or Sheiskopf?
For those unfamiliar with German or Yiddish, Sheiskopf translates as “shithead”.
CNN died old and decrepit.
CNN died old, senile, and decrepit.
I think the CNN gang are recipients of George Soros’ scholarship foundation. I mean why would anyone watch CNN anymore? They are just loons over there. I do have to admit I like A. Cooper, even in spite of his liberal agenda, but anything else there is just poo.
CNN’s coverage of the landing of Curiosity on Mars included a report from Moscow which emphasized the USSR’s first attempt to “contact” Mars during the 1960s. One would have thought that this was the first contact since then and we all owed a debt to our Soviet forebears.
What was your first clue?
Juvenile delinquent? Liberal? What’s the difference?
