I never before agreed that CNN was a station that held much bias, but after Lou Dobbs announced today he would quit, I have a different opinion.

As you know Dobbs has been hate on for his anti-illegal immigration views and supposidely his relationship with CNN has become strained.

I'd like to mention that I don't believe in borders, so I for sure don't believe in stopping immigration, but thats another issue. The fact is that it IS illegal and for good reason (under the current system where the citizens pay the government to take care of them). Why is it such a shocking and insulting thing to support a law?
I don't understand what is so offensive about being against illegal immigration? I'm personally not against it, but it doesnt make me think anyone who is is some racist trash.

It's funny how leftists are so against globalization, yet they bash Dobbs for his anti-globalist views.

One more time I'd like to say I dont share his opinion, I just think it's wrong that you can no longer be a conservative on any other station than bullshit-ass FUX.

Lou Dobbs will be fine. Sometimes I think these pundits hold their seat for too long anyway. We change presidents more often than we change our political pundits. Time to let someone else sway the masses.

edit edit: also, who the hell decided liberals were against globalization?

yeah, what is it about CNN that makes them appear so "neutral" anyway? just cause anderson cooper is a pussy? cause of their serious scroll action? I think they just do a good job of toning things down. But in my eyes I see something, a certain indifferent conservatism that promotes sheepism rather than republican or democrat agendas.

They're the network of the registered Independents. That's not neutral.

I guess I'm looking at it from within the anarchist perspective. All the left anarchists are at those G20 summit protests, the battle in seattle etc.

I dont mind him being gone, I didnt care for him anyways. I just dont like living in a world where you can get pressured out of a job because you dont follow the majority.

If this was 2001 I would say the liberals were the minority, but that's not true today. I just find it fucked up that liberals do the same shit they accuse conservatives of doing to them.

Once again fuck libs and conservatives...Its just the principle.

the thing about cnn is that there are a lot of minorities and women on their board and in the top echelons there, its like a very typical liberal news network ,meaning typically liberal, but not crazy outrageously liberally biased like msnbc....

ill bet lou dobbs will be on fox soon.

it's one thing to debate illegal immigrants, it's another thing entirely to spout false info & hate to millions of viewers. not only is he in bed with several racists, but he's litterally accused immigrants of everything from breeding h1n1 on purpose, to spreading leprosy, and trying to "retake" the southern united states.



fuck lou dobbs. but him leaving cnn is a double edged sword. he can do alot more damage if he ever got elected into office.

Didn't lou dobb's family use illegal immigrants in their horse stables?

There is currently a study of those Americans who want to legalize Marijuana.

Most are Old White Males and are the most who smoke it.

but

Most people who are arrested are Non-White Youth.

While Non-Whites opposse legalization of Marijuana due to Strict Religious Background.

Pot acceptable? Not for young and nonwhite - CNN.com

Pot is indeed flourishing in the mainstream as never before, but the sometimes giddy
discussion overlooks a sinister parallel phenomenon: More people are being arrested for
pot crimes than ever; they are increasingly young and disproportionately nonwhite.

How can the notion that marijuana is "here to stay" coexist with these rates of
marijuana arrests? Apparently because the people caught in the crossfire aren't
considered part of the mainstream. In California, African-Americans are three times as
likely as whites to be arrested for a pot crime, according to the Center for Juvenile and
Criminal Justice. If you're young and nonwhite, you are especially targeted.

The increase in marijuana possession arrests of California teenagers of color since 1990
is quadruple that group's population growth.

In New York City, blacks and Latinos -- who represent about half the city's population --
accounted for 86 percent of everyone charged with pot possession in 2008. The NYCLU
report says federal studies show young whites use marijuana at higher rates than blacks
and Latinos.
