Even dead, Edward nails it in one.
You realise that someone else made that caption rirght ?
*facepalm*
Oh god.
*epic headdesk*
I believe the children are our future…and we’re fucked.
Wrong. Edward R. Murrow does his own writing; always has, always will!
Actually, I don’t think he is at the moment. But we get your drift.
Sure he is. Do you really think Keith Olbermann could write all of that copy by himself? How could one man write all of that and yet there are no contradictions!.
Come on, use your head man. Keith Olbermann is merely the conduit through which the hold word of ERM flows.
hold = holy
Obviously, I’m not worthy…
OMG! I didn’t realize the Olberman could channel Murrow. It all makes perfect sense now!
The only thing Keith Olberman channels is pure insanity. THe guy isn’t even a good sports analyst.
If Murrow could make his presence known from beyond the grave he would undoubtedly kick Olbermann’s sorry ass for even mentioning their names in the same sentence.
Ghost writing
OK, let me rephrase.
Even dead and with someone else writing his copy, Edward nails it in one.
There. Happy?
He’s got a point, you know.
is it just me or does he look like Mike Huckabee?
Lazlo obviously didn’t live through the pre-CNN years. I always thought it was weird that there was exactly an hour’s worth of stuff that happened, worldwide; and if it didn’t apply to white, middle class Americans, then it wasn’t in the news!
If we can’t mandate exceptional news coverage, we can at least expect a sufficient quantity that sometimes we get all we need.
To Murrow, and to Moyers, and to Phillips ….
It is a tale told by an idiot box,
Full of Chung and Couric,
Signifying nothing.
Nice work with the Shakespeare reference Pittypat
Nicely done.
Thanks PM and IT!
MSNBC 9pm, est
The Camelot Edition? All TV news media is there to sell ED meds and anti-depressant drugs…
vicious circle, that
“I’m depressed because I can’t get it up, and I can’t get it up because I’m depressed.”
Or the news, which leads to flaccid despair, force feeds
propaganda about ED and depression.
And then the anti-depressant meds cause ED as well.
I’m starting to get paranoid, y’all keep talking about me!

Oh wait, you mean that Bob Dole thing!

Sorry, back to your regularly scheduled programming.
well, you have to admit that ‘psghetti’ does go from firm to limp as soon as
things start to heat up.
And I have to admit that even if that’s not where your name comes from, it’s what I always think of.
Ok, that’s it.. I won’t be thought of in that way..

Behold, the New and Improved Eddie!

Of course, this is only if the public will allow it. Otherwise we’ll have to do a Coke Classic and return to the previous version.
I vote yea
(but don’t you still go limp when things heat up?)
Nope! This is the new version..
I hear he’s al dente….
And there you have it! Thanks for the clarification.. I was looking for the right term.
Well, all dented or not, I think we’re going to have to tun up the hat and make sure he remains resolute even when ’sauced’…
hat = heat
my keyboard is having issues today
I was wondering what ‘tun up the hat’ was referring to.. Google wasn’t much help I”m afraid.
Damn, my typing is making me look a bit sauced. Time to clean the keyboard.
Okay, so how does one go about tuning up the
heat?
With a Fahrenheit Fork or a Celsius Calibrator of course.
.
Geez, stupid questions…
Or dante al(ighieri) – his comedy is just divine.
Ya gotta admit, Rachel Maddow is awesome…
Especially when she’s got Ana Marie Cox to bounce off of. I loved it when she had to give Rachel the word “gah!” for their analysis of the Jindal speech.
And then they made out.OK, they didn’t, but damn, they should have.
Srsly, I could listen to those two talk about lawn care for half an hour and it would be fascinating.
At least the commentary would be more correct if they talked about the lawn.
C’mon, there’s a reason her talk radio career flopped.
But the two making out would’ve been good!
Best one I’ve seen in a long, long time. We, the younger generation, can learn a thing or two from Murrow, Brinkley, and Cronkite.
