NBC feeling the heat...

As well they should. Parents of some of the victims were scheduled to appear on the Today Show this morning but canceled after NBC decided to air the videos, photos and writings of the VT gunman that were sent to NBC after the first shooting on Monday, April 16.

I must say I found it distasteful myself that NBC aired this material. I was hoping for some sense decency from NBC and hoped that they would refrain from doing this, although I would have been shocked if they actually didn't air any of it. I guess ratings matter more than the victims families grief.

What I find even more offensive and laughable is NBC's defense that they immediately notified the FBI when they realized what they had in their possession. Immediately after they had made copies of everything, apparently. And they add the fact that all persons who handled these materials wore gloves.

Gloves? Oh great! Thanks for doing that!

Oh and they are only featuring the material during 10% of their airtime. That's 6 minutes per hour.

On the other hand Fox News has decided to stop running any of the videos, thank goodness.

Obama spokesperson confirms NY Post article

Well, it sure sounds like she did ; In the New York Post, conservative Iranian-born columnist Amir Taheri quoted Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari as saying the Democrat made the demand when he visited Baghdad in July, while publicly demanding an early withdrawal. “He asked why we were not prepared to delay an agreement until after the US elections and the formation of a new administration in Washington,” Zebari said in an interview, according to Taheri. “However, as an Iraqi, I prefer to have a security agreement that regulates the activities of foreign troops, rather than keeping the matter open,” Zebari reportedly said. … Obama’s national security spokeswoman Wendy Morigi said Taheri’s article bore “as much resemblance to the truth as a McCain campaign commercial.” In fact, Obama had told the Iraqis that they should not rush through a “Strategic Framework Agreement” governing the future of US forces until after President George W. Bush leaves office, she said...

What a load of crap!

Ok...for starters its called wolf control . The killing of wolves either via the air or the more traditional ways saves moose and caribou which is the intent. And also Alaskans rely on deer, moose, caribou and other wildlife for food . These dumb asses would rather have you believe that Palin is hanging out the side of the helicopter screaming in hysterical joy while she slaughters these poor defenseless wolves. And isn't that really the point anyway.
