....but sadly, some are not up to reporting it. I was watching CNN's Kyra Phillips repulsion of the video of protestors who had surrounded a media bus in Denver, CO yesterday. Following the president, their progress had suddenly been detained by protestors against Bush's war.
Unable to dismount the bus, Kyra Phillips spoke with CNN's Elaine Quijano on board as cameras relayed images of the angry citizens outside, some flipping Bush the finger. This obviously made Kyra Phillips uneasy, as she apologized for the images being flashed across her network. Phillips was apparently embarrassed by the anger of citizens being manifested in the form of a simple gesture alongside the signs they were carrying.
Keep in mind the simple flipping of the bird in anger at Bush's policies is shameful and embarrassing to CNN, while their *Rah-rah* lead-up to Bush's war and the subsequent attrocities are not. A squeamish Phillips concluded the interview with Quijano and her repulsive images thusly, "Once again Elaine Quijano.... I just....get off this video, Elaine Quijano, thank you so much, some protestors there, obviously anti-war protestors comin' up on the media bus there as the president arrives there in Denver, CO..."
Dada would suggest if Kyra Phillips finds such gestures of the protestors offensive, she get help having her head extracted from her bodily orifice too "embarrassing and offensive" to mention here so that she'll be able to report objectively before a background of tortured Iraqis, of tens of thousands of maimed and murdered Iraqi women and children; of over 2,100 dead American soldiers and thousands more wounded.
Oh wait, never mind. CNN doesn't show us those gruesome images. Fingers of angry protestors already tests the limits of what they can report. So disregard my previous suggestion, Kyra Phillips. You can leave your head up that bodily orifice.
