I think this is disgusting ....

Imus producer on man who admitted killing Ramsey: "He looks like Ned Lamont, actually. Is that who you want representing you, Connecticut?"
On the August 17 edition of MSNBC's Imus in the Morning, executive producer Bernard McGuirk said that John Mark Karr, the man who reportedly admitted to killing 6-year-old beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey in 1996, "looks like Ned Lamont, actually." McGuirk then asked: "Is that who you want representing you, Connecticut?"
McGuirk's remarks were just the latest attack against Lamont, the Democratic nominee for a Connecticut Senate seat. As the weblog Think Progress noted , on the August 16 edition of Fox News Live, former Weekly Standard deputy publisher David Bass said that a woman who caused a plane to be diverted after suffering a panic attack was "probably not a terrorist; could just be a Ned Lamont supporter." As Media Matters for America has noted, since his victory in the primary on August 8, Lamont has been cast by members of the media as a part of the "Taliban wing" of the Democratic party, " anti-American," " defeatist" and the latest example of how Democrats have become "apologists for terrorists."
Write to MSNBC - viewerservices@msnbc.com and tell them to take Imus off the air or at least demand that they fire the producer.
I'm so sick and tired of hearing about the "liberal" press. Tucker Carlson, Joe Scarborough, Rita Cosby, Imus? These aren't liberals no matter how loosely you want to define the term . In fact they aren't even close to the middle of the road.
We seriously need to lobby congress to bring back the Fairness Doctrine
