This blog is mainly about the spectacular train wreck at The Sacramento Bee and its parent company, the McClatchy Company. But I also post about current events, the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, politics, anything else that grabs my attention. Take a look around this blog, hope you enjoy it.
Roland Martin might be cracking under the pressure -- the latest Nielsen ratings show CNN is getting crushed by FOX. .

CNN has absolutely nothing to gloat about, its ratings are lower than MSNBC and that's the definition of LOW. Fox, Beck & Co. and kicking their asses without bothering to take names. Fox is on a power roll in viewership and popularity. Thank you Mr. Obama! Your incompetence is fueling Fox ratings records.
I wonder why Roland didn’t tweet Glenn was so happy two GOP governors won he blew a gasket. Repeating the Democrat's talking points is so boring, wouldn’t you think watching CNN go down the tubes would wake up even a loser like Roland? Tweet, tweeeeet, as the bird tweeting craps on the newspaper lining the bottom of his cage. Liberalism doesn't sell anywhere Roland.
Roland has a serious disease, Obamaitis, better know as the bias virus. CNN is known for grouping the infected ones into the so-called news division. The disease is aggressive in its latter stages. There is no known cure, but CNN revels in being an equal opportunity employer. Hiring the sick is their new brand of affirmative action. Roland is eligible in two categories, how can you top that?
Here is an on-air comment from Martin: Martin’s response: "I think I will quote Al Franken when talking about Rush Limbaugh -- is a stupid, fat idiot..” That is the gutter reporting so common now on CNN. Trying to destroy anyone not walking the liberal line is NOT working for them, and their ratings’ drop teaches them nothing.
Martin was crying when Obama won, the Bam being the first white/black president and all. He was also crying again when Beck ran off Van Jones. The silly fool thinks that making a joke about Beck’s is just paying him back for taking away a cushy job from a brother.
CNN ratings drop again “More evidence that CNN is going to have to find a new strategy fast or risk becoming a cable news also-ran: the latest poll put them in fourth place”
Oh yeah Roland, dis Beck who creams you everyday. Too funny.
No professional newsperson says things like “ stupid, fat idiot..” about anyone. People of any worth will not listen to such vitriol. That is not an opinion, that is unreasonable hatred speaking. CNN is losing ground as thinking people find them not just biased, but dishonest. Trying to prop up improper behavior is not going to save CNN, it would be better to ask them to get back to the job they are supposed to be doing, instead of their sorry Obama cheerleading.
“CNN is on in the [cafeteria at my school] so I only encounter it for a few minutes every day.” This is something for Beck to explore. = CNN’s Ratings Drop
So the news today is that CNN has been losing viewers as Fox has gained viewers. I believe it is easy to attribute Fox’s increase in viewership to ideological opposition to the White House, but I don’t think this is the reason for CNN’s viewership drop. When you have Ted Turner saying that his brainchild needs “less fluffy news and more international news,” I think there is something wrong. CNN is on in the cafeteria at my school so I only encounter it for a few minutes every day. More @: http://blog.unbrain.net/archives/2009/10/cnns-ratings-drop/
Why Doesn’t CNN’s Roland Martin Get Axed like Carville and Begala Did?
Just this past January, James Carville and Paul Begala were fired from CNN for their association with Hillary Clinton. But Roland Martin? He’s CNN’s new favored commentator. The only thing is, CNN doesn’t tell you that he is a professional apologist for and supporter of Barack Obama. He is also a friend and close associate of Obama’s national Co-Chairman, Jesse Jackson Jr. and he attends the Salem Baptist Church of Reverend James Meeks, another of Barack Obama’s spiritual advisors. So why hasn’t he been fired too?
Actually, it's remarkably WITLESS and UNFUNNY, but not surprising.
I've tried watching him several times, and the experience was excruciating. Martin is a talentless hack who sees himself as "controversial", when in fact he's nothing more than a mindless repeater of liberal talking points, who got his job because of his skin color.
Roland Martin is an affirmative action hire, IMO. Nothing else could explain such a biased and untalented person working at any network. When companies hire for reasons of skin color or minority status rather than professionalism, nothing good can result. Once his extreme liberal bias was known, his opinions were useless. Who is going to believe anything he says? Not many, as his ratings drop into the dumpster continues.

Come on, have a sense of humor. That's funny.
I never heard Roland Martin being accused of having any class. Typical CNN wannabe something or the other.
While Glenn recoups:

Roland Martin is so in-the-tank for Obama, nothing he says has any relevance.
Just hope that Roland shows up at a protest near you and go and show him the same disrespect.
10:49 I could be wrong, but I doubt most people think it's funny to mock somebody's illness.

Ted Turner is threatening to take control of CNN again. That is how bad it has become. Shhh, don’t tell Ted it is too late already.

12:27 wow... I bet we'll hear more no-class slams from Martin as CNN keeps auguring into the tarmac.
12:27 : He's offering his opinion as Rush does all the time. IMHO I agree with Martin as does many, many people.
CNN ratings drop again

Statistics for CNN does not bear that out, pal.

Rowland Martin???
Never heard of him.
Didn't he used to have a Fishing Show on TV many years ago?
I thought he was on Laugh In back in the dark ages
