If you’re not familiar with Charlie, that’s not surprising. He’s the anchor of ABC’s World News Tonight – which no one watches. Last week the White House sent out orders to state-run media to bury the ACORN prostitution story. They all obliged except for Fox News. Even with the media black-out, ACORN responded to the furor by firing the involved employees. The Census Bureau also felt the heat and formally severed their ties with ACORN. And republicans in congress are moving to have ACORN stripped from receiving any more government handouts. Despite all this, Charlie Gibson just laughed like an idiot when asked about the story. He claimed he had never heard anything about it and that it sounded like “cable fodder.” Is it possible that a network news anchor could be so ignorant? Hard to believe but considering how pathetic they are at their jobs we have to at least assume it’s a possibility. The only other explanation is that he is following White House orders and lying to cover up the story. Either answer is unacceptable but all too typical of what passes for mainstream news these days.
