I SO WISH I WAS THERE TO SEE THAT!!!  hahaha!

She should star in a remake of "Clueless" , a new movie about modern day "journalists".  Diane, you and your peers are a JOKE! 

Anyone who says they support the troops but not the mission is a liar. 

The trouble is she doesn't see the irony in what she said and what everyone believed. 

Nuke em til they glow then shoot em in the dark. -- save my gun, shoot a liberal.

Nope. Neither do I.

Admiting that you have a political point of view (bias) and acting accordingly would be honorable and correct. Trying to pretend that you do not is just trying to deny reality or attempted lying.

These pompous asses (add in Bryant Gumble, Bob Costas, ... put in your own flavor here) are so full of themselves it amazes me they can be so clueless or think of themselves as an important cog in society. Here's a concept ... just report the news. Nothing more, nothing less.

There was a news guy that was on a local Cinci station back in the 70's. Channel 9, Al Schottelkotte. He would do the whole news program from news to weather to sports. No inane commentary, no personal views, just what was happening in the world.

From Wiki: "For years Schottelkotte, a workaholic, anchored the news six days a week (Sunday through Friday), doing the noon, 6 p.m. and 11 p.m. newscasts, making him far and away the most visible of all news anchors in Cincinnati"

Ha! let's see one of todays talking heads even get close to that.

Tsk, tsk Diane. All I can think of now is a variation of Dan Akroyd's classic line to Jane Curtain, "Diane you ignorant ..."

"All generalizations are false, including this one.” Mark Twain

If you listen closely enough, you will hear the sound of Diane's bubble being burst.

(knock) (knock) (knock)  Hello! Diane! Are you there? This is reality calling.

Oh Puhleeeeeeeze.....Boo Hoo....Cry me a river....

....the most hurtful moment you have ever had?

Haven't lived much in the real world have ya Diane?

Btw....I am still laughing with everybody in the courtroom...

'To Tell the Truth' is something you prima dona leftists in the drive-by are allergic too...and we in the real world know this little fact.

A cartoon character could do her job.

I hope everyone understands, Dianne just made an excellent fiscal argument for cameras in the courtroom. Why? 3 words: "Pay Per View." Seeing that courtroom break out in laughter when she makes that claim about journalists, for a lot of us here on NB, would be at least as valuable as some stupid boxing match! I think I'd plunk-down $10-15 without even thinking about it (but I just won some loot at poker today, so I'm in an unusually-generous mood!). Anyway, stuff like this could vastly impact that particular court's budget -- who knows how many indigent defendants Dianne's wond...er..hurtful moment could finance voluntarily instead of via the taxpayers??!?

Sawyer's courtroom experience and her quote align with Bernard Goldberg's description of the MSM elites.  It's not that they are consciously pushing a liberal agenda; it's that they actually believe they are centrist/neutral/objective, and they honestly can't understand charges of liberal newsroom bias.  The eruption of jury laughter in direct response to her statement about journalists and truth, should've been the bucket of cold water in her face --- that's direct feedback from John Q. Public.  Chances are that beyond the embarassment, it didn't cause her to reevaluate her own position, and she still can't understand why they laughed. 

As one of my profs once said...

"The basic problem with the jury system of justice is that it places the question of guilt or innocence - and with it the freedom, or even the life, of the accused - in the hands of 12 people who weren't even smart enough to get out of jury duty!"

"We can stand here like the French, or we can do something about it."
-- Marge Simpson

A normal person would think if perhaps Richard Nixon had given you your first big break as he did Sawyer that watching him being driven from office might be a most hurtful moment.

Or perhaps talking to Saddam Hussein knowing hundreds of thousands of Iraqi's lay buried in his genocidal mayhem might be a most hurtful moment.

Thirty years in news, in covering assassinations, rapes, mass slaughters, child molesters and tidal wave disasters.....and Di Sawyer's greatest hurt is a few people laughing at her.

It is worth repeating. Di Sawyer was not hurt by America being ripped apart, by genocide on Iraqi's, about disasters, rapes, murders or child molestation, but was most hurt when a few people laughed at her.

Telling, very telling.

So the broad in the hijab got slapped in the face with reality. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA giggle giggle snort tee hee,

Oh is there video?
A moment like this is too rich for the great unwashed masses not to see!

WhatAMaroon

"Can, you know, can you tell the truth and be fair?"
"That's what journalists do."
Sound like an evasive answer to me. Why would she not just say "Yes"? I can see why the Judge took her off of the jury. A simple question and she has use it to remind everyone present that she is a Juuuuuurnalisssst.

Aw... Poor widdew baby. Did you get a boo-boo on your feewings because people know the troof?

Yeah, whatever. You can complain about your hurtful moments after you apologize for all the hurtful moments you and your news organization have caused innocent people over the years.

Diane got a taste of what she's usually insulated from:  The opinions and reactions of real people.

Wouldn't Diane Sawyer be up for jury duty in a very liberal jurisdiction?  If so, the reaction is more telling.

When you put the clowns in charge, don't be surprised when a circus breaks out.
