Has CNN replayed Barack Obama's speech in Prague in full yet?

Or are we just going to get to hear the opinions of the talking heads about the speech, without seeing the actual speech ourselves? 

I'm calling them now asking them to re-air the speech in full.

1. I don't think so. I caught the tail end of it on CSPAN earlier....
   
looks like they aren't replaying it until 1:45 and 5:00 am in the morning--unless they put it on unscheduled.

This makes me so angry, that the media controls what we see and when. I will happily call them on it---even tho it won't do much good.

I haven't found it up online other than snippets, so far, either.
If anyone finds it, please post for those who want to see it.

update:

I just left CNN my message!

I guess it being on C-span isn't enough!

3. I called a couple of numbers at CNN and wrote an email
   
But of course, they know exactly what they are doing.

Yes, the great conspiracy to deprive her of drooling over the Ohole!

2. I DVRed CNN starting at 3:00 a.m. Pacific time.....
   
and they didn't air the speech even once, from what I can tell in replaying what was happening while I was sleeping. 

I bet CNN would like an unlisted number about now

6. I just left them a "suggestion" for a story idea.....
   
here: http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form11b.html?2

Told them it would be a novel idea to actually air the speech in full
that the commentators are commenting about. 

Almost an hour goes by and it is time for a new thread..with a twist on the rant:

"Americans not shown Obama's Prague speech, just the pundits commentating on it"
 
Yep. I'm quoting myself! 

The various Corporate News channels have yet to broadcast the speech in full at an hour when Americans are awake,

Yet they don't seem to have any hesitation in commenting about the speech much of all day, while showing selected 1 minute excerpts.

I ask and then remember that the corporate news didn't very much like how public opinion was so counter their own.....right after the debates during the election, so I guess this works out just dandy for them! 

I will say that I heard that the speech will be shown in full on C-Span at 5:00 p.m. eastern time.....at least.

But I'll just say....with a media like this, what else could one wish for?

13. These are some frightening MoFos, if you ask me!
   
Guess they consider us too stupid to stop and come up with that.

Kind of like listening to reviews of a movie you haven't yet seen.
The great big difference of course is that this is real life, and not a movie.

17. Frenchie, MSNBC showed a part of the speech in the Chech Republic
   
last night live. How kind of MSNBC to interrupt Lockup to bring President Obama live. Actually, the TV was on and in between waking and snoozing, I heard our Global President's voice and looked. He was good and the crowd was huge, they cheered him many times. Our President was so articulate and focused.

OMG their GLOBAL PRESIDENT

ok, third thread on the topic.....this time a poll

Poll question: Have you seen Obama's speech in full on your television or on the Internet?
   
Edited on Sun Apr-05-09 03:31 PM by FrenchieCat
Because I have tried to, but for some odd reason, I can't seem to find it anywhere!

I'm on the California West Coast, and I believe I would have had to been up and about
around 2:00 a.m. this morning to see it on C-Span or Fox News....or I am wrong?

I do believe it will be broadcasted again on C-Span at 5:00 p.m. eastern time today.

Sounds like it was a great speech to see and hear!

So, did you see the speech in full yet?

and they eat this stuff up and all gather round to worship at the bowl of the Ohole.

[franksolich]

Oh my.

It sounds like a bunch of little primitives yimmer-yammering because Mao's Little Red Book sold out, and they're impatient to get a copy.

[djones520]

Ok...  I'm fine with commenting on people on how articulate someone is.  But honestly, if I only ever read off a teleprompter, then I'd be the next Great Orator as well.

It amazes me that these people can ignore reality like this.  Everytime he does something off the cuff, he sounds like ass.  But as soon as you give him that teleprompter he's the greatest speaker ever to exist.

She should subscribe to channel 666, "Obama anytime, Obama all the time".

CNN has nothing else to do but show what she wants to see when she wants to see it.

[SSG Snuggle Bunny]

Normal people would just watch porn.

And get more out of it! When was the last time ObamawannaBe made any sense at all?

[Lord Undies]

Isn't CNN's audience small enough?

They always seem to be saying or insinuating that the MSM is right-wing and against 0. It amazes me. I wonder how far into your anal cavity you have to stick your head to think the MSM is right-wing.

It makes their hysteria about FOX News funnier.  If indeed all media was "right wing", why would it be necessary to single out FOX News for special hysterics?  Wouldn't they all be FOX News?

What made melaugh the most about this stupid thread was Frenchie having
nothing else to do with her life than post this moronic crap on DU.

Hey SurrenderCat, the way you act about this fracken speech...you might
as well go join a Obama Cult. Oh..wait...

[Celtic Rose]

She could just type Obama Speech Prague into a search engine.  Very first result had the full video of his speech.   

Apparently, she thinks complaining to DU that CNN isn't repeatedly showing a 30 minute presidential speech is a better use of her time.  It isn't like anything else important happened today, such as say a devastating Italian earthquake

She needs them to tell her that she is important and matters....reality is the opposite.

Did anyone actually look at the poll she made over there? The "I hate your Messiah" category got more votes than the "yes, I saw it live" category.

I hate to be indelicate, but I am pretty sure the Obama speeh IS her porn. I would be willing to bet a hundred bucks she masturbates to that crap, and that's why she was getting so frantic to see it. She had an itch to scratch, and nothing but fresh O was gonna do it for her.
Yes, you can kill me now.
