Do you think a reporter should have the right to get angry with a twitter criticizing him? - Coop 366 - 01-16-2013 10:03 AM
BQ--Do you think Pamela Weiss bias clouds what she hears?
I have Jewish blood but heard it differently, Cooper was in Gaza and Blitzer in Israel.

You are right.
She has the right to be mad, however being mad still does not make her right, just annoyed.

Considering that she was accusing him of bias, probably on an open tweet, he has every right to defend himself.

Now is your time...a ceasefire went into effect at 2p.m. EDT.
Because of Hillary, or in spite of Hillary???
With that Tel Aviv bus being blown, any number of alleged conspirators being shot by Hamas, and other terrorist atrocities, it is about time, eh?
The Gaza Strip does NOT belong to the Palestinians.

The RIGHT to get angry? SURE! On the air? He's risking his job, but as long as he understands that, Again, SURE! If he pipes off during his show, then CNN has the right to allow him to find a job at PMS-NBC.
"-Do you think Pamela Weiss bias clouds what she hears?"
Um, Gee, Like BY DEFINITION, Right?
If only she was completely Unbiased, Like YOU. (LOL)
It is like when obama says "make education a national priority" My bias has ME hearing "take it over from the states"
You seem to be really wrapped up by people's Biases. This is something that is unique to humans, the ability to make observations, and draw conclusions, and not have to "Invent the wheel" with every situation.
The only thing I think is important is remember they exist. But I'd hate to see the confusion that would exist if NO-ONE had ANY Preconceived notions about ANYTHING.
When I see the coil on top of the stove glowing red, I don't need to touch it to see if the paint is dry yet.
Your bias is nothing more than a collection of what you have learned. It is not necessarily WRONG.
