Did anyone see the snarky Hannah Storm . . .

. . . interview with Michael Moore on CBS's morning show?

PHEW! was she defensive!

Thought I would shoot out an email, here it is . . .

Dear Ms. Storm,
Your interview last Friday with Michael Moore was absolutely terrible.

It's obvious how YOU feel about the movie, and it shows.
Know what?
I don't care!

Throughout the interview you parroted Bush's positions, and got defensive several times with gems like, "You know what, we'll move past that" after Moore rightly said that the CBS evening news promoted Bush propaganda for the Iraq war.

Your bad attitude shined all the way through!

How sensitive can you be? How biased can you be?

How about writing a new book on calmly laying out both sides of an idea and letting people decide for themselves.

It could be about journalism, and by the by, I have yet to see it from you. You are not a sports anchor anymore, and if I wanted to see moronic macho BS thrown around I will watch Dick Cheney on FOX news throwing the F-Bomb.

You are a GREAT promoter of yourself and your books, now how about doing some research and promoting the news.

Not the talking points fed to you by the corporate masters supporting your literary career, but something like, oh . . . HOW BUSH LIED AMERICA INTO WAR. You know, something with a real edgy bite to it!

Good luck with the whole unbiased reporting thing!

Best,
Prodigal Son
