Show Cancelled by MSNBC

Guess who had the highest rated show in the nighttime lineup on the cable "all news" channel MSNBC for the last six months (September, 2002 to February 2003) ??
 
Answer: Phil Donahue.
 
Guess who was cancelled by MSNBC effective February 28, 2003?
 
Answer: Phil Donahue.
 
Here's why, SHORT ANSWER:
 
The Zionist/Bushie Freemason Ruling Elite must have NON-STOP cheerleading for the attack on Iraq - and they must have this non-stop cheerleading 24 hours a day, 7 Days a Week -- on EVERY major media outlet in the weeks ahead, -- and maybe the months ahead.
 
So, Bye-Bye Donahue.
 
BACKGROUND: For months - as Donahue flew in the face of the Zionist Party Line week after week - a din of media personalities on other networks and on talk radio repeated often that Donahue was "bombing" with "low ratings" because he was a re-tread liberal.
 
Now it turns out that either these media figures were lying, or someone was lying to them - for it's been broadcast everywhere from FOX News to the Cincinnati Enquirer that Donahue was the HIGHEST rated night time MSNBC program.
 
In fact, Donahue was the only nighttime cable show that exhibited independence on the middle east question. The tired old Bush/War/Israel cheerleading heard on O'Reilly, Hannity & Colmes, the other MSNBC shows, and all CNN shows (in a slightly more subtle fashion) - paled in comparison to the robust debate offered by Donahue.
 
Donahue, an hour long talk show of the same name which aired week nights on MSNBC at 8 PM and 11 PM EST, was the ONLY nighttime show on the national media -- anywhere -- which was providing PROLONGED debate on the apparently imminent US aggression against Iraq, -- AND he was giving BOTH sides a chance to speak at length.
 
Under these circumstances, the "attack Iraq" contingent was getting their brains handed to them on a platter. The Ruling Elite could NOT have this, not even on one regular show.
 
Now I am aware that on most issues, Phil Donahue is a mushy liberal who seems to truly believe many of the premises which lead a person to end up in that mental swamp. I am aware of this. But I am telling you that on all the shows he did that I saw - he was bringing on all sides of the question, and he was giving everyone a FAIR chance to get their message out; he was taking impromptu, unscripted comments from the audience, --
and impromptu, unscripted calls over the phone from people around the USA, a la the original Donahue show.
 
For instance, one night a caller confronted a Donahue guest, a shameless neo-con warmongerer, who has been a high level advisor to both Democratic and Republican Presidents, Kenneth Adelman.
 
The caller said in effect (paraphrase): " Let's cut to the bottom line, Mr. Edelman. You're a Zionist Jew and you and your crowd are pushing America into a series of wars that are not in our nation's interest. You are more loyal to Israel than to the United States of America."
 
Oops! Adelman "deplored" such unpleasantness, and Donahue wished that we could all disagree "civilly" - but, this type of comment got on the air.
 
But the value of the recent Donahue show was the prolonged debated where spokesmen from ALL sides got their fair say.
 
Another example: on two occasions Donahue had on Jared Taylor, author of "Paved with Good Intentions" - to argue his controversial idea that separation of the races may be best for everyone. Donahue brought on guests to vigorously argue against Taylor, as he did himself - but this was the type of show he was doing: robust debate on controversial and cutting edge issues. Another show dealt with "reparations." Another dealt with abortion. This was BY FAR the best nighttime show on any of
the 5 Big TV Networks.
 
Also, it should be remembered that Phil Donahue's wife is Marlo Thomas, daughter of the late comedian Danny Thomas - of Lebanese descent. So perhaps Phil has become familiar over the years with the Lebanese and Arab side of the middle east conflict.
 
Within hours after the cancellation, Phil Donahue was quoted on the "kinda" alternative website - the Drudge Report - as saying that his show was gaining traction, and a six month trial was much too short a time period to establish his show on MSNBC - which network trails far behind the other two 24 hours cable news networks, CNN and FOX.
 
(Drudge is another media Zionist -- by his own admission over his syndicated radio show. Although Drudge postures as a renegade against the Big Media - he is another example of controlled opposition. It was the Big Media which made the Drudge internet site famous in the first place - something the Ruling Elite would NEVER do for Michael A. Hoffman II, Carol A. Valentine, realnews247.com, votefraud.org, CODOH, the Institute
for Historical Review, the Barnes Review, or any other website that was actually seriously fighting against their New World Order.)
 
Then, a day or so after the cancellation of Donahue was announced circa February 21, it "leaked out" (according to some reports), that Phil Donahue was the HIGHEST RATED show on MSNBC. And yet he was STILL cancelled.
 
This fact of these "highest ratings for Donahue" was confirmed by neo-con water boy Sean Hannity on both his radio show and on his FOX cable TV talk show. Hannity had been repeating for months the falsehood that Donahue had low ratings.
 
Shows like "Hardball" with Chris Matthews, "Nachman" with Jerry Nachman, and "The Abrams Report" with Dan Abrams - were all KEPT on MSNBC. Why? These shows can be counted on to be "Iraq Attack" Cheerleaders. Yes, Chris Matthews will raise some troubling questions about the "attack Iraq" push, -- but he generally concludes by saying something like: "Well, the war is coming anyway; the decision has already been made." That type of faint, or fumbling the ball at the 10 yard line - is all the Judeo-Masonic Ruling Elite asks. It is the "pinch of incense" at the
altars of their false gods.
 
To put things in perspective, ABC, NBC, and CBS - combined -- reach about 30 million households with their evening news programs. The cable news networks -- combined -- reach about 3 million households, at least as of the year 2000 - it may be higher now. By these figures, O'Reilly, the top rated cable show, gets an audience of about 1.4 million. Donahue - who was head to head with O'Reilly -- was pulling according to the ratings books about 400,000 per night. So with another six months, he may have been at least 2/3 as popular as O'Reilly - and MSNBC badly needs to gain ground as they are running 3rd in the CNN, FOX, MSNBC race for viewers. (How reliable these ratings systems are - or whether the powers-that-be tell us the truth about them, are important subjects, but subjects for another time.)
 
But our nation is so financially enslaved that the top Zionist Jews are now able to arrange for 24 hour cheerleading for their war on Iraq - using American soldiers - and they are arranging this on ON ALL MAJOR MEDIA OUTLETS, both TV and Radio.
 
Here is, I believe, a related local example that may interest you: here in Cincinnati, on WKRC talk radio, Pat Barry held down the 3 PM to 6 PM slot every weekday.
 
Pat Barry is a former TV weatherman personality who is much more
comfortable covering the "Taste of Cincinnati" eating fest, or
"Octoberfest" - than he is dealing with intricate social issues or controversial current events.
 
Pat is a nice guy in person - a real nice guy. But he is a talk show host who doesn't seem to like controversy all that much, and easily loses his cool if challenged too vigorously by callers. He had been on the air for 4 years - and suddenly disappeared in early February, 2003 - about one month ago.
 
But I know someone who buys radio ads regularly from WKRC (550 AM) for their business. This businessman tells me that when he was trying to buy time at Christmas 2002, the salesman was offering to GIVE him several spots on Rush Limbaugh (noon to 3 PM) to forego one spot on Pat Barry (3 PM to 6 PM). That means Pat Barry was sold out, and spots on Rush Limbaugh were going begging. (Not hard to believe, as Rush' predictable GOP/Bush worship makes the show hard to listen to these days, and makes
for quite boring listening much of the time.)
 
Then, in February -- as the Pat Barry show was being replaced, the salesman told this same business man that the replacement was a puzzlement to the sales force -as Barry's ratings were HIGHER THAN EVER.
!!!!
 
Solution? The same as with the Donahue cancellation: Pat Barry was appealing to enough Cincinnatians by dealing with local issues to have his highest ratings ever - BUT, he is NOT comfortable with international issues. Nor do I imagine Pat Barry could ever be whole-heartedly for the type of devastating hi-tech attack Bush is about to launch against Iraqi
civilians.
 
Judeo-Masonry needs some REAL RABID war-mongerers to man the airwaves 24 hours a day - to tout the Party Line, and to step on, ridicule and treat as rudely as possible any caller who seeks to alert the audience to facts or viewpoints being hidden from them by the Zionist controlled major media. So who was brought in to replace Pat Barry?
 
Why, it is warmongerer Sean Hannity -- who gets paid several million dollars per year to push the Zionist Party line. As an Irish looking Irish Catholic - Hannity is ESPECIALLY valuable to the Ruling Elite. Hannity's in his mid thirties, and he still apparently thinks that he is where he is -- because of his talent. (Ha!)
 
We believe that when the Iraq war is over - if it goes fairly quickly - that Sean Hannity will disappear from WKRC, and Pat Barry will be brought back to again do the local-oriented show in the 3 PM to 6 PM slot in Cincinnati. Pat Barry did not say good-bye to his audience, but glossed over something one evening about doing a project in Florida for awhile, and then he disappeared as Hannity appeared in his place. We'll keep you updated on what happens. It would be interesting to know if
this type of replacement happened on Clear Channel major radio stations in other major cities.
 
I remember once reading years ago in a John Birch Society Bulletin a Robert Welch piece in which he said that the Conspiracy's goal was to have Communist commentators singing the praises of the Revolutionary program on all media outlets 24 hours a day. Well -
 
We're pretty close to that now - except that the Communist mask has been thrown away -- for now -- in favor of the "neo-conservative" mask.
 
But behind the mask du jour - there's always the Zionist/Jewish Supremist - or their "educated" goy, a la Sean Hannity.
 
Phil Donahue had to go. Even his one hour per day would have broken the momentum of the 24 hour a day cheer leading atmosphere for Israel, for the attack on Arab countries starting with Iraq, and for the police state the Zionist Supremists are laboring mightily to bring to America.
