Black-hooded Thug Disrupts Chris Matthews show |
2004-08-31 |
Drudge So far just a blurb with no link: Attack Attempt On MSNBC Chris Matthews... Live On Air... Street Set Outside Convention... Hooded protester jumps security line ... Police move in immediatly... Guard Tackled... Bush/Cheney supporters gathered near show set at Herald Square were pushed and spat on by protesters, fake blood thrown while Matthews remained on air... Developing... There is also a long string at Free Republic, where one poster claims that a lefty outlet has attributed the attack to an Abu Ghraib protest. As often happens with Freeper links, I couldn't make heads or tails out of this one. It seems possible to me that the real target was not the fifth columnist Matthews, but his guest, EPA Administrator and former N.J. Governor Christine Todd Whitman. |

#6 exactly! Why would they attack Matthews? He's been in the oppo pocket (and ratings cellar) for a while....his numbers suck! Did he speak over the protester like he normally does Swiftvets and W backers? No? then it was a prefab attack for ratings |
