Teleprompter v.s. No Teleprompter
Nice Deb —
That clever, snarky David Letterman came up with an ingenious way to display the wisdom of Obama’s reliance on his teleprompter…taking the opportunity to bash former President Bush by comparing Obama’s suave and debonair performance using it, to an inarticulate moment of Bush, not using a teleprompter:
Oh, haha. See how ...
Letterman: Teleprompter vs. No Teleprompter (Video)
Tennessee Guerilla Women —
David Letterman takes on the Obama critics who can't fathom why a president uses a teleprompter. The AP's Ron Fournier, of Hillary-hating fame, is particularly dedicated to spreading the absurd teleprompter meme, which just goes to further prove that the U.S. media is for dummies. They make an interesting point, why would a president want to be prepared and careful about what he says? The guy who had the job for the last eight years didn't need no stinkin' teleprompter! ...
When Wingnuts Manufacture Their Own Malarky…
Firedoglake —
This is one of those "when a tree falls in a forest" sorts of questions, I suppose. Because, frankly, I grow weary of the "I know you are, but what am I?" level of retort from the self-same bozos who lambasted anyone who dared question the mispronunciation of nuke-u-lar as unpatriotic communism.
I mean, hell, David Letterman is able to encapsulate "the stupid, it burns" in a mere matter of minutes. (YouTube)
But, honestly, watch these YouTubes and tell me that you don't get a sense of who might be well informed and who might be a wee bit on the disengaged and doltish side of things.
First one, George W. Bush at ...

Ten days ago, the Irish Prime Minister, Brian Cowen, visited the White House. For some reason, this always seems to occur on March 17th. I guess Ireland can go Cheney themselves the other 364 days, but on St. Patrick's Day it's all good. Anyhow, at his appearance Cowen screwed up at the teleprompter like he was ...
The Teleprompter Debate
Political Punch —
Previous | Main The Teleprompter Debate March 27, 2009 3:45 PM ABC News' Barry Freeman reports: President Obama has been criticized for relying too much on the use of a teleprompter -- you know, those slightly tilted boat-paddle-looking devices that flank each side of the presidential podium. They're essentially projection screens to his right and left from which he can read his speech, rather than speaking extemporaneously or with printed notes. I must admit that for those of us who work in TV news -- especially those, like me, who edit these pieces -- it can be difficult to find a camera shot of the president where one of these devices is not sticking up prominently ...
