Brick TeeVee UNITY Edition!

Brick TeeVee is a preview of the Sunday Talking Head Shows beamed across America by Corporate Media, plus some good progressive radio and who will be on which show. If you have other Sunday Talkie shows' guest lists we don't have, please share below. Post your comments while you watch! It's fun, it's healthy and doggonit at least we'll know others can also see through the media manipulation that blankets our public airwaves. DEBUNK HERE!

So, with no further ado, I present to you This Week's Brick TeeVee entry!

ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

Now that the Democratic Primaries are apparently over, it's time for UNITY! Leading the UNITY TEAM is none other than HOWARD WOLFSON, the Clinton Campaign's Communications Director, on Face The Bob and Wolfie. U-Boat Captain Blitzer will also have on UNITY BROKER DIANE FEINSTEIN where The Bearded One will try make her say "Uncle!" about what was said at her house between the two "former" rivals. Not to be unscooped, THIS GEORGE gets a crack at FEINSTEIN, too, along with former frontrunner JOHN KERRY. Look for CHARLIE "Where's my General" RANGEL on Face the Bob with JIM WEBB. Throwing wrenches into the Big Unity Party are GOP heavies and prime brick targets LINDSEY GRAHAM on This-n-That Week and JON KYL with Wolfie. To have someone else (in fact the entire NBC Election Team) figure out this whole Unity Thang FOR you wake up early for Meet the Tim at a special 8 am start. Do check out Ring of Fire radio for some very interesting discussions about the demise of the GOP and more. The Brick TeeVee Crew has now been watching dirt grow since the garden went in, catching rays and filling up on Viitamin D. Despite the chicken wire, there have been INTRUDERS into the garden and talk of the electric fence has resurfaced. I'm urging some "less extreme" measures be used. I might have to hire Howard Wolfson!
