On Friday, Sen. Cruz, along with Sens.

*** “In fact, Democrats at both the state and national level have echoed many of these concerns. For example, former President Bill Clinton has warned that ‘[a] lot of people who have been trying to take this authority away from the U.S. want to do it for the sole purpose of cracking down on Internet freedom and limiting it and having governments protect their backsides instead of empower[ing] their people.’ ***

CNN Got Pounded All Day For Editing Clinton’s Response To Bombing
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3470912/posts
CNN has been heavily criticized over several incidents where the network selectively edited content, to include a glaring example just this weekend regarding a statement from Hillary Clinton in response to an explosion that rocked a Manhattan neighborhood Saturday, but that did not stop Jake Tapper from going to the well one more time.
The “State of the Union” host was interviewing New Jersey Governor Chris Christie on Sunday when he referenced “a contrast” between Clinton and rival Donald Trump in commenting on the explosion in New York, noting that Trump said it was a bomb within minutes, while Clinton waited until hours later before commenting.
Tapper then played a clip of Clinton saying, “I think it’s important to know the facts about any incident like this. I think it’s always wiser to wait until you have information before making conclusions.”
A preceding comment from the Democratic nominee calling the explosion a “bombing” was edited out… even as Trump was being called into question for using the term “bomb.”
