Ollie North revealed an exact transcript of a similar statement made by Jordan in November.

No way could CNN survive this.

I would not bet against you. Besides, it's probably too late for The Spitter to change his program and yank whatever Bush-bashing segments they have lined up for tonight.

Let's not forget the Editor of the New York Times we ran a couple of years ago over the Jaysun Blair incident. Funny I can remember Jaysun's name, but not the Editor.
