CNN

But they apparently have no such “respect” for Christianity; they didn’t hesitate for a second to show this image of the virgin Mary made out of elephant dung and pictures of female genitalia: New York, Brooklyn museum settle funding dispute

".....yet, they were all over "Piss-Christ" as "art".. Go figure. "

It took a nano-second to figure. The MSM hate Jesus Christ and His followers, and have allied themselves with all of Christ's other enemies. The spiritual battle for control of the earth is raging. These are 'those' times.

But now they won't show pictures that will inflame the Muslim world because the anger would be directed at THEM.

Islam's a "religion of peace". Why should CNN be afraid?

[Sipicaknobius]

This only shows the utter hypocrisy of "CNN". For as long as I can remember, the MSM has yelled and screamed about the public's right to know. Now when their offices and property might be in jeopardy, CNN has decided to honor the wishes of the Islamic terrorists, thus becoming a propaganda arm of their beliefs. The obvious lesson for Christians is to act like the Islamic terrorists if they want their religion respected by the MSM. It is evident by the reporting of CNN that it only agrees and complies with the wishes of terrorists thugs. It reminds me of the newspapers of Nazi Germany and Communist Russia.

CNN has disgraced itself again by collaborating with an enemy of freedom. First, it was Sadam Hussein during Gulf War I, and now it is with the terrorists. CNN's political positions are always on the side of the dictator or the extremist left. CNN represents everything that is vulgar and "Anti-American".

Ya'all have it wrong.

The MSM won't publish these cartoons out of deep respect for George Bush, who said he found them to be offensive.

You don't have to go back to 2000. Blitzer showed some horribly anti-Semetic cartoons from recent Arab papers just today, to an unsympathetic Saudi Ambassador.

"Courage, CNN. Courage, courage."

Good reminder at this time, Enterprise!

Cnn taking the side of the enemy again.

Isn't respect something that must be earned?

I wonder what even one thing Islam is repsonsible for, that might be deserving of anyones respect.

If I've been correctly informed, the situation has been exacerbated by the inclusion of some images that were never part of the original series. The last that I heard was that these may have been added by fanatical Islamacist elements (oxymoron) to heighten the outrage. How is the truth to be made clear if the original documents are not made known by the NEWS MEDIA??? Of course CNN is well known for their fair coverage of pre-attack Iraq - remember?

Re Rodney King. Your quote:

they deliberately showed the footage of the beating to keep the riots going

Yes, many,many times did I see the replay. Then very rarely they showed the senseless beating of Reginald Denny, the white truck driver. He suffered brain damage. An innocent victim.

When this tragic man cried and slobbered (sorry Reg,I had to say this) and cried again that he loved the perpetrators, the CNN had a field day.

54 persons were murdered over the riots- mostly Hispanics and Korean descent. As to CNN.

Criminal Bastards.

This is the first in the many steps of enforcing Sharia: First, terrify the non believers into silence.

Maybe Christians should riot and burn down CNN. I'm sure CNN would understand.

How about something more subtle - like an image of the CNN logo in a jar of urine? And the CBS, NBC, etc. Wouldn't be long before an image of other religious symbols would be depicted in a jar of urine. The MSM could cover it as "art".

[ApplegateRanch]

Why is this a surprise? NEVER forget CNN's deal with the devil in Baghdad, pre-war.

They seem to love kissing Private Parts, while ignoring Major Story.

I am waiting to see what will be shown by the MSM at the upcoming 5th Anniversary of 09/11/2001. I remember how we have had endless commemorations of JFK in November and it is generally the 5th anniversary that starts the 'historical' viewpoint process where the emotions have subsided.

Given that there has been a virtual ban on the even slightly horrific pictures of that day for the last several years, it will be most interesting to see how this anniversary is handled. Remember kiddies, it comes just 7 weeks prior to the '06 elections and how many still believe in the unbiased MSM - hmmm?

[ApplegateRanch]

CNN wouldn't know how to report truth if it bit them on the nose.

They are MUCH more worried about a moose biting their arm, than they are about the truth biting their nose.

"Maybe Christians should riot and burn down CNN. I'm sure CNN would understand."

Well, apparently thats the worldview that garners their respect and understanding nowadays anyways.
