This is what CNN didn't want to report....It's an Outrage (videos)

How many tens of thousands of people marching in protest does it take for CNN to acknowledge that it's happening? The Iranian people are outraged at the lack of coverage by CNN. The Iranian people need publicity about their plight and desire for a Free Iran in order to topple the regime. Iranians were shouting in English: "We Want Freedom".

If it isn't reported, who will know?

pThey fired them and got a NEW set of morons even MORE shallow and stupid.

True dat. I like each of them on a personal level. Their show is an embarrassing waste of time. F&F weekdays, too.

I watch Morning Joe if I've taken my blood pressure meds...

I agree... The media’s primary function now days is to sell advertising time with sensationalism in between.

Yes, show Carrie Prejean in a bikini, show the sexy, young murderer in Italy, then go to a segment on the latest recreation items.

Bread and Circuses.

Actually if any of you read Mousavi's statement you will see he strongly supports the Mullahs idea of the Islamic Republic. In other words he is no better than Imanutjob except his rhetoric is toned down slightly.

What chills the bones of the Mullahs is the chanting last night by many Iranians, "We don't want an Islamic government!", in English. I doubt if the majority feel that way but many do.

Until they throw off the Islamic Republic, which took the country from the Shah in 1979 with Carter's help, they will have rigged elections and primaries.

How is this different than CNN not reporting about Obama’s missteps and deconstruction of America?

It would really be cool if we had people in the streets screaming “we want freedom” right here.

You've got that right!!

The talking heads were ready to give credit to the ‘Bama if the Iranians ousted Monkey Man, but a rigged election and a crack down on democracy has no political capital for the ‘Bama, making it not newsworthy.

Iran is not Muslim, it's Persian.

Actually it is Muslim, but it is Persian, not Arabic.

That sentence is a grammatical clusterf**k.P> I read it 3 times and laughed harder at each reading. :oP

Remeber, CNN admitted during Saddam's time that they didn't make reports because they were afraid they'd be kicked out of the country. Apparently, they haven't changed.

It wasn't just that CNN wasn't reporting what was happening in Iraq, actually they were willfully propagandizing in favor of Hussein.

Evidently, CNN has a similarly cozy relationship with the mullahs.

Makes you wonder if they would've reported the seizure of the U.S. embassy back in '79. And, if it were reported, how it would've been reported.

What? The MiniTruth actually reporting the truth?

Take the blue pill, and tune in tomorrow.

I just heard an NPR news report - the lead story was the Iranian elections.

They made it sound like Ahmadinejad was being accepted by most of the Iranians and that the protests were limited to
a few youths turning over garbage cans.

No reports of widespread riots calling for “Freedom”!

Is this a preview of their report when Obama sends his storm-troops after the Tea Party protests?
