There is another article on here somewhere that discusses the last day when the minders didn't show up; in that article it said that on the last day, the "bag guy" came around and collected everything that was on each news organizations "tab" -- and they guessed he left the hotel that day with over $200,000.

Did anybody else read that?
 
I didn't see it on the forum, but it was in yesterday's L.A. Slimes. I talked about it on last night's show. (The Slimes' writer seemed to have an epiphany on Wednesday... and his article on Thursday was filled with "shocking" truths.)

Nice touch by Brit by saying others might regret their pre-war comments and Chris Matthews was highlighted. Good.

Agreed; Brit's always good, though.....yes, he cut to the most important parts, of both articles. This is enough to begin with.....there will be follow-up at some point; and though I can't listen to Rush during the day, I understand he pounded on this.....perhaps Sean might bring it up tonight, too.

CNN has failed the American people.

CNN has failed the Iraqi people.

CNN has failed the World.

CNN could have told the truth...but chose to tell lies. What will their punishment be?

People we need to bring the hammer down on CNN.

I'll guess you have some type of political conflict with this person or some such issue . How in the hell you cannot see what the problem is with the actions of CNN is stunning .

I really didn't think CNN could go any lower but they have managed!

They are nothing but a trash station; they've sunk to their own level: the sewer.

And people are surprised that Fox News is doing so well. It is because they don't have the sub-culture of intellectual crap and speak to fly-over country in terms they can understand. Like John Gibson calling the UN useless....

All this would NOT go undocumented......those who were kicked out would be screaming it out at the top of their lungs if they had any morals. That IS the problem! AND, they would have figured out ways to get their local people out with them...

CNN is still claiming it's "The news you can TRUST." Still lying.

Pardon my rant;

The odious stench of CNN's duplicity permeating from this editorial is hardly shocking considering we have been gagging on the foul odors of their Liberal Globalist agenda permeating through our television sets and into our homes from this 'news organization' these many years.

CNN is as objective and trustworthy as Pravda.

My lack of shock hardly lessens my outrage. Yellow journalism is too kind a description for CNN and other organizations like them. They are like France, Germany and Russia et al , pretending to be allies while prostituting themselves with those who would destroy us and our freedoms if given the opportunity. CNN is a propaganda tool sharing an agenda with the enemies of Liberty. The day CNN and other organizations like them die will be for America akin to the fall of the Berlin Wall.

That much of the 'educated class' unquestioningly feeds on CNN's lies as a baby fed at it's mother's breast has long left me wondering what kind of 'education' they received.

The possibility that there are Americans that will hear news of CNN's moral bankruptcy and continue to hold the views of CNN as their own is perhaps the most depressing of outcomes.

America! It's time to clean house!

Has CNN failed to report things which could have prevented 9/11? We will never know what would have happened if they had reported the truth years ago, and may never to know the things that they have failed to report.

Have we forgotten how CNN continually reported how bad the economy was during the '92 GWB1/Clinton election, when in fact the economy was in recovery?

CNN & their ilk have the power to shape the outcomes of elections and more, and therefore the future of our country. It is vile enough to align a 'news organization' with a political party/ agenda, but to carry the betrayal to the level of global politics is IMO on par with treason.

As a global news organization they have a tremendous responsibility and they have failed the cause of free people everywhere miserably and greatly assisted dictators of death.

How many people have died because of CNN?

I'm sure they'll talk about the looting; but I'm just as sure they'll talk about WHAT CNN KNEW BUT WOULDN'T TELL.
