"All the news that's fit to print."

"If accurate reporting from Iraq was impossible, why was access to this dictatorship so important in the first place? And what truths about the thugs who run other totalitarian states — like North Korea, Cuba and Syria — are fearful and/or access-hungry reporters hiding from the American public?" Mr. Noyes said.

Do tell Mr. Jordan.

Wonder what else they are hiding.. ?

I bet this will do lousy things for their ratings. Whenever you see a smilin' reporter on CNN you have to wonder if someone's being tortured just off camera.

VO (James Earl Jones): They decide...We report. This is CNN.

They could have just had Uday fax the stories in.
Maybe it looks more like real news if you can have a reporter read it from Bagdad.

To him, it was critical to have a CNN presence in Iraq, no matter what. As a result, many things that CNN knew about went unreported.

It would have been better to have no journalists in Iraq, since they couldn’t tell us what was really happening, anyway. Viewers would have known there might be awful things going on in Baghdad. But suspecting and not seeing would have been better than seeing reporters, and not being told by them about the awful things happening beyond the cameras.

When will CNN reveal to us why they are the only US news network to whom Castro granted a Cuban bureau? Hmmmmmmmmmmm?

All of CNN's Havana Bureau chief Lucia Newman's reports on Cuba are nothing but feel-good happy talk.
