CNN is the propaganda arm of the anti-American Socialist worldwide conspiracy that includes radical Muslims, Communists and Democrats.

Defame, defund, defang the Access of Evil.

The Left cannot be debated, persuaded or convinced.

They can only be vanquished.

I dearly hope the presence of CNN in airports, hotels, other countries, etc, begins to fade a little faster...

The big story NOT mentioned here is that CNN's Brent Sadler proceeded on live TV to make an armed reconnocense of Tikrit in which (if you listen to your VHS tapes carefully) Sadler CLEARLY states that his security (hired gunsel) opened up with an AK-47 on some Iraqis that "looked threatening".

Then, 5 or 8 minutes later. AFTER they fired on these Iraqi people, Sadler (who was driving) ran a road block and was fired on. (What did he expect?).

The key point is CNN Fired first!

Further, the Marines were only an hour behind them, so any captivity CNN might have suffered would have been short lived at worst.

So in the chase for a scoop to save its' failing rateings, CNN engages in combat ahead of the front line.

As far as I know Iraq never hurt any news media (although several were hurt by U.S. fire), and yet CNN finds it necessary go hire armed thugs and shoot their way into and out of Tikrit.

CNN = Collaborators' News Network

Still reporting on that great Cuban health care system while dissidents are imprisoned, tortured and shot just off camera.

Well, I tried to be hopeful!

I was gathering these links when the "C-word" caught my eye and just zoomed in without further thought...

We used to sell a sign that read:

Just about every place I go with a waiting room has CNN on... I think I'll start complaining.

I actually hadn't thought of it that way- thanks for your perspective.

I really appreciate the time that you spend gathering all this information together for us.

I, on the other hand, haven't even managed to make a folder in My Favorites to drag the URLs I've saved about this into. :-)
