Word is getting around, it 'is' a good time to demand a Congressional or Senate Committee look into this, our emails, calls, etc would be listened to.

When is CNN going to be asked, and when will they answer... truthfully, what is different about their coverage in Damascas, Ramallah, or Havana?

If they bowed down to Saddam, why should we trust them when they lied about censoring themselves before?

CNN is the whore of news networks. They chose to compromise their integrity for ratings. What is the value of their "reporting" from Baghdad if it wasn't the news but propaganda? Of what worth is their current or future "reporting". They may as well say they are the spokesperson for the liberal agenda and tell the truth for once.

"A top CNN executive kept quiet about some atrocities in Iraq (news - web sites) not because the network wanted to protect access but because it worried about putting lives in danger, CNN said Monday."

This explanation is insulting. CNN is made up of radical left wing media whores, period. They willingly aided and abetted Saddam's evil regime whereby millions of people were tortured, raped and murdered.

Had CNN done its job and reported the TRUTH about Saddam, some "lives may have been put in danger", but tens of thousands could have been saved by their exposure of his constant maniacal tyranny.

Eason Jordon made the mistake of thinking his confession was just another news story. His story proved what conservatives have known for years. CNN is dishonest and disgraceful, and it is the last network one should watch to get the truth.

Slanting the news to get access is standard operating procedure alas among far to many reporters. An network endorsing it however publically is rather unusual. In any event, it is good that this is all coming to light. The next time CNN covers an area ruled by a brutal dictator, I hope and trust that many will ask if CNN or whomever is doing something similar. Make them sweat, and then make them sweat some more. God how I love it.

Here the AP does its part to help CNN spin the story.

It is important not to "burn" your informants, but I'd bet many of those CNN supposedly was protecting would have been WILLING to sacrifice their lives to have their truth told. And how it must have grieved these "protected" people to discover that they'd told the truth and STILL had to watch many more of their country's citizens murdered needlessly. Were they protected because they begged to be protected? Or were they protected against their will, wanting the truth to get out?

Omitting the truth is deception. CNN's credibility just went below the zero they already had in my estimation.

CNN – What did CNN know, and when did they know it?
CNN - We bury (articles). You dig.
CNN – Cover (up) News Network
CNN - RIP

Darn! I though this was going to explain why CNN protected Clinton so heartily but doesn't do the same for Bush.
