It's not getting any better for CNN..When one group is accused of lack of honesty it spills over to all so the media is hitting them hard.

If this doesn't say that CNN = Baghdad Bob, I don't know what would.

And remember the other day when Iraqi UN guy al Douri was leaving New York for Syria -- he made a point of going over to the CNN guy and giving him a big hug and kiss.
