Excellent! At least the Media Research center is paying attention! Aaron Brown should be e-mailed to make a public retraction.

It's nice to see where the ever so important and somber Aaron Brown gets his news and point of view.

There is, as you know, a story that's been circulating on the Web...

CNN. The font of "responsible" journalism. < /sarcasm>

Nothing new. Brown was used early in Project Get Hatfill - spinning the "Greendale School" and other myths and innuendoes.

The whole story and background is here too -

"The story also managed to get discussed on CNN. As CNS News noted, Aaron Brown mentioned the news story circulating "that there was at some point a conversation between the president and a CIA consultant where the consultant directly told the president that this African uranium deal was bogus." David Ensor told Brown the story sounded suspect to him, but millions of ears had the seed planted in their heads by the mention. TruthOut was undoubtedly pleased.

"Games people play in the middle of the night..."

Meanwhile, TruthOut was apparently working to cover some tracks. They removed a copy of the story they had posted on their website, putting in its place at the exact same URL a copy of a Washington Post article. As was captured over at Free Republic, however, their search engine's cache provided evidence that they did have the story up at one time. Later, they published a copy of Thompson's retraction"

It is getting better. Check this out [Truthout trying to hide stealing a fraudulent article]
Anyway, might as well plug my blog. It has links to all of these threads, and a few other stories I have been following are 1) Liberia, 2) The Lawrence decision, 3) Charlie Chan, 4) ALA, and 5) conservatism in general.

Looks like CNN's agreement to be Saddam friendly is still in place after all.

You know, there ought to be a way to exploit this internet rumor mongering by topline journalists. We should concoct some sort of scheme that is ready to be kicked off at a crucial point in the elections next year.

I thought they replaced Aaron with some Anorexic blonde, black, or Asian chick as is typical at CNN.

So condescending of him! How many people missed this yesterday, and if they did, could it be because they have lives to tend to?

Somebody help me here. I know I read here on FR in the past two days that someone was going to get the retraction info to Aaron Brown before his show aired? I know I didn't dream it. Does anyone else remember that post?

I believe is a Cannadian like Jennings is; Brown started on ABC overnight TV news.

With another Canadian name Talia Sh----?

What's the deal of ABC TV using anti-Americans from the CBC farm teams?

Brown is still around. I thought the powers-that-be dubbed him too creepy to be on television.

Aaron Brown like the rest of his dimwitted group don't care what they spread. And the more false, the better.
