This is just the coward's way out. With Saddam gone, CNN should have been cheering on our troops, our president, and telling these stories every hour, on the the hour, for the last two weeks; at least. This story, appearing in the N.Y. Simes, means little and helps no one.

"We also had to worry that our reporting might endanger Iraqis not on our payroll. I knew that CNN could not report that Saddam Hussein's eldest son, Uday, told me in 1995 that he intended to assassinate two of his brothers-in-law who had defected and also the man giving them asylum, King Hussein of Jordan. "

Why didn't he tell our govt about this?

I have to admit I don't know what to make of this article ..

Those at CNN KNEW what was going on in Iraq and FAILED to report on it .. instead they reported that Saddam was a warm fuzzy guy who wouldn't hurt anyone and made Bush look like an evil tyrant who wanted to control Iraq and killed women and children?

I don't think I can fully comment on the feelings I have at this moment .. I am too angry!

Thank you for the ping, Howlin.

Didn't think it was possible, but my opinion of CNN just diminished further. CNN is beneath contempt.

I found the article. My head is swimming with the implications. Not to mention the stories are getting more and more graphic of what exactly was going on over there.

This is astounding. As one Iraqi said, "thank you Mr. Bush."

Howlin, I guess we shouldn't be surprised. Absolutely horrifying.
