"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?

My e-mail to CNN's feedback (which will undoubtedly be skimmed and deleted by some slack-jawed intern, but it made me feel better to write it):

So, now we learn that your journalistic presence in Iraq had nothing to do with reporting the truth. Indeed, the very fact that you had people in Iraq *prevented* you from reporting the truth. You prostituted your journalistic integrity to Saddam Hussein. Your presence in Iraq cost the lives of God knows how many innocent Iraqis. All so you could say, "We have people in Iraq."

Were your bragging rights worth it?

A good point.

However, if they would of told Clinton would he have done anything?

I keep thinking, did CNN or one of the other networks know about 9/11 in advance? If they did they obviously didn't tell. Any company that advertises on this network should be boycotted!
