CNN's still around?????

This title could be misinterpreted. For CNN, facts aren't a problem. They make 'em up as necessary.

Who TH are these people? Must be some kind of power brokers for liberal swill.

CNN told lie after lie after lie.....about Saddam Hussein’s regime so that they could keep access to the country, despite the fact that their access did no good since they didn’t report the facts.

BINGO!

Perhaps what poor, persecuted Christiane and CNN are so upset about is that it is so much harder nowadays to make up facts and report them as truth, since there is decent competition in the cable news business, both from Fox News and MSNBC. Fact checking is no longer an afterthought; it’s a must unless you want to get called on it and then taken to the woodshed by your competitors.

DOUBLE-BINGO!

My favorite line is:

"All of the entire body politic in my view, whether it's the administration, the intelligence, the journalists, whoever, did not ask enough questions, for instance, about weapons of mass destruction."

Yeah, we didn't hear hardly enough questions about WMD, did we?

Is CNN the same network that had psycho boy General Strangelove Clark pontificating about how it would take six months to capture Baghdad?

The Cartoon Channel has higher ratings than CNN!! ROFLMAO

Congratulations to Cathryn for 1) writing well, and 2) getting published. Hats off to you, CC. And thanks for following up on Amanpour's extraordinary admission of her own (and CNN's) self-imposed incompetence.

[Mr. Silverback]

As usual, Cathryn does such a good job of using the lib's words against them that I can't read the whole thing before I blow my top and post:

All of the entire body politic in my view, whether it's the administration, the intelligence, the journalists, whoever, did not ask enough questions, for instance, about weapons of mass destruction. I mean, it looks like this was disinformation at the highest levels."

Never mind that this woman is a household-name professional journalist and she uses "like" only slightly less often than Moon Unit Zappa in "Valley Girl." If there was a big WMD conspiracy, Christie baby, why were Bill Clinton and Madeline Albright in on it?

Let's also not forget two things:

First, on 9/11, the WMDs were boxcutters. And second...

SALMAN PAK, YOU TWIT!!!
