Jerry Springer made an innocuous comment stating that he respects Sarah Palin but doesn't agree with her or politics and doesn't want her to be president. O.K., he's entitled to his (predictable) opinion. Not satisfied with that, CNN has to make a snarky little comment that now, Jerry Springer is a 'Friend of Palin'. Probably hoping to somehow denigrate Palin by associating her with a guy known for being the host of a stupid TV show featuring the underbelly of U.S. society and passing it off as entertainment. Lame - but then, it came from CNN.
