I guess Cafferty won’t be joining CNN in Beijing this summer.

I wonder if I can join in that lawsuit? I’d like my $1, as well.

I don't know why, they've fallen all over themselves apologizing for the words of a rogue newsman.

I don't think they've shot him yet, but it's early still.

It’s hard to figure out who to support - a huge number of communists, or the Chinese.

After lawyers fees and taxes all you’ll be left with is fifteen cents.

Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu characterized it as “spontaneous activity by Chinese civilians”.”

In Commie societies there is no such thing as “spontaneous activity, that isn't government sanctioned. The last non government sanctioned “spontaneous activity by Chinese civilians” was Tianimen square. Followed by the spontaneous activity by Chinese Red Army to quell it.

Yep, it’s going to heat up a lot more with China after the Olympics. China and the U.S. used each other for mutual convenience with the American people on the short end of the stick as well as the Chinese people. Only the very wealthy elites in both countries running multinational corporations saw the loot. Meanwhile, we allowed China to commit massive sanctioned and non sanctioned espionage. They now have advanced U.S. weaponry and effective combined arms military strategy.

It’s a win, win... all villians turn on each other eventually. Cafferty is the biggest crack-pot goon ever, sponsered by the Confused News Network, blasting the Cheap Chinese Products, being reported by the major news outlet known for airbrushed news photos ...Reuters. It is almost like Hillary and Obama tangling... win win...

This is really amusing. To make it perfect, CNN will lose the suit and take the $1.3 Bil out of Cafferty’s pay.

Don’t encrypt the satellite signal for a month and offer free service to everyone in China as payment. Chinese love free stuff.

Looks like it’s back to the dive bar alley, for Cafferty.
