Climate change and the missing Malaysian flight are important to CNN. The Obama administration’s continued evasion of serious investigation into the 2012 attack on the American consulate in Benghazi, not so much.

At least that’s what Jeff Zucker, president of CNN Worldwide, told a New York Times reporter at the Deadline Club’s annual awards dinner Monday night.

“We’re not going to be shamed into [Benghazi coverage] by others who have political beliefs that want to try to have temper tantrums to shame other news organizations into covering something,” Zucker said. “If it’s of real news value, we’ll cover it.”

This would make one heck of a billboard. I wish I had money and I would do it if lawful.

Note to Jeff Zucker: Fake scandals don’t have four body bags. This one does and somebody screwed up and we just want to know who. IS that ok with you?

Won’t turn that crapola on. They’re in the toilet, in other sense of the word, anyway.

Gowdy gets those clowns on record giving the military the order to stand down or countermand a rescue/ reinforcement attempt, then you got Obama and Hillary.

Zucker said. “If it’s of real news value, we’ll cover it.”

Are you implying that the murder of 4 Americans by muslims is somehow not of “real news value”

Very childish, Zucker.Take your ball and go home just because you may not like the results and it hurts your party/ideology. You’d of made a good loyal nazi back in the day, ignoring and/or blinded to all the wrongs. They were democrat socialists after all.

I won’t be ‘shamed’ into watching your piece of snot network. Unless I am at the airport, of course.

I think we need to take Zucker et al and air drop them into a terrorist camp.

Once there give them a radio to call for help, and let them see how it feels to be abandoned by their Messiah when the S hits the fan.
