Last night (September 8th), CNN’s Lou Dobbs discussed the power of Obama’s czars and their lack of vetting by Congress. He mentions the recent resignation of Green Jobs Czar Van Jones amid growing controversy and FCC Diversity Officer Mark Lloyd’s campaign to shut down conservative talk radio. (video below)
However, his coverage states that Glenn Beck began his coverage of Van Jones “after” a group that Jones founded, Color of Change, began a campaign to pull advertisers from Beck’s program on Fox News. This is not an accurate statement. Beck actually exposed the radical politics of Van Jones in episodes that aired on July 23rd and July 28th. In fact, it is quite possible that the campaign by Color of Change was initiated in response to Beck’s coverage of their founder … and had little, if anything, to do with Beck’s comments regarding President Obama.

How bad is it?
Even the guys at CNN are starting to wonder...
And ... they even mentioned Van Jones ... finally ... on Friday (September 4th) ... just before he resigned. :)
Never count Lou out when it comes to going against the grain. He definitely decided to get on the Glenn Beck train and he’s one of those who will ride for the duration as he did with border security and illegal immigration. The powers at CNN and the rest of the CNN staff can’t be pleased.
