In the last few weeks, CNN has suffered a series of embarrassing incidents calling into question its news judgment and ability to meet the most basic standards of fairness in reporting on Israel.

The CNN angle should surprise no one. It's the same Eason Jordan who colluded with Saddam's intelligence apparatus by not reporting atrocities in return for wider access than the network's competitors.

I can`t watch CNN anymore (it has been about 2 years now), I also don`t watch NBC news (5 years), ABC news (never) , CBC (That is the Canadian Broadcast ...) news, BBC news... and so on ... their reporting disgusts me with their anti American reporting, it is incredible how vile they have become... thank goodness for the Internet. Why, I am not even American and find these stations offensive...
The problem is up here we don`t even get FOX (well at least no the legal way !!) Thank goodness for FOX...

I forgot to mention...I always new the media was radically Anti Israeli, but never would I have thought they`d be doing the same to the U.S. never. Boy, was I wrong!
