I figured they would pass the blame. Thanks for sharing the response.

I let CNN know I would be boycotting their services, netscapes services, and the services of all of their sponsors. They quickly sent me a reply: From: "Admin, CNNia" Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have given it our immediate attention and want to make you aware that the jpeg image was not CNN property and was not created, disseminated or posted by CNN at any time as is alleged. It originated at another company, and first appeared on Netscape.com. CNN personnel did not circulate or label the image, and CNN had no knowledge of it until it surfaced on other Web sites. Again, thank you for taking time to bring this to our attention and allowing us the opportunity to address it. Sincerely, CNN Public Information

Here's the new image name:
http://cdn-channels.netscape.com/cppops/features/n/ne_election5/i/georgelaura135.jpg

Netscape fired the employee (ir)responsible, but CNN used a pointer to the picture, so whomever edited that page for CNN also needs to be fired and blackballed.
