Jordan Story Explodes (CNN exec)
the fourth rail: Eason Jordon, CNNs Coverup and a Call to Arms
How Crazy Are They? (CNN big says US troops targeted and killed 12 journalists in Iraq)
-The Access of Evil-- CNN's Duplicity --
Jordan has a long history of deception.
I think there's a padded room with this nutcake's name on it.
Isn't it astounding how these Media Jackals think they can run their mouths with no regard for the truth, and expect that there will be no repercussions?
They truly are stuck in the last century, while the Information Age whizzes past them.
Sweet..........
Thanks for looking- he's quite a piece of work.
I listen to Hugh Hewitt..........He's been on this HEAVY....
CNN still having this nutball on it's payroll, just shows their base of their idelogical bent(i.e wacko leftist).
This Butthead and Dan Rather are just the two sores that are getting the attention. The whole media is covered with lepers and their sores.

I listen to Hugh Hewitt and taped Chris Matthews weekend show because Hugh was on the panel. The look on Matthews' face when Hewitt mentioned Jordan's statemens was true astonishment. He, working in media six days a week, with a wife who is involved in TV news, really knew nothing about what Jordan had said in a room full of reporters, at a panel moderated by David Gergen - another person heavily involved with political information media.
Hewitt's conclusion - back on his Monday radio program - is that the people of the left really are not aware of news that we are aware of. We know what they know but they stay away from our 'circles of information' and are truly uninformed.
That's good to hear- we don't get his show in my area, but I've been favorably impressed by his writings.

Eason Jordan Updates
According to Sisyphean Musings, the World Economic Forum will not release their recording of the discussion in which Eason Jordan accused the US military of deliberately targeting journalists.
Jim Geraghty has a lot of interesting stuff on the story today, including a well-done rebuttal of another muddle-headed piece by Jude Nagurney Camwellwho employs the shopworn disingenuous technique of cherry-picking an extreme-sounding comment from one reader (out of thousands of comments daily) in order to smear LGF.
Howard Kurtz, who has a professional association with CNN, weighs in with a noncommittal piece that comes off as a weak semi-defense of Eason Jordan: Eason Jordan, Quote, Unquote.
And with that, I suspect mainstream media is hoping this annoying controversy will now fade quietly away. But the issue of CNNs appalling bias is going to keep coming up, because (as Ive written several times before), the problem goes much deeper than Eason Jordan. At the same News Xchange conference in Portugal where Jordan told the audience that journalists had been tortured by the US military, another CNN executive, Chris Cramer, said that journalists were being deliberately targeted for seeking out the truth.
UPDATE at 2/8/05 3:27:52 pm:
By the way, Id like to publicly offer to host the video or audio of the Eason Jordan discussion in Davos, if anyone reading this happens to have a copy.
A Site Whose Time Has Come: Easongate
Bill Roggio and associates launch a new subdomain, devoted to the Eason Jordan US Soldiers Kill Journalists controversy: Easongate.
