And so far, freepers are the only ones asking how it is that kerry was delivering arms to the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia.

I wonder how the "free speech" idiots will take this one? First, it's free speech for a jerk like Ward Churchill to slander, lie, etc. But it's NOT okay for Harvard prez Summers to make a comment, in private, about the truth because some feminist twit got her granny panties in a knot.

Steel cage death match with the mainstream media. The FReepers are ready.

...hasn't admitted that he's done anything wrong other than "tarnish" CNN.

Well, he didn't even really admit that. He used the cowardly weasel approach -- trying to claim that he was doing the noble thing by protecting CNN from being "unfairly tarnish". What a pussycat. :s/cat//

I like your list, but, frankly, I don't care about MoDo. She is so nuts no one with a brain reads that, or could understand it if they did.

Send the list to Karl Rove. According to the Dummies he can take down any member of the media he wants to.

He doesn't have to resign yet so that cnn can keep its "untarnished" image. He just has to release the tapes so that the truth can be known--hahahahah. OOps truth and cnn don't equate I guess.

I understand, but a little wine on a rainy day sometimes is a helper for some of us :)

I tried to call Hewitt several times but got no answer. I wonder if the show was taped earlier today since they are talking about Duane skiing (presumably in the daylight). I didn't hear them saying anything about the show not being live but I could have missed it. Hope ole' Hugh isn't getting caught with his pants down.

I think it is live on location. I have emailed him, but he is not talking about it, or taking calls. If he has the hour of the movies he will get live callers, but it looks the “information reformation” has – on this occasion – bypassed Hugh.
