"After 23 years at CNN, I have decided to resign in an effort to prevent CNN from being unfairly tarnished by the controversy over conflicting accounts of my recent remarks regarding the alarming number of journalists killed in Iraq," he said in a note to CNN staff.

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

How sweet the sound....of the MSM cracking up!

CNN is going Suck Worse

Anybody in the market for a new tagline ...?

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.

Pwned.

Another ones down ...and another ones down... and another one bites the dust.

"They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That’s the Chicago way......"

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

[delacoert]

...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//

[Bahbah]

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.

[ArmyBratproud]

woohoo!!!!!

Anybody got the link to that site that has the pajama warrior pictures on it.
The ones of the guy and the girl sitting in the chairs with laptops?

I still think FR should sell a football jersey with the
# 47 on it. Just to tick RATher off.

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

ah.....I don't mind Tucker nearly as much as most of them, he is just a little milquetoast and in his cute bow tie

[freeangel]

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.

[missyme]

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

[Friend of thunder]

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.
