"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.

"LOL CNN posted it under...ENTERTAINMENT"
Great news wherever they put it, but your right, if this was anything about W, GOP, Iraq, etc. it would have at least 3 links on the front page.
On a side note: Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but does anyone think Jordan committed a crime since we are at war?
What the hell is the DAVOS crap anyway? In one of the tabloids I saw pictures of Richard Gere and Angelina Jolie there. What the hell kind of legit conference is this?
That's perfect!
We need Registered to mock up a guy/gal in
cammo PJ's typing at a computer in front
of a trophy head wall!
As for the weapon, how bout a box of "Spitballs"
sitting on the desk?
LOL!
LOL!!!!!
Eason Jordan vs. Truth
Oh my, I had some great thought to post,...and then I saw this.
Next, the odious David Gergen who rushed to the defense.
Oh, my thought came back, H & C have on a piece with guests discussing a transexual (Male before female now ) playing with the woman in a Golf Tournament.
It's certainly been a rollercoaster ride these last few days.
Wow! This thread is HUGH!
Went out to dinner grudgingly (and that's not like me) and came back 550 posts later.
Catching up and celebrating tonight!
>>Something about Olberman that makes my hair stand up. I bet he spends his off hours at home dressed as a woman.<<
lol..I get the same feeling.
I say it is time for us to find out.
WATCH OUT KEITH YOUR NEXT!
MUAHAAAAAAAA
The conference was produced and hosted by Charlie Rose of late, late night talk show fame, so what does that tell you of it's legitimacy regarding world events?--
Someone told me in an earlier post that some of the forums, like the one with Clinton, but some were "off the record"--I am just curious, why would any of them be "secret"?
I know what you mean--
Friday nights are ususally pretty slow FReeper nights, but between this thread and the thread of the attack on JR, it is hoppin'!
She's being duped and is too stupid to know, or care.
Good grief, they're still telling themselves that Gannon was "paid off" and are nursing hopes (well, they state it as fact) that he's going to lead to "bigger fish".
Oh my! My aching sides.
LOL
He actually has several positions at CNN through his job, did he resigned all the way or just from 'the editorial board' or whatever?
Yeah but a 5th of whiskey and a computer make strange bed fellows on the weekends.
