CNN SENIOR MANAGEMENT LAUNCHES INVESTIGATION OF CHENEY 'X'; CONTROL ROOM STAFFER 'LAUGHED' WHEN X FLASHED
CNN management has launched an internal investigation into how a giant black 'X' mark appeared over Vice President Dick Cheney's face -- as he delivered a speech from Washington on Monday!
"We are taking this matter very, very seriously, and I can assure you no one at this network would ever deliberately place an 'X' over the vice president's face," a top CNN source, who asked not to be named at this time, said from New York.
A well-placed CNN insider claims a control room staffer "laughed" when the image appeared shortly after 11 am.
A careful review of the tape now shows a white colored 'X' was also transposed over Cheney's face during the speech, it appeared for less than 1/15 of a second, creating a startling flash effect.
CNN spokeswoman Laurie Goldberg emails: "We concluded this was a technological malfunction not an issue of operator error. A portion of the switcher experienced a momentary glitch. We obviously regret that it happened and are working on the equipment to ensure it is not repeated."

Ah, too much caffeine this morning. Sorry.
My first thought was, "Amazing, the Dems are gonna give us a tax break?"
After reading the fine print I discovered that a republican suggested the tax break and Gov. Brian Swizzler-D was actually opposed to the it.
Talk about manipulating the truth.
You don't fix an error in 1/15th of a second.
Good theory.
yeah, that's the kind of crap that is really annoying
You should.
And there is another matter that you should take even more seriously: a generalized "Leftist" bias and distortion that transforms news reporting into "Leftist," anti-American, Marxist propaganda and dangerously misleads the people of the U.S.A. and of other nations.
Excellent pajama work. Did you do that?

Bulls**t
This had to be the work of one of the anarchist working at CNN, and there's no way the network will ever admit that anyone did it on purpose, because CNN probably secretly loves it.
Are you kidding me? That tells me they think they have a problem in the control room.
Yep. Someone made an effort to do this.

Could this be the beginning of a new rating system at cNNNNNN for the brains full of mush who watch...
Some think it was intentional and malicious or they have incompetents working at CNN.
I think both assumptions apply.
