I thought it was a black X, not a white X?
Seems it was both. The black X showed up several times. That leads to the conclusion that it was more than just an error/malfunction.

The question is why didn't this "mistake" happen before or after Cheney's speech?
To: i_dont_chat
Maybe the last word is "play", not black.

So I guess this is the perfect opportunity to watch a cover-up in real time.

Before fiddling with the image in Photoshop I was sure it was probably an honest mistake by a media which has been caught DIShonestly altering images before.
Explain why there is text belkow the "X" which looks suspiciously like news crawler text. In fact the text below the "X" on the screen capture says "...the {poa....can't make that out] has proposed restrictions on his best selling as...]"
Convince me some wit didn't use the same equipment for the news crawler to make that "X".

At one time CNN was the only 24 hour news station. In cable land, they were king news, the only news so they were able to have their way with the american people. Their coffers were full and their owner and founder was king of his kingdom. Times change and competition is good no?

"Technical malfunction"?Suuure.I recall another incident(prior to GW's re-election?)where the caption under a pic of the pres said"It's the economy,again"or something to that effect.This was also attributed to as a prank.

The director and producer have the monitors right in front of them. It shouldn't have taken them that long to notice something wasn't right.

You can view the video. It is linked from Drudge's page.

"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.Restating: "We are taking it seriously but we're convinced it was an accident. In other words we aren't taking it seriously."

I don't care if your Democrat or Republican....but it is a disgrace to the position of Vice President.....very sad...the Democrats hatred is getting very scary
To: rabair
Technical malfunction, my ass. This was a deliberate act of an operator to place that image on the screen.
The net result is the further loss of creditibility of the network!
This is proof of media bias at work!
