I'd rather find out who runs the site "Daily Pundit". Is it a Freeper?

And I assume the story is a hoax. There is absolutely no reason to think it's true anyway.

I just can't believe it! They said it was an accident, how can I ever trust them again?

"Don't let the sign intimidate you--change the stinking channel."

Good advice. What're they gonna do if you change it?
Send you to Vietnam?

"fired and promoted to video editor; yeah right."

Wait a minute, folks. Did they fire the switchboard operator who answers calls, or the switchboard operator who operates the switcher?

I read it they fired the "Hello, CNN" operator.

I'm going to see how many FReepers who defended ABC, Target, and Wal-Mart over such incidents defend CNN here.

Maybe md4bush knows if this is a scam...

He's been awfully quiet lately, though.

I believe from the reports I've read (two of which are on news.google.com right now), that Team Hollywood originated the call.

DailyPundit just appears to be hosting the wav from the call recorded by Team Hollywood as a followup to numerous reports that this was how callers were being treated.

Unlikely that one staffer would be the only one answering phones this way if that was the case. How many times did they have to call to get a barking moonbat on tape?

Of course we don't know if they fired anybody. It's that they ADMITTED the tape is legit!!!

He is clearly a victim of the blacklist. Expect George Cluny (the rat) Jr. to make a movie about it in 40 years.

Let's put a quote from the guy on the phone on a bumper sticker - "CNN if you don't like it don't watch it."

It would not surprise me one bit to find out one day that your theory was supported by fact.

WTF is a "mond?"

I've read your posts. Smells like "Troll-Spirit."
