CNN Supporting Terrorists Again
Self | 2-1-06 | SampleMan

Posted on 02/01/2006 4:46:43 PM PST by SampleMan

Sorry for the vanity but I'm PO'ed. CNN just did a piece clearly showing a cartoon of a quadruple amputee service member, when dicussing that the JCS were furious about it.

Then within 30 seconds they went to the Mohamed cartoon from Denmark, except they blurred them out, "so as not to offend some members of the audience."

CNN is lucky I can't get my hands on them right now. I sent a nasty letter, which I'm sure won't be read.

It was in the Washington Post. It has Rumsfeld looking at the amputee saying something like, "Its not so bad, I'll just list you as Battle Hardened."

Anyone have a telephone number for CNN (I can't find one). I don't think I'm going to relax until I give them a piece.

I saw that and I'm so spittin mad I can hardly type. I just posted the exact same thing on the other thread about the cartoons.

Can you believe that crap????

Back-to-back segments.... one is blurred to not "offend certain viewers"... and the other they don't give a damn about - in fact they WANT TO OFFEND certain viewers!!!!

I'm off to send an email to WOLFIE (and here I've been recently thinking this guy wasn't totally an a--hole). ARGH...

Hopefully, the printing of this cartoon will put a real dent in their subscriptions. That's the only thing that will hurt them, they haven't got a conscience or any sense of patriotism. Their disgusting.

Why is the drawing of the soldier offensive?

Why don't you fire off an email to Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Pace and ask him why he thinks this cartoon is offensive?

I can no longer stomach CNN so I did not see it. Do you know who the host was so I can find a contact #?

Wolf Blitzer - "The Situation Room". I just sent him an email - this was the most disgusting thing I have seen in a long time.

I urge everybody that saw this to go to this link and leave Wolfie a message.
