I trust them to be on the side of the Dems.
With CNN it has always been just being there. The truth of the matter or the veracity of those providing the information is even less than secondary.
CNN lives in a world where they drink from a river called denial.

Reuters Admits Photo Fakery!

Reuters admits altering Beirut photo --- Reuters withdraws photograph of Beirut after Air Force attack after US blogs, photographers point out 'blatant evidence of manipulation.' Reuters' head of PR says in response, 'Reuters has suspended photographer until investigations are completed into changes made to photograph.' Photographer who sent altered image is same Reuters photographer behind many of images from Qana, which have also been subject of suspicions for being staged ~ http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3286966,00.html

AP should sue Reuters for plagerism as it appears the Reuters took their photo, photo shopped it and then put out their altered reality as their photo. ~ 311

'Which begs the question, BEFORE the internet, just how much did they show and tell us that wasn't true?'
Do you remember that old show, "The Outer Limits"? The MSM controlled all that you saw or heard. Walter Cronkite visited VietNam around the time of the '68 Tet offensive, one of the most decisive victories for the American and So V'Namese military. Cronkite went on TV and told the American people that Nam was "unwinnable" and he and the rest of the American press turned this victory into a loss. Think that could happen today? ~ 77

"They may have brought down public opinion some but fully 35% of the public is aware of their treachery. They can try all they want but they can't succeed unless the internet starts getting regulated."
I don't take much solace in this. The "35%" is essentially the same number who are solid conservatives. This is nothing more than the traditional political split in this country. That being approximately 1/3 Conservative, 1/3 DemocRAT, and 1/3 swing voters with their heads up their A$$. Things have changed with the Internet, but not really. Those who don't want to believe will not despite the facts being beamed at them at the speed of light. ~ 251

Reuters Doctoring Photos from Beirut? [photo inside]

OK, now things are getting weird. This Reuters photograph shows blatant evidence of manipulation. Notice the repeating patterns in the smoke; this is almost certainly caused by using the Photoshop “clone” tool to add more smoke to the image. (Hat tip: Mike.)
It’s so incredibly obvious, it reminds me of the faked CBS memos. http://www.freerepublic.com/images/freepathon/fr_britt-vi.jpg
Smoke simply does not contain repeating symmetrical patterns like this, and you can see the repetition in both plumes of smoke. There’s really no question about it.

More doctored photos from Hajj/Reuters? Jawa Report ^ | 8/6/2006
August 06, 2006 Reuters Doctoring Beirut Photos (Updated) Scroll down for updates. The photo below is attributed to Adnan Hajj, of the Reuters news agency. The photo alleges to show smoke covering the Beirut sky. The problem with the photo is that it is that it has been doctored to make it appear that an Israeli missile strike did much more damage than it actually did. Adnan Hajj also took the photos of dead children at Qana. Allegations have arisen that the Qana photos were part of a staged event put on by Hezbollah operatives. There is no doubt... ~ 208 http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1678623/posts?page=208#208

Hewey the closet RINO wants people to believe he never watches CNN. Its his favorite cable outlet. LOL
I trust CNN. I trust them to be faithfully biased, irresponsible, and incredibly dishonest. CNN is banned from our television.
