CNN Pro-Obama and Pro-Wright All the Time
American Thinker ^ | March 19, 2008 | Peter Barry Chowka

CNN fully lived up to its reputation as left of center Tuesday, on a day when Sen. Barack Obama was desperately trying to put the Rev. Jeremiah Wright scandal behind him. In particular, the cable news channel's three programs in prime time seemed to have their guests selected and their scripts written by Sen. Obama's campaign. Fortunately, CNN puts transcripts of its shows online, so interested parties who missed the broadcasts live can still study these endless case histories in liberal bias...

CNN is run by socialists so this is not a shock.

CNN is part of Obama’s Half-Vast Wright-Wing Conspiracy

DR. GAIL ANDERSON HOLNESS, GREATER WASHINGTON COUNCIL OF CHURCHES: He [Wright] is not preaching hate theology. And that should be a clear statement. It's not hate theology. It is a liberation theology. When Jesus was around, they didn't respect Jesus. They were angry with him. When he spoke the beatitudes on the mountain. They were angry with Martin Luther King when he was around, and they didn't respect him. And now he's a great hero. . .

Rev Wright is now Jesus.

Father, forgive them for they not what they do.

Ironically, in my judgment, the last person who could give a speech about race that was this good was Bill Clinton, who -- you know, who also understood it well and had an enormous insights into these issues. . .

What's truly ironic is that the eight years of Bill Clinton did not do one single solitary thing to lessen the achievement gap between blacks and whites, any more than the previous 30 years of the liberal-led "War on Poverty" did. As always, with libs--intentions are far more important than accomplishments.

Is it time for another discussion of what the Breaking News sidebar is for?

“CNN Pro-Obama and Pro-Wright All the Time”

So are about 20% of Free Republic members! It disgusts me.

No, they only Crucified Him. This is as insane as the Al Sharpton comment that the Holy Family was homeless.

My high-school son told me that the local cable company installed two TV’s in the school, which is tuned to CNN all day, for the kids viewing pleasure. Apparently, it was part of a cable contract negotiated by the town. Wonderful, eh?

... also, during the big speech yesterday they had as anchorpersons Fredricka Whitfield and Don Lemon — two African-Americans.

Subliminal message there?! Hmmmm.........

Just CNN? I’m also wondering why Fox News didn’t broadcast one of Bush’s speeches yesterday. I saw it on CNN, but when I flipped over to Fox, they were in commercials. Geez can’t watch any newschannels anymore.

CNN to the American People: “Are you going to believe your own eyes and ears or what we tell you?”

If Obama’s paid staff was as passionate an advocate for him as CNN’s Roland Martin, then Obama would have sewed up the nomination by now. Hillary obviously has her advocates in the media, but NO ONE has taken up for Obama and Wright with the fierceness of Martin. Martin’s partisanship is wearing out Lou Dobbs. Dobbs has taken as strong a position against Wright as anyone on CNN can dare take. His poll question last night was a definite slam to the Obama-Wright crowd. It asked would you continue to attend a church where the pastor cursed this nation. A question he knew was red meat for his audience or most audiences save maybe the MoveOn.org viewers owned by Olberdorque and Chwissy Mathews.
