CNN believes in Freedom of Speech for everyone.... except CNN employees... and Talk Radio hosts and listeners, of course.

Does this mean no more cheering at The Obama’s speeches?

Actually, the restrictions are well within the bounds of an employer - employee contract.

Is this the same CNN that broke away from a “discussion” of whether the press was favoring Obama to report that his plane had landed safely from his vacation to Europe?

They are about to start shutting down access to blogs from military and government installations too.
That means we can’t even READ them, let alone post on them.
How nice.

None of it speaks to posting/publishing anonymously or under a pseudonym.

Good grief. CNN is still trying to hide its agenda to get Democrats elected no matter what it takes? Is that outfit really so stupid as to believe that banning its employees from commenting and posting on various blogs and news forums will fool people? That fading network is even more pathetic than I thought.
To: MindBender26
If you identify yourself, or could in any way be identified, then you should not comment on anything CNN reports on. So then you can still comment on the following topics not reported on by CNN:
Success of the surge and victory in Iraq
John Edwards' love child
Democratic corruption in general
...
Imagine CNN's reaction if President Bush issued a similar executive order telling what all federal employees could say in public.

If that edict is also applicable to the CNN program hosts and reporters, does that mean that CNN will stop broadcasting?

Darn, now we’ll never find out what the biased, liberal, globalists at CNN really think.

And of course private communication with friends or family about issues that arent in the news is finePhew, glad they got that cleared up. Calling the supervisor for permission to talk to Grandma would get tedious for everyone.

The Supreme Court ruled that campaign donations is the equivalent of speech. Does this mean that CNN employees are forbidden to donate to political campaigns, too?
