I v-chipped CNN (thank you, Algore) so you will have to be my eyes and ears. Is Anderson Cooper referring to the protestors as “tea-baggers”?

CNN's christianne amanpour read her analysis of the speech right after it was live on CNN. She didn't discuss the last half the way it was delivered.

1. Reference to 'that Clinton woman's husband, the branch davidians and 80 people burned alive in a house in Texas

2. It doesn't matter which government runs the US - they are all the same pro zionist dogs.

3. Foreign devils are responsible for all street riots and the Iranians are too good to let this influence them.

4. One could sum up the ayatollah's remarks with the sentence: " Iam your leader, it doesn't matter who is president since, I am the leader....

The coverage of what was said as announced by the translator (4 am CST) and what CNN claims was said are 180 degrees apart.

They are making up for their slow start, I give them that.
But they keep reporting “hundreds maybe thousands” of protesters. WTF?
Does this look like hundreds?

Actually- I tried watching CNN- managed until Christianne Amanpour came on and I gave up. Her entire approach is pro mullah.

Meanwhile- over on FOX they’re covering live too and doing very well.

So are they going to get rid of all the mullahs?

I agree that their coverage is good, but remember, a few days ago CNN was getting worldwide condemnation for its LACK of coverage of the protests immediately after the election.

They are just over-compensating so they do not lose their global viewership.

Your post is a lie. At the time of CNN’s coverage Twitter was going crazy that they were showing footage of State run Iranian t.v. with unconfirmed reports.

For a while this morning, they were the only ones even appearing to try to do some serious coverage of Iran, so I give them credit for that.

Then Amanpour came on, and Fox seems to have stepped up on this.

What? When I was 10 years old, I found 5 years to be a very very long time. It was half my life. How old are you?

Almost anything newsworthy by CNN which concerns politics is to be viewed with some reservations. Of course if there is a natural disaster or say, a plane crash, then the televised news brings on factual coverage. Often first class journalism is evident. There can hardly be any spin on the actual event. Now the MSM might spin the event against a President in the past. Say George W. Bush and the New Orleans flood.

I can be rightfully accused of a jaundiced outlook here. This is what could be happening. In some way the CNN could be hoping for a debacle and then credit President Obama with his words for the change in Iran belligerence. Change in a chastened regime. Sort of evoking President Reagan's "Tear down these walls" speech.

Somehow I think that CNN has an absolute agenda at all times- we shall see.

Well I just switched over to check CNN and they were in full CYA mode for Obama on his Iran stance or lack thereof.

My opinion is that they are hedging their bets.

In case the revolutionaries prevail, they will say that “See, the Obama new tone is already sowing the seeds of democracy, even without us meddling”

These people are devious enough to think that far...

Their coverage got better after they were slammed on Twitter.

Yet in all other ways they are traitors.... no thanks.

I think it would be like telling a cheating wife that she looks nice... right before she goes out to meet with her lover.

Other than occasionally looking in to see what Dobbs is ranting about, I wouldn’t watch CNN if it was the last outlet in the world. I remember their traitor antics during Desert Storm and when it comes to turning against our country, I never forget...... or forgive.

I think it is dangerous to think of what is going on in Iran in western terms such as “Freedom” and “democracy.” The most likely result here is that the uprising is brutally crushed. If it succeeds, it’s not clear to me that anything recognizable as freedom or democracy will be the result. The best we get is, I suspect, a slightly less odious regime.
