CNN will not use "terrorist" since they have not been guilty of anything by a court

Two Things

First, Brit Hume just quoted CNN spokeperson as saying that CNN will not use the word "terrorist" to refer to the terrorists who rammed two jets into the WTC and one into the Pentagon. Instead they will refer to the 'people' as "alledged hijackers". The reasoning? Because they will not pass judgement and the terrorists have not been found guilty in a court of law. I'm about to burst a blood vessel.

Second, the State of Texas ordered Keema & Seabrook to remove 26 flags flying from light poles along a bridge because they were on the State right-of-way. Keema and Seabrook didn't back down and the State relented.

The state sucks! Long live local government!

I live in Seabrook. ...20 miles south of Houston on Galveston Bay.

Both mayors told the Highway Dept. to "Shove It" & they soon 'crawfished' as quickly as possible in disgrace.

Flags are flying! ..and will continue!

Occasionally I lean to the left and I am only scummy in the years I don't bathe! CNN's decision not to call them terrorists comes from them being controlled by Arab interests. Last I heard they were trying to see if they could blame it on the Jewish lobby that supports Condit, who secretly converted last year.

There's nothing wrong with referring to the people who crashed the aircraft into the WTC as "terrorists." Fact is, whoever did it is a terrorist. Whether the specific person they may be talking about did it is another matter altogether.

Just as they got that nice Aaron Brown and were trying to compete with fox, they do this. This calls for the mother of all freeps even tho I will not be watching them. A shame it is, I liked Aaron Brown.

Thank you for posting this as a separate thread. CNN shows its true colors.

Brit doesn't shy away from using the word "terrorist," but the dopey FoxNews "War on Terror" and continued references to "terror attacks" is bizarre. It's a war on terrorists, guys.

Uh-oh, it looks like Osama is right. America, or at least CNN and their friends at Reuters, is too soft and weak.

I also heard the Utah Attorney GEneral is trying to make Northwest apologize for kicking three Iraqis off their plane. My question is - are they US citizens? If not, buh-bye. If they are, gee, life is tough during wartime. Its too bad Utah can't fire their AG.

CNN will refer to the WTC towers as still standing because their destruction has not yet been proven in a court of law.
