"I was watching CNN last night as their Brett Sadler interviewed some Iraqi conscripts walking tens of miles from their positions in the front toward their Shi'ite homes in the south.

He tried to get them to say they were unhappy about the American-led liberation. He said: "You're an Iraqi soldier and who does it feel to know that American soldiers are now controlling your country?" They said: "We're proud of the Americans and happy." Hee hee. He seemed disappointed."

Incidents like this one are why I told coteblanche on another thread that it's almost like CNN is covering a different war than the one covered by Fox and MSNBC. What they've done is indefensible. Like others here have stated so well, this "admission" is just CYA. They've collaberated with the enemy, with evil, and now they want to justify it. I'm not buying it.

I'm not buying it, either.
They outed themselves only because they wanted to get out in front of the story.
They have lost any semblance of the moral authority, objectivity, and integrity
that it takes to be a world-class news organization.
