Reprehensible. Access is more important than principle---or truth in reporting. But wait a minute----didn't CNN do the same thing during the Clinton Administration?
CNN knewThe Washington Times ^ | Monday April 14 2003 | EDITORIALWhere to begin? First, as the chief news executive of the only truly worldwide television news network, Jordan was literally the one man in the entire world in a position to "unbottle" those awful truths. Moreover, those awful truths were not only newsworthy, but would have been history-making -
had they been reported.
I think that most people are missing the real point of all of this. Sure Saddam was a sadistic madman, but at least he wasn't George Bush. It doesn't matter to these people that they were used. They were happy to be used. Their hatred of conservatives, George Bush, and America in general trumps all to this very day.
This CNN story should not be forgotten. We have to keep this alive in some way
This astonishing confession doesn't just undermine CNN's claim to be "the most trusted name in news" - it wreaks incalculable damage on all journalists' ability to be trusted by the American people.
The elistism of CNN is incredible. What else aren't they telling us?
I bet CNN has the same 'see-no-evil, hear-no-evil' "policy" with Castro's Cuba.

These stories have some big legs now, and the American people are sickened by them. Good for the American people, shame on CNN and Teddie Turnup!

I hope Saddam & his pals are compared to Pol Pot when the truth becomes known.

I never thought in my lifetime( I'm 31) that I would see the demise of CNN and the Democratic party at the same time.
This is sort of like the Soviet Union falling. I hope it happens sooner rather than later.

"Compromised News Network," "Cowardly News Network," or "Can't-Tell News Network" are all pretty good monikers.
