From DU: This is FASCISM.

It's always "fascism" with the DUmmies. They blame the weather on fascism.

Howell Raines. Good catch....another biggie.

I hereby give permission for Hugh Hewitt to gloat his ass off. I would love to be a fly on the wall when Mathews hears this news: ""Blog? What's a blog? and who the hell is this Hewitt guy anyway?

Yup, that was all anyone needed to know what a RAT this Eason Jordan character is.... he admitted in the NY Times that his precious CNN effectively served as a propaganda service for Saddam's hideous regime, reporting only what Saddam allowed and putting the regime in the best possible light.... the decent thing to do, years ago, would have been for CNN to pull their people out of Iraq and explain to the world that it was impossible to do honest news reporting there because of the constant threat of death and torture to any journalists who actually reported honestly. Instead, Jordan's CNN served as propagandist for Saddam, by Jordan's own admission. He should have been toast long ago, but better late than never.....
