I was just totally shocked to see that CNN has this on their web site:
http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/10/acorn.prostitution/index.html
The article, even though it quotes the Acorn pukes, is on CNN. What a surprise; I never thought I would see anyone but FOX covering this story.

From the CNN article, Levinson, an ACORN spokeman:

“This film crew tried to pull this sham at other offices and failed. ACORN wants to see the full video before commenting further,” Levenson said.

Whoops!!

The Commie National News, is only trying to save it's failing ratings.

Yeah, CNN has it now. But they blur out the ACORN workers, and say they are “allegedly giving advice” to the “prostitute and pimp.”

Also, note the description of the film makers. They are described as conservative activist filmmakers.

And they are saying “there are problems with the video.” Watch the video from CNN. It’s very interesting how they portray it. They go to every possible length to attack the video and the people who made it, and give every benefit of the doubt to ACORN. They also point out that Maryland is a “two party consent” state, so this video probably won’t be admissible as evidence in a Maryland court.

I do wish that Hannah Giles could have made it to CNN for an interview. I wonder why she backed out?

Also, I caught the “spent my life savings” comment from Hannah on Beck yesterday. I hope she had enough savings for a month of travel. For now, I think it's safe to assume these two filmed as many offices as they could over a month or more, given that the one released today was from late July. And since Levensen said that he knew they tried this stunt at other offices, we can infer that at least some offices reported this up the chain. They might have filmed until some internal memo went out warning ACORN offices not to help the "prostitute and pimp" who were going around to all the offices.

I’d be real interested if Giles and O’Keefe could give an answer as to what percentage of the ACORN offices were helpful, and what percentage told them that they couldn’t be involved with illegal activities. This isn’t a single isolated incident. And even if ACORN offices are on average only 15% likely to help criminals with their crimes, that's a huge problem. The entire organization needs to be shut down. But knowing the total level of corruption in their system would be good information to have.

They "ALLEGEDLY" have it on their site.
