Not to be flip, but ignorance is bliss. Cruz knew exactly what level of slimy creepy sewer politics Jeff Roe is famous for. Roe was the campaign manager for Cruz’ senatorial opponent. As such, Roe spread vicious lies about Cruz, many in direct mailings. Cruz acted mortally offended at the time...but he couldn’t wait to hire the guttermeister to play his dirty tricks on Cruz’ behalf. Real Christian, that.
Re your timeline, let’s cut to the Chase. Just give me links to where CNN A, announced that Carson was “suspending his campaign,” and B, said Carson would have a “big announcement,” the following week. Those are the only two items that concern me.
Maybe, but not actually demonstrated. I'm sure a guy who is selling himself doesn't portray himself as slime, i'm pretty sure he would claim he is just effective.

My recollection is that this is covered in the timeline link I sent you. I think it goes into quite good detail as to what happened and when, and by whom.
It even mentions that CNN immediately set out to distance itself from what it's people had done, so I very much doubt CNN would maintain any online data that proves otherwise.
I think our evidence is what people contemporarily reported regarding CNN's Tweets and statements. I doubt you will get anything further from CNN itself. Certainly nothing culpatory.
