confessed? HA.....they are SPINNING!!!! How good they were to have saved the lives of their worker bees (while thousands of others died.) At least that's what I've seen others here saying...

CNN is trying to do CYA victim stories right now.

Your premise appears to be that the documentation of torture is more important than complicity in torture.

Please go away though, your tone of argument is not anything I wish to engage with.

LOL! Nice closer by Rummy!

The more this kind of, like you say, yellow journalism gets exposed, the less and less anyone will ever listen to any reports coming out of hostile areas.

On Brit's show a minute ago, Charles K.(don't know his last name) says this is also going on in Palestine as we speak! He said it is selling your soul for a story!

CNN's Nic Robertson was called out by the panel, too!

Krauthammer said same thing going on in covering PA.

Italians apologized for covering PA lynching.

Has anyone checked CNN to see IF they even reported/confessed?

I just can't bring myself to do it. Very hard on my blood pressure...

I think it goes beyond sellin their soul for a story.

CNN sells it's soul for an agenda, imo.

Thanks for the link!

Rush's take on the CNN story: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/891314/posts?page=3

Actually, I think CNN has NO SOUL to sell....they are prostitutes.

[PhiKapMom]

That was Charles Krauthammer! I just bumped you to the Rush take on CNN!

A decade late and a dollar short. This from a network that made up stuff about nerve gas in Vietnam when they had Arnett Baghdad working for them. This from a network whose correspondent in Cuba NEVER broadcasts a word critical of the Communist regime there. This from a network that defended Bill Clinton's crimes. This from a network that sees President Bush as the modern day Hitler. I could go on but really - CNN has never been about reporting "objective" news. The sooner people wake up to this reality, the better off our country will be. I hope they implode and Fox News Channel takes over 24 hour cable. It couldn't really happen to a nicer bunch of liberals.

Charles K. (don't know last name) on Brit Hume's show a minute ago said they sold their soul for the story. Well, guess what! I do not want to hear a story from any reporter that has a gun to his back! If you cannot report the truth, don't report!!

BTTT

[texasbluebell]

CNN made the classic Clintonian mistake of taking the public for stupid.

Ah, yes, cnn following in the footsteps of their masters.

[Carolinamom]

Against my better judgement, I just turned to CNN and saw Paula say, "We've just reCUVed news that Saddam Hussein may be dead." Her pronunciation is a bit slurred.....drinking to relieve the pain?

[Anomaly in Illinois]

prostitutes

:) I used the same word in post #1191
