A reality check for CNN czar Jon Klein. Straight news gone awry as CNN's chyron calls Obama's Department of Justice "Department of Jihad."
Wolf Blitzer's Friday on-air apology for Thursday's Opinion Chyron:
Salon's Glenn Greenwald has the back story.
The liberal American Prospect weighed in with this: "Whose side are they on? Whose values do they share? Happening now: Is CNN disloyal? Are they the Jihad News Network?"
Did Wolfie just sort of blame that indirectly on Liz Cheney or did I read too much into it?
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't think you read too much into it, Tim...
ReplyDeleteSo actually typed in the words Liz Cheney or some soon to be unemployed schmuck at CNN?
ReplyDeleteI knew it! I knew it just had to be the Bush's administration's fault.
ReplyDeleteWow, I knew he and his former administration (even the offsprings!) are responsible for Hurricane Katrina, 10 percent unemployment, ABC cut-backs, and generally anything that goes wrong under Obama's time in office, but I didn't know they how the power to make people say certain things and/or mess with chyrons.
