Did CNN broadcast Pentagon/Rumsfeld briefing on TV yesterday?
If not, I would like to know why it was that Jamie McIntyre, CNN's Pentagon correspondent, who ASKED Rumsfeld the pointed questions regarding the altered Pentagon "take it to the bank" memo, decided to wait until 9:00 p.m. TODAY to post the story?

http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/04/21/rumsfeld.woodward/

Why was the Washington Post, the first to publish anything regarding the story?

CNN had a major scoop - why did they choose to ignore it?

Help me out here....

1. I think they did
I remember turning on CNN yesterday, seeing Rumsfeld, the 'LIVE' bug and thinking, "I don't want to deal with this shit right now." Seriously. Hope that helps.

2. CNN is pure GOP TV like the rest of the cable GOP whores of greed.
A vote for Bush is a vote for Bandar.
