CNN didn't air part of Dole's interview about Kerry


In case you've been living in a cave for the last few months to years, and don't know the truth about CNN...

1. outrageous!!!
grrr.

Well, maybe the fact that MSNBC just passed them in the ratings will clue them into the fact that we already have one Fox News and there isn't room for a second.

3. Do you think that MSNBC passing them in the ratings
is due to thelead ins they are getting from their Olympic coverage?

7. Hadn't thought about that, I suppose its possible.
But their response to the Swift Vets issue has to also be playing a role. There is a very visible change in the tone at msnbc, and it seems to be making a difference.

Although the remark was made off-air, it wasn't made off-camera. A CNN employee who asked not to be named made a digital file of the raw camera feed from the Late Edition studio. The footage does not include the graphics or other video, such as the McCain ad, that was shown during the live broadcast. "Once the control room punches the ad, it automatically kills the mics in the studio," the CNN employee told me. "He knows he can speak to Wolf and no one will hear him." Slate has posted the video, so you can see Dole's remark for yourself.

Maybe CNN has some DU spies?

:P
