Christiane Amanpour rocks.
She's on CNN taking apart the Israeli spokesperson's talking points, and demanding real answers.

3. CNN is letting her back on US CNN?
I guess I'll have to watch. Is it a show or just a report she's doing?

5. CNN News Goddess...
I deeply respect her and want her out more, and more like her. We need more real journalists.





I also kinda have a crush on her...I'm sorry...she's hot. I'd listen to her read the phonebook.

soft ball questions. I was actually impressed.

One of the CNN anchors actually said they have heard the Israeli side and then played a clip of Mustafa Barghouti pointing out that fact.

There have been protests in St Louis MO on behalf of those in Gaza every night since 12/28. I wonder if the protests in the US have shown CNN that there are other points of view out here, in both the Arab and Jewish communities.
