Reid, a former head of the Arkansas Democrat Party, and a prominent Muslim leader. Maria Luisa, the UNLV student who asked Hillary Clinton whether she preferred "diamonds or pearls" at last night's debate wrote on her MySpace page this morning that CNN forced her to ask the frilly question instead of a pre-approved query about the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository. Whats the next question CNN wants to ask Hillary?Thongs or Bikinis ? CNN is in the pocket of Democrats.No doubt . |
| newfrickinshow | Posted – 11/18/2007 2:12:05 AM | show profile Why do you think I don't watch CNN? But they're not in the pocket of Hillary Clinton or the Democrats. They're in the pocket of big-name politicians. They want to carry favor with the powerful, those with influence, those with names that can bring in ratings. Right now it's the Democrats because they seem most likely to win the White House and they give the biggest cushion to Hillary Clinton because of her front-runner status. Whereas why try to bring about the favor of some schlemiel former mayor who already lost an election to Hillary Clinton in 2000? But I truly believe that if the pendulum swung to favor Rudy, Mitt, McCain, and the Republicans, they'd suddenly be the ones receiving a heaping helping of ass-kissing. |

| Olbypocrisy | Posted – 11/18/2007 7:58:36 PM | show profile CNN's "undecided voters" were Democratic operatives http://directorblue.blogspot.com/2007/11/cnn-plants-questions-to-protect-hillary.html CNN hits bottom and digs: All six debate questioners appear to be Democratic Party operatives. So much for "ordinary people, undecided voters". To paraphrase Junior Soprano, CNN is so far up the DNC's hind end, Howard Dean can taste hair gel. In a nutshell, CNN's six "undecided voters" were: A Democratic Party bigwig An antiwar activist A Union official An Islamic leader A Harry Reid staffer A radical Chicano separatist CNN , the cable network of Democrats |

| Olbypocrisy | Posted – 11/18/2007 11:29:50 PM | show profile CNN's "undecided voters" were Democratic operatives Thats all you need to know about CNN. |
| newfrickinshow | Posted – 11/19/2007 1:12:35 AM | show profile Only because the Dems will most likely win. They want to be friendly and nice to the future president so they can get all the interviews and access in the future. If the Republicans looked like they had the better chance of winning, it would be the other way around. Even still, I don't see Wolf really grilling the GOP front runners. CNN is ran by a bunch of wimps and should be in the olympics as they are America's softball champions. |
| newfrickinshow | Posted – 11/19/2007 6:54:12 PM | show profile and btw, we're talking about undecided primary voters. We're not talking about people deciding to vote democrat or republican, but which democrat they're going to vote for. |
| chucho | Posted – 11/20/2007 10:09:05 AM | show profile Somebody who thinks Fox News has no bias and is completely "fair & balanced" probably isn't the best person to judge CNN. I don't like getting my information from television in general, but to call CNN Democrat on one hand and FNS unbiased on the other is not only preposterous, but probably disingenuous. I believe most conservatives know FNS has a right-wing bias but consider it a fair response to CNN, which they consider to have a liberal bias. It behooves conservatives to admit this, or they can continue to have this know-it-all with-me-or-against me attitude and falsely declare FNS the most unbiased news source in the world (which even they don't beleive). |
