Bill Bennett rips CNN for turning Palin’s daughter into a political football

We got a bunch of excited e-mails about this leading me to think it was some sort of O’Reilly/Geraldo nuclear exchange. It’s okay — perfectly righteous about not turning Bristol Palin into some sort of springboard for a venal talking-head debate on abstinence education, but cordial and low key. The real outrage, as you’ll see, is CNN bringing up the pregnancy rumors about Palin herself as an intro to the Bristol piece. Here’s how easy it would have been for them to check that before going on air with it. Stay classy, CNN.
That clip and the Bennett clip are linked to the first image below; beneath that you’ll find a link to video of Bill Kristol getting exercised at Mort Kondracke along the same lines. Click both to watch. Exit question: Per BB’s logic, how is Palin supposed to be questioned about abstinence-only now given how close the issue hits to home? Any attempt to do so will call to mind her daughter and end up treating her like a political football, even if she isn’t specifically mentioned.

CNN used to be the Clinton News Network...at the time Kommander Korruption was committing treason by arranging the sale of US missile and nuclear weapons technology...all for illegal Communist Chinese campaign contributions.

These days, those who know anything about CNN refer to them as The Communist News Network.

So, it's no surprise that their minions who worship at the feet of the Messiah O'Bomber would go out of their way to attack even the children of Republican candidates.

It's also no surprise these far left radicals at the Communist News Network are not in the least interested in exploring the connections the Messiah, The One has to communist groups, including a high ranking member of the Communist Party USA on his campaign staff, his connections with the Communist domestic terrorist bomber Bill Ayers, his connection with Frank Marshal Davis, member of the the Communist Party USA until his death, the gang of communist groups and socialist groups supporting the Messiah or anything at all which casts the least doubt on the fitness of THE ONE to serve as President of the United States.

Let me also point out that this broadcast network is also the network which concealed information about Saddam Hussein and the head of their news department finally had to admit it and resign. Rather than informing their viewers about the barbarity of Saddam Hussein and his insane sons, they concealed, covered it up and didn't report it. His name is Eason Jordan and this is the story..or part of the story of the CNN cover up of Saddam Hussein.

Anything coming out of CNN should be considered highly suspect. Their motives should be carefully examined or better yet, just don't tune them in at all. My personal preference is to simply not invite their bullshiit into my home at all.

Daily Telegraph (London)
"CNN's secret news agenda with Saddam regime," by Tom Leonard
April 18, 2003

Journalists love to complain about the stories that never get used but Eason Jordan, the chief news executive of CNN, may now be regretting that he ever revealed some of the contents of his network's spike. In an opinion piece for the New York Times last Friday, Jordan admitted that over the past 12 years CNN had buried a series of deeply damaging stories about the brutality of Saddam Hussein's regime....

Had he anticipated the barrage of abuse in the American media that has greeted his mea culpa perhaps he might have kept them bottled up a bit longer. Rival journalists were dumbfounded as to why he had said anything at all, while academics and commentators accused Jordan of compromising CNN's journalistic mission simply so the network could continue to report from Iraq. "If accurate reporting from Iraq was impossible, why was access to this dictatorship so important in the first place?" asked Rich Noyes of the conservative Media Research Center. Another critic speculated that he must have had a cosy relationship with Uday if he was willing to tell him of his assassination plans. Others wanted to know whether any other unpleasant regimes were getting the same kid gloves treatment. Some however have praised Jordan's "courage" and "honesty".
