47. Done, Here's my comment:
In his interview with Harry Belafonte, Wolf Blitzer delivered a biased atack, urging Belafonte to "Back Down" and declaring that he has "gone too far." Blitzer stopped just short of calling Belafonte a thought criminal. I want to know what gives CNN the right to decide when somone has "gone too far?" It appears that CNN is now towing the Bush party line, and since you can not beat fox, you have decided to join them. Whatever happened to the days when CNN was fair and balanced? What happened to the days when CNN did not tell people how to think? Blitzer resorted to using pathetic bait-and-switch tactics by suggesting that Belafonte said that the Jews were responsible for their fate in world war two. Blitzers comments cannot be described as journalism, but rather a pathetic attemp to attack a person who is standing up for what they believe in. Belafonte's truth backed Blitzer into a corner, and Blitzer crawled out of it like a rat.
