contributors and they own CNN.
This is from the Clark 04 Blog. I might be wrong on this.
Can someone smarter than me give clarification on what this
means.
"In response to a GREAT message from Boo-Boo on today's Blog:
"I think that CNN interview does show that they have an agenda. One that involves putting their nose as far up Karl Rove's... Well, you get the rather disgusting picture.
All the major news outlets have reporters assigned to the Clark campaign. They know what it's been like the past few days. They know about the large crowds turning out to see the General, and they know about the ARG numbers as well. Yet, the spin they were dealing this morning was clearly meant to imply that Clark was not catching on in NH. They spun the ARG poll to mean that Clark was way behind, and totally ignored the trend, which is a major feature of a tracking poll like the ARG.
Hard for me to believe that's not deliberate."
It IS deliberate. I have to agree. CNN is biased, and here is ANOTHER reason (other than "putting their nose as far up Karl Rove's...", that is...) Consider this:
AOL/TIME-Warner is the parent company of CNN. Look at who is the #1 Contributor to HOWARD DEAN's Campaign:

I don't see MSNBC (or it's parent company, GE) on that list, and I would probably faint if I found Rupert Murdock (FOXNews's "parent") on there anywhere."
