Being suspicious of them I want to check with all of you to see what you think.

1. Are You Sure That's CNN's Crossfire?

I don't see a @cnn.com or @turner.com address there and no link or page.

Must be something here we don't know.

2. this looks worth looking into...

I'm no expert.

This is either a hoax perpetrated by Crossfire. (Are you SURE you had the right address?)
Or it is a barely intelligible invitation to find a representative -somewhere-.

It's strange, I'd write back and ask for clarification, then call, then write administration or management at CNN for confirmation.

3. Do NOT write to a suspicious website.

Do check with Crossfire and CNN.

4. I forgot to mention, check out the date 2005 so it does me no good now.

I was hoping they were looking to replace little Pucker Harlson.

5. go look at the website for politicalcrossfire.com

It doesn't look like it is CNN.

6. This is not CNN's Crossfire, it's Political Crossfire

an online forum.

on edit: I've never been to the forum except to type in the URL right now. Nothing weird happened.

10. politicalcrossfire.com

Politicalcrossfire.com after a quick glace appears to be a right leaning site that hosts many forums. They don't give much information about themselves, at least not on their homepage.
