CNN will give report on protests after the commercial break.
They will give both sides of the debate. Of course, they would, they must afterall be fair and balanced.

4. Of course, CNN anchorwoman Alina Cho, characterized the
pro-war "group" as the ones who are supporting the troops. No mention of troops support from the thousands of anti-war protestors. And no numbers given. Crazed sound bite from the pro-war group. No comments from anti-war speakers.

A perfectly propogandized right-wing version of today's massive protests in DC.

Email CNN, thank 'em for FINALLY covering the protests, and encourage them to do better reporting next time. Can't hurt to try.

:yawn:

This is more or less what it's been for as long as I remember, so much so that, other than 9/11 and Katrina, I have probably watched less than 100 hours of FOXCNNNBCABCCBSMSNBC.

Although, if I keep occasionally catching K.O.'s show, I will break that #.
