Everybody tune in to CNN NOW
Edited on Sun May-13-07 10:39 PM by lynyrd_skynyrd
"Month Of Mayhem"

Will be replayed at 2:00 AM. (11:00 PM Pacific)

Sometimes (usually on weekends and late at night when nobody is watching) CNN becomes a legitimate news channel. This program is showing the true horror of the Iraq war.

I am getting increasingly angry as I watch this. Keep in mind that there is one man responsible for all this.

Impeach the bastard. Now.

2. I think it's disgusting that CNN

airs this when they know no one is watching. And when people are watching, they have kyra phillips "selling" the war and blowing kisses to her chimp. If they know better, as your post suggests, that just makes their usual coverage even more despicable.

3. In fairness, this has played before and had some promo in prime time.

Yeah, it didn't play in the big slots, though.

It's a good piece of reporting.

4. Isn't Kyra Phillips on in daytime? Those of us with day jobs don't get to see her
or CNN during the day. And this is part of a CNN series that plays on weekends.

5. I'm going to try to catch this at 2am
I've noticed the late night thing at CNN for years, it isn't new. Very interesting bits of news and if you listen during the day it is no longer mentioned. It was like I thought it was part of dream but it's happened quite often. It's almost like a cover, like they can legitimately say oh yeah see we did report that what are you people who complain talking about, like the NYT putting a big story on p23 buried inside the paper intstead of up front.
