Call-out CNN on Support for Flip-Flop Slander against Kerry.

[Sensitivity]

Candy Crowley on CNN continues the flip-flop slander against John with an nasty comment towards the end of an otherwise decent CNN Presents piece. It was like they had to throw the repubs a bone
in a effort to be Fair and Ballanced.

She said Kerry supported going to war with his IWR vote because that was popular, but started to oppose the war when it became unpopular.

We have to call CNN on this because it is false and serves to validate the republican’s vicious line of attack.

Kerry supported the Resolution with explicit reservations before the Vote, and warned the President against going to war except as a last resort after the vote. For many in congress the IWR vote brought Bush back from the brink of war into a U.N. process. John’s Kerry’s position was no different than that of the French, German, Syrian …. Ambassadors who voted for resolution 1441, but opposed Bush’s rush to war. Kerry has not modified his position during the campaign to pander for votes. John has been consistent.

Here's what I sent:

Funny, I thought the Democratic Convention was this week. Watching your coverage, I wouldn't have known this. All I see are the usual GOP suspects, bashing the Democratic Party. And some of your hosts have the gall to question whether there will be Bush bashing at the convention?

Does your network plan to bash George Bush and give lots of facetime to Democrats during their convention?

What ever happened to unbiased reporting? What ever happened to integrity in journalism? Where is your integrity? Since when did CNN become FOX News?
