A little FULL of yourself, CNN? "A new administration takes over and CNN is keeping them honest."
It's on the home page (http://www.cnn.com/), on the right, under "CNN TV"...



"Obama's first 100 days

A new administration takes over and CNN is keeping them honest. The best political team on TV asks the tough questions -- only on CNN."

1. I. Hate. The. Media.
Bush gets a 6 year honey moon and Obama gets a 2 week vacation. Fuck them. I support any Doctrine that will result in their destruction.

5. They are so full of shit....
they helped perpetuate lie after lie with the previous administration and now they want to keep the new administration honest? Great record you have CNN. Good questions you're asking like whether or not the President is still smoking. Fuck off CNN.

9. I guess they didn't care to keep Shrub honest. We all see how
THAT tuned out.

It's why we're in the mess now. How honest did you keep the GOP?

Pathetic.

12. That's like Campbell Brown's "No Bias, No Bull"
please .... EVERYONE is biased and TV by it's very nature is full of BS (it's that BS that keeps us entertained.)

How about a new title "Pretentious and Disingenuous"

17. Yeah, just like this am,
when John King let SC Gov. Mark Sanford(R) spew his conservative view againist bailouts/stimulus bill. When Sandford said that it would be "painful", did King keep him "honest" by asking him if it would be "painful" for him and all the other multi-millionaires and billionairs. Hell, no! Did King ask him if, as a Christian, he would be willing to "walk the walk" and sell everything he had and give it to the poor, as the Bible instructs? Hell no! So much for "keeping them honest". What a crock!

19. I STILL FIND IT AMAZING THAT THE MEDIA ...
always finds their voice at the start of Democratic Party Administrations. I can see their brain working:
1993: "Hey, we really were asleep at the wheel for the last few years, although all that war coverage sure was fun. Maybe we should start keeping our representatives honest again? Break out the really tough questions..."
2009: "Hey, we really were asleep at the wheel for the last few years, although all that war coverage sure was fun. Maybe we should start keeping our representatives honest again? Break out the really tough questions..."

20. Too bad SeeNothingNews didn't try a little harder to keep the last administration honest.
Of course it's kinda hard to when you get kickbacks from them to disseminate your propoganda.

Fuck you, CNN.
