CNN Speaks!
John at AMERICAblog was watching CNN earlier this evening and saw them speak to whether Christiane Amanpour or other CNN journalists have been wiretapped. He wasn’t satisfied with their explanation.
One Response to “CNN Speaks!”
Okay, this whole thing is weirding me out.
First, we have a scandal that began when unnamed sources claimed that Bush was illegally wiretapping unnamed Americans at unnamed times.
Bush’s defense to this was, “I do, in fact, wiretap unnamed Americans at unnamed times but it’s legal and, besides, they were talking to unnamed terrorists.”
So, now we have a website that publishes transcript that includes a question and then said website edits the transcript and deletes the question. A scandal started by a story that has no source at all!
And Bush’s defense to this is “I have not had wire tapping relations with that journalist!”
I’m waiting for the next episode, where it turns out that the reporter Bush was eavesdropping on was actually Greenspan’s wife – he was trying to get an inside tip on short term interest rates so he could do some insider trading.
Seriously, can this whole story get any more bizarre?
