Why is CNN completely ignoring the McCain story?

[senseandsensibility]

I haven't seen any coverage of it at all since before five o'clock, Pacific Time, and they don't have a graphic up. It's weird compared to the wall to wall coverage on MSNBC.

[Fredda Weinberg]

1. It ain't much of a story. n/t

[Renew Deal]

2. They don't know how to go on the fly.

MSNBC does.

[PresidentObama]

3. Because it's CNN?!? n/t

[thevoiceofreason]

4. Because it doesn't help Hillary and Penn hasn't given the OK

[Metric System]

15. Has the Kool-Aid seeped into your brain? n/t

[Rockholm]

19. Give it a fucking rest.

Finally, a story that can UNITE Democrats and we get to deal with this shit?

5. They're not

I saw Lou dobbs talking about i for several minutes 10-15 minutes ago, before I turned the TV off and came back to the computer.

[senseandsensibility]

11. I didn't see that.

In fact, I've been switching back and forth to CNN since before five o'clcck. I could have missed it, but it would have been impossible to miss on MSNBC. They have the banner up even if they're talking about something else.

6. Because it is sleazy and unsubstantiated?

If there is not a WHOLE LOT more of this, then it is trashy journalism.

[high density]

12. Tell me, when that has stopped CNN from reporting something?

This is a network that employs Rick Sanchez!

[Jackpine Radical]

7. How the hell should I know?

I'm ignoring CNN.

8. cause Larry King hasn't booked the woman and the panel discussion yet

[NJSecularist]

9. CNN covered it on Lou Dobbs

Fox hasn't, though.

[Catherine Vincent]

10. Probably because this was eight years ago.

Old news.

14. Doesn't matter ~ they are digging up anything they can find

from Kindergarten on Democrats.


Did he or didn't he have sex with that blond with the short hair?

I've tried to get a visual of an affair but it just won't work.

13. If McCain made nasty, holier than thou comments

about Bill Clinton and Lewinsky then his hypocrisy is a story - otherwise I don't care who he sleeps with.

[Catherine Vincent]

16. That is true.

I didn't think about that.

[MonkeyFunk]

17. Lou Dobbs

had a big discussion on it, and that was probably enough. There really isn't a whole of "there" there yet.

I think MSNBC is giving it too much play.

[Whisp]

18. Jon Stewart on Larry King talking about that now. nt

[Thrill]

20. Clinton News Network

[PresidentObama]

21. CNN played it on Lou Dobbs, and again on Larry King Live.
