When you watch CNN, you help Osama By DonSurber Enough already. Someone has to state the obvious: CNN hates America. Simply hates the nation. It was begun by a Southern who loathed the South -- Liberal Billionaire Ted Turner -- and coached over the years by elitists who hate America, Americans and what America stands for. Can anyone forget Eason Jordan's admission that he aided and abettee Saddam Husein's reign of terror just so CNN could keep its bureau open in Baghdad? It was a cover-up by a multi-national company that put business -- making a buck -- ahead of telling the truth. Why would anyone watch CNN after that? Over the years, viewers have forgiven but not fogotten, or at least this one has. But now, in the midst of a war, it is trading with the enemy. CNN aired a video of enemy snipers killing our soldiers. In doing so, it provided a bounty to these snipers. CNN in effect put a price on the head of every American soldier. Kill 'em. Tape it. We'll show it. CNN has encouraged the kiling of Americans. CNN has turned itself into a platform for enemy propaganda. It is a snuff film, thrilling those who hate America. California Republican Congressmen Duncan Hunter, Darrell Issa and Brian Bilbray have called for sanctions for CNN. AP reported: "SAN DIEGO The chair of the House Armed Services Committee asked the Pentagon today to remove CNN reporters embedded with US combat units. "The network televised portions of a video on Wednesday showing insurgent snipers targeting US military personnel.Executives said the tape came to the network unexpectedly through contact with an insurgent leader.Representative Duncan Hunter wrote in his letter that, quote, 'CNN has now served as the publicist for an enemy propaganda film featuring the killing of an American soldier.' "San Diego-area Republicans Darrell Issa and Brian Bilbray also signed the letter.CNN executives defended their decision to air the footage, saying its news value outweighed other concerns." I am supposed to trust the news judgment of a network that was headed by the likes of Eason Jordan? How ironic that a network that refused to cast Saddam Hussein in a bad light is airing snuff videos of American soldiers. This is not news. This is war profiteering by a multi-national corporate giant. This is the last straw.
