The Most Busted Name In "News"

Hugh Hewitt

In Blog I wrote about CNN's massive effort to rebrand itself as "The Most Trusted Name in News." Today, thanks to Jordan, it is the most busted name in news, and the rebranding campaign is now worse than a joke --every billboard or commercial on which it appears or is intoned is a reminder of the vast gap between the promise and the delivery.

Do the Time Warner folks see the damage this erratic exec with a checkered record has done to their "up from the ashes" campaign? Jordan is also taking the brands of Davos, Howard Kurtz and the Washington Post down the well with him. Mickey Kaus isn't anyone's idea of a conservative, and his shredding of the Kurtz column has got to be the subject of some meetings around the Post today. Even David Gergen is dangerously close to getting sucked in as evidence mounts that this was a general smash and bash of the U.S. military done before an audience of mostly foreigners.

Unbelievable. The Davos people refuse to provide the tape. That should signal everyone that it would go very badly for Jordan if viewed by the American audience. Jordan should be demanding its release, and journalists should be asking Jordan whether he wants it released. Senator Dodd should demand the tape as part of an look at these allegations.
