Gist TV 416888-1 <daily@mailhost.gist.com> CNN Queries Bin Laden Osama bin Laden seems to be ready to talk to the media. A representative of the man suspected of masterminding the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks has contacted CNN and asked the network to submit questions for bin Laden, Variety reports. The elusive terrorist would then apparently answer the questions on videotape. The contact came via Al-Jazeera TV, the Arab satellite broadcaster, which will also air the tape. CNN submitted six questions to Al-Jazeera on Tuesday, but there's no guarantee the "interview" will air. "We will look at the tape, if there is a tape, and decide how much or how little to run," CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer said on the air Tuesday. "If we believe his comments are not newsworthy, we will not run any of them." CNN, the first network to sign an exclusive agreement with Al-Jazeera, has agreed to share the bin Laden tape with other networks. Last week, following a request from national-security adviser Condoleezza Rice, the networks agreed not to broadcast footage of statements from bin Laden or members of his Al-Qaeda network without prescreening or editing it.
