Newsbusters' Scott Whitlock
nails CNN's Miles O'Brien being himself--a recidivist liberal, no fair and no balance from Miles.
Here's the scoop: Mike Luckovich, the liberal cartoonist for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution is asked on CNN and earns a chuckle from O’Brien by asserting that "80 percent of the priesthood" is gay. Luckovich has a book to sell, but that's not CNN's problem--or is it? Evidently, the unfounded opinions of an agenda-ridden cartoonist are newsworthy down in Ted Turner Town.
Here's Whitlock's recap of the segment, as told to us by O'Brien and Luckovich: "80 percent of priests are gay, Saddam Hussein’s preferable to the current situation in Iraq, and 'Bush lied; People died."
And then Whitlock closes with a killer comment/questin: "Is devoting over six minutes to a guest with such hard-left beliefs really the way for CNN to combat its liberal label?" One way to find out.
