The Drudge Reports claims to have obtained an internal CNN memo (allegedly penned by a reporter in CNN’s Chicago bureau) advising “staffers to hold off reporting on a new book,” Kenneth Timmerman’s Shakedown, “which presents a damning portrait of former CNN host and civil rights activist Rev. Jesse Jackson.” Drudge writes:

‘Kenneth Timmerman is a long time writer and investigator touting conservative causes,’ the CNN memo notes.

‘He is recently a failed political candidate [ran for US Senate in Maryland] whose own bio points out he studied creative writing at Brown.’

Yes, that Brown University School of the Humanities — hotbed of conservative activism! And he’s [cue: sinister music] a creative writer, to boot! Quick, somebody double Ted Kennedy’s guard detail! Project 7’s on the move!

Untrustworthy bastard. Bet he’s a Christian, too, this “Timmerman.”
