CNN busted<\/a> for representing as a regular, undecided “swing voter” a woman who served as the Arkansas Democrats’ director of political affairs.<\/p>\n

This isn\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2t the only questioner whose background CNN chose to omit, either. I can give them a pass on another one Dan dug up just because you can\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2t expect them to know everything about a questioner\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s history. But how about a questioner who\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s appeared on their own network previously in his official role as leader of an interest group? Think that might be worth a mention? Eric Scheie is all over it. If Fox News tried passing off a local community leader who\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2d been on the network before in a quasi-expert capacity as some \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201crandom\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d Joe Citizen pitching special-interest softballs at a Republican debate, the nutroots supernova would be visible from the Andromeda galaxy. As it is, they\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2ll very feebly feign ignorance as to why we should care.<\/p>\n

Here\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s the video of Khalid Khan \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and yes, it\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s the same guy. According to the woman who got stuck with the dopey \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cdiamonds or pearls\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d question, the question about Yucca Mountain that she wanted to ask \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cwas APPROVED by CNN days in advance.\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d If CNN knew \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cdays in advance\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d what the questions would be \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and more importantly, who the questioners were \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009d why didn\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2t they do a cursory background check to see whether, oh, let\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s say, any of them had worked for the Democratic Party before or had appeared on their own network as a spokesman for an interest group?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
