6. CNN show "(un)Reliable Sources" talked about it yesterday...
Here's what Arriena Huffington said to dipshit Howard Kurtz:

"I mean, you had your own headline anchorman, Chuck Roberts, describe Lamont as the al Qaeda candidate. This is an equally deceitful, fraudulent, fabricated statement. There should be zero tolerance for all those deceits, whether in images or words.

KURTZ: Well, what Chuck Roberts said, according to the transcript, was that some are calling Ned Lamont the al Qaeda candidate. But it's certainly not a formulation I would have used.

HUFFINGTON: Right -- nobody, see you cannot find a single person who called Lamont the al Qaeda candidate, except Chuck Roberts."

Then Arriena asks Howard a question:

"And what has been the consequences when it comes to Chuck Roberts? Has he been demoted to be covering Paris Hilton or entertainment news where the truth doesn't matter? It's about time that there is that same kind of accountability that Charles is demanding from photojournalists from journalists, as well."

Kurtz' response? Nothing. He turns to his rightie guest and starts talking about something completely different.

KURTZ: All right. Charles Johnson, let me bring you back to the question of this photo....
