1. Subject: their news chief is this guy


Eason.Jordan@turner.com

Feel free to e-mail him. He's written me back, so I know he gets them.

You can also fax him here:

I don't know who's above him, unfortunately

2. ....

jim walton is president now, he's the one on the right, dark tie. long time cnn'er... good guy, and i'm told he's a democrat.


below him for cnn USA, is this guy, princell hair. i'd GUESS he's a dem, but can't be too sure. he's relatively new. he's still making some changes.





below princell is this guy, cnn's news executive, eason jordan. not sure if he's a dem or not.




and below eason is the vp of news, sue bunda.

or Judy Woodruff, does it mean they really are?

3. I find no proof that Democrats or Independents have any influence
at CNN. They morphed and I remember the day that is was reported the the jefes went to the WH and asked how CNN could share in what was given to Fox and the NBCs.
