Congratulations, CNN

[Avalux]

A big bold caption describing Eric Rudolph:

American Terrorist

Didn't think they had it in them to call him what he really is (hadn't seen or heard it yet). On Anderson Cooper's show.

1. Good for Anderson!

He's no Olbermann, but he occasionally surprises me...

[patrice]

2. Someone observed earlier that corporate media is not

mentioning his attack on Gays. Probably makes Republicans uncomfortable because how similar he is to them.

11. Someone is full of it

Even FoxNews mentions it: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,153294,00.html

13. Okay, I take it back. They said NPR wasn't mentioning it. n/t

[neuvocat]

3. They got it past the CNN censors apparently.

[Bluebear]

4. Why not "Christian" terrorist?

They have no hesitation saying "Islamic terrorist"?

[kainah]

7. good point, Bluebear n/t

[FreedomAngel82]

12. That's what he is

He's a Christian terrorist apart of the Christian Taliban. Makes me sad what these people have done to the faith I believe. :mad:

[spanone]

14. How about 'Pro Life' terrorist or 'Culture of Life' terrorist?

[Bluebear]

15. Of course, just 'terrorist' should suffice

But as poster mopaul points out the media will not label his acts in the name of his religion although they say "Islamic terrorist" all the time.

5. kewl!

I like Anderson--he's "rumored" to be gay so this would hit home

[WLKjr]

6. Domestic Terrorists are more common than people think.

[saltpoint]

8. It kind of takes me by surprise to see CNN do this --

-- but I'll take it as a first step.

It's high time the Right understands that actual action predicated on their extreme belief system equals terrorism.

[Webster Green]

9. Its about time!

Earlier today they were referring to him as a "serial-bomber".

10. Get your jackets out - HELL JUST FROZE OVER!!!!

:scared:

I thought terrorists only had brown skin and worship strange gods

:sarcasm:
