wolf blitzer, why did you censor cindy sheehan when you replayed your
interview with her? Why did you not play the part where she explains to you quite clearly why she calls george,"george" and why she has no respect for him even if he is president. that is censorship wolf blitzer...that should have been replayed too with the rest of your interview... are you still trying to convince people that you are a fair and balanced anchor, news station, whatever? what obscure reason could you have had for not replaying that part of your interview with her?

1. Because he's a useless tool...
If I never heard from Wolf Blitzer again my life would be richer.

like it was, and from my point of view, wolf just censored her.

edited to add: he censored her when he replayed the interview at the 7 o'clock time slot.

3. Without having seen the entire interview, or the cut version....
I would submit perhaps he can't show the entire interview due to time constraints, which is why it would be shortened.

I'll go look for both and check it out. Any links that can help?

11. Actually, replace "submit" with "am sure".
It's just reality.

6. time constraints... these days it may be because of something more like
this, as stated by manuel valenzuela in his article entitled Keepers at the Gate and published by Opednews.com :

"In this age of modernity and technology, where the television monitor has become the center of the average American household, from cradle to grave acting as surrogate parent, teacher, role model and as influencer of human thought, it should come as no surprise that entire populations can be controlled with such facility and efficiency, turning once thinking humans into grazing sheeple. For in today’s day and age, he who controls television controls the masses, and he who controls the masses controls the nation."

here, you can read the rest of the article, here:

4. It's the opposite of grace.
... just because they can. A moral injustice. Nothing new.

12. That's just another cynical part of their lying hypocracy.
That and not caring who they hurt.
