What did Wolf say about Sen. Obama!

[goclark]

I woke up to see Wolf on my TV Screen saying that he was going to call Sen. Obama and apologize for what appeared/was said on CNN earlier this morning.

What was Wolf talking about.... :puke:

[durrrty libby]

They showed a picture of Osama and was written....

"Where is Obama?"

[Virginia Dare]

1. They showed a picture of OBL, with a headline where's Obama...

really sick and over the top.

[goclark]

4. That is about as low as it goes

Seems like CNN made a few other "slips" like this in the pass months.

Don't they have a proof reader?!:puke:

[lancdem]

7. They SHOULD apologize for that

[goclark]

10. What makes me mad is that picture

is etched in the minds of the Swift Boat fools and they know it!
:puke:

2. Yesterday, CNN showed a graphic captioned "Where's Obama?"

on top of a picture of Osama Bin Laden:

[Whoa_Nelly]

3. CNN showed Osama and labeled it as "Where's Obama?"

Fuckers... :grr:

[goclark]

6. I am emailing them right now ~ I can't believe this was a "slip up!

:puke:

[goclark]

17. Here is the link to CNN "Contact Us"

I am so angry that I can't find their phone number on their website.

5. And I suppose they've written it off as nothing more than a....

Freudian slip??

[goclark]

8. Is this the same station

where the anchor,lady, went into the bathroom and was taped while she was gossiping with the woman in the next stall?

[originalpckelly]

11. Except that freudian slips are with speech, not a freaking keyboard...

and the fact is that someone else other than the person who typed the text in the graphic saw the graphic before it went on air. Didn't they notice?

And it couldn't have been a simple typing error either, because "s" and "b" are so far apart on a keyboard.

On top of that, it's the very same childish thing that freepers have been trying to mess around with, along with the fact his middle name is Hussein.

They are playing to racist fears of minorities.

[goclark]

15. You are so right!

This was no "mistake," the people responsible should be FIRED!

[ashling]

13. Sounds like a Roveian slip

:mad:

[originalpckelly]

16. Much better decription.

[npincus]

9. "earlier this morning"????

CNN had the "Obama" caption below Osama's pic LAST night! Did CNN do that AGAIN????? Today? (Saturday)

[goclark]

12. He just said today,Tuesday

that he was going to give Obama a call today -- are you saying that you heard it on Saturday and he is just getting around to it?!

[Kagemusha]

14. Wolf's only getting around to calling Obama to apologize today it seems

I'd heard about the pic earlier though I can't recall when.

[npincus]

18. nope- Monday night (last night) I saw the 'Obama" caption on live tv

Hubbie and I were in shock.

[goclark]

22. I just saw this link to another post about the CNN Swift Boaters

IMO,Democrats must really make a loud noise about this, not just because it's OBAMA but because it had to be intentional.

And, if they get away with this they will continue.

If Obama comes on CNN to address it, then they will be able to repeat the clip over and over again.

If he says nothing, they will still talk about it so that other stations pick up the smear.

Someone needs to not have a job and be identified as the one that did it.
Wolf should also be fired because I can't believe he didn't see it first.

I wish the Mods would combine the two threads.

21. Wolf said that he was calling Obama today --Tuesday!

And now I'm hearing that it happened on Saturday?

[Maccagirl]

19. I sent CNN an email

and said that Sen. Obama will be forced to accept Blitzer's apology, but I have the luxury of not having to accept their explanation or apology. Somewhere Karl Rove and Candy Crowley are smiling.

20. Thanks for sending them such an honest email

It is so Rovian!
