Blitzer interviewed John Edwards on topic of media monopolies...
Did anyone see it? I was listening to the radio on the way home from work this evening (CNN on Sirius)and caught the end of the interview.
Wolf kept hounding JE about returning the money from a book published by one of News Corp's companies. I think JE was talking about Murdoch owning a monopoly of news outlets and how bad that is for the country. He was calling on candidates to return campaign donations from News Corp.
JE explained that the money from his book was given to charities, just as he promised but Wolf kept saying if he is telling candidates to give back money then why is it okay for JE to keep his.
Aaarrgh!!:banghead:
Wolf is an idiot!!! Seems to me there is a difference between being paid for writing a book (and giving all proceeds to charity)and accepting campaign donations.
That's what I get for tuning in to the news. I should know better.
