CNN - Wolf Ticket reports on Obama-Khalidi McCain fed frenzy, But Omits McCain-Khalidi Connections!

[FrenchieCat]

Call CNN and ask why McCain's own direct connections to Khalidi (McCain help fund the Oraganization Khalidi founded and served on).

Ask why is CNN NOT reporting this vital information. Voters are voting, and in them omitting this information althought they are aware of it is political manipulation by the News Media.

STORY BELOW:

McCain has his own connection to Khalidi.

In 1993, McCain became chairman of the International Republican Institute. He still chairs that respected organization.

That same year, Khalidi helped found the Center for Palestine Research and Studies, self-described as “an independent academic research and policy analysis institution” created to meet “the need for active Palestinian scholarship on issues related to Palestine.” (Its archived Web site is HERE.)

Khalidi was on the board of trustees through 1999.

According to tax returns, the McCain-chaired IRI funded the organization Khalidi founded and served on to the tune of $448,873 in 1998 (click HERE to see the tax return)* as first reported by Seth Couter Walls at HuffPo.

The IRI continued to give money to the CPRS after Khalidi left the group as well.

Asked to respond to this seeming contradiction.....

1. Do you actually ever get to talk to a live person?

I always get the voicemail box.

3. If you call the 1500 number, you get a live person........it is the Breaking News Department!

So you have to say....I have some breaking news.

2. did any of the pundits bring up McCain's connections?

[FrenchieCat]

4. It was only Wolf Blitzer on his Situation room by himself......

He showed a pic of Khalidi, and reported on the LA Times alleged tapes that McCain was asking be released. He showed a footage of McCain demanding these tapes be released.

He should have covered McCain's ties at that time, but did not.

5. Eason Jordan's email just bounced....

[FrenchieCat]

6. I usually go to that link page that lists all of the shows and the reporters by names...

I usually email the same thing to New Tip and News Story idea, and my choice of shows, in this case "Situation Room", as well as individual email to Wolf Blitzer and Jack Cafferty.

Also called the 1500 number and spoke with live Breaking news person, and left a message on viewers comments as well.

7. They also have the story listed as the T-2, above the fold story on

their website. And stating it as a fact that "Radical Professor" is Obama ally. The story itself is horrible. I've already contacted them multiple times, and included that fact that Palin was never asked to respond to her lack of reaction to the Jews for Jesus leader's statements in her church. Hell, I don't remember CNN ever reporting on that.

This is outrageous. The McPalin campaign is stirring up a 6 month old story, based on the ravings of the RW hatefest on radio, and the supposed MSM is falling right in line.

9. That's why they need to hear from us.

They know damn well what the truth is, and it is their job to report it, not to repeat McCain talking points and wait for the Obama camp to rebut it. They should be doing the fucking story.

then they turn around and talk about how they don't want to "deviate" from the News format to run an informacial.....and yet, they run McCain's talking point without a critical eye.

Assholes. Time-Warner and Disney love them some McPain! That's all this says.
