BENNETT REBUKES CNN

Posted at 11:24 p.m. ET

Republican stalwart, former secretary of education, and CNN contributor Bill Bennett has issued a stunning on-the-air rebuke to CNN for its handling of the Bristol Palin story.  CNN, like other mainstream outlets, has sent reporters to Alaska to dig up anything they can about Sarah Palin.  One CNN reporter went way over the top, and Bennett made his views know.  You can see the video here at NewsBusters.

CNN ran a "headline" under its picture today, announcing Bristol Palin's pregnancy.  It ran, literally, for hours.  I am appalled.

The in-the-tank-for-Obama media risks a real backlash if this continues.  May it come.
