re: #50 Targetpractice

But why would CNN care, other than out of fear that doing so would have consequences for the network itself? Is it reporting the news or creating it?

I think TPM has it right, CNN has tried so hard to make itself seem totally unbiased (despite the fact they are still labeled as such by the right) that to report this would mean that they are somehow biased. They are looking out for their oh so precious reputation they are trying to maintain.
