Easongate Update

Hugh Hewitt has a must-read Easongate update today looking at CNN, "The most busted name in news." Also keeping on top of the scandal is Instapundit and the group blog Easongate Howard Kurtz, the Washington Post media columnist who also works for Eason Jordan and CNN, helped Jordan continue to whitewash and cover-up the slanderous accusations he leveled at the U.S. military while in Davos, Switzerland, last week. Kurtz is self-parodying portrait of the term "conflict of interest" but his Jordan story may convince the rest of the mainstream media to let the stonewall stand.

By the way, if you think the name Eason Jordan is familiar, that's because he's the CNN executive who admitted two years ago that CNN had been covering up atrocities committed by Saddam Hussein's regime in order to continue being allowed to keep the CNN bureau open in Baghdad.
