UPDATE:<\/em> The mainstream media also critical of the “Clinton News Network (CNN)”<\/p>\n

The NY Times<\/em>:<\/a><\/p>\n

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton prepared for a battle with her Democratic rivals at the CNN-sponsored debate on Thursday night. She did not have much to fear from the postdebate round table.<\/p>\n

Among the experts trotted out by CNN to comment was James Carville, a Democratic strategist and CNN commentator who is also a close friend of Mrs. Clinton and a contributor to her campaign.<\/p>\n

Mr. Carville’s presence aroused the fury of rivals and bloggers. They called it a conflict of interest and criticized CNN.<\/p>\n

“Would it kill CNN to disclose that James Carville is a partisan Clinton supporter when talking about the presidential race?”\u009d Markos Moulitsas wrote on his liberal blog, Daily Kos. Mr. Moulitsas drew hundreds of comments.<\/p><\/div>\n

The LA Times<\/em>:<\/a><\/p>\n

If you’re one of those dutiful souls who felt that the responsible exercise of citizenship required you to watch Thursday’s debate among the Democratic candidates on CNN, you probably came away feeling as if you’d spent a couple of hours locked in the embrace of a time share salesman.<\/p>\n

We’re not talking about the candidates here, but about the shamelessly high-pressure pitch machine that has replaced the Cable News Network’s once smart and reliable campaign coverage. Was there ever a better backdrop than Las Vegas for the traveling wreck of a journalistic carnival that CNN’s political journalism has become? And can there now be any doubt that, in his last life, Wolf Blitzer had a booth on the midway, barking for the bearded lady and the dog-faced boy?<\/p><\/div>\n

Tim Dickinson at Rolling Stone<\/a> wonders if Wolf Blitzer is a douche or just a dislikeable fellow for running interference on behalf of Hillary.<\/p>\n

Eric Altermann<\/a> thought Joe Biden won the debate while, “The loser was Wolf Blitzer.”<\/p>\n

And the Gateway Pundit<\/a> has an excellent rundown on the entire CNN hearts Hillary debacle. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
