Yesterday, the progressive watchdog group Media Matters blasted out a press release (http://mediamatters.org/press/releases/200907230028 - broken link) to reporters charging that "CNN has a very serious Lou Dobbs problem." Now, it seems the message may have started to seep through. TVNewser reported today that Jon Klein sent a memo to group of Dobbs' staffers explaining in no uncertain terms that the whole "birthers" story is "dead."

Dobbs is awful, can't believe CNN wants him, he belongs on Fox. Why didn't he just stick to his illegal immigration schtick.

I don't buy into the birther thing, but why should he be fired for it? Also, his contract probably says he is supposed to be controversial.

Hitting too close to home maybe ?

Glad I gave up cable TV. It was becoming too much propaganda for me and not just in a government way. I much prefer the internet to get caught up on my shows.
