CNN: Two Bodies Doesn’t Mean Two Opinions
March 6, 2010 at 6:49 PM Leave a comment
I made the mistake of turning to CNN just now (6:33 p.m. ET) — “The Situation Room.” Wolf Blitzer’s guests are James Carville, a Democrat, and Ed Rollins, a Republican. They are discussing Senator Blanche Lincoln’s (D) bid for re-election in Arkansas. Carville admits that he’s supporting her. Rollins says she’s got to appeal to Independents. They both essentially agree that she’s a great candidate (something many Democrats strongly disagree with; she is seen as a Republican in Democratic clothing).
So, CNN, what was the point of this segment? Having two bodies on the set doesn’t necessarily mean the audience is hearing two opinions.
