CNN’s Sliding Scale Of Responsibility

Does anyone besides myself find it slightly disingenous that CNN yawns when Bob Novak outs a CIA agent and gets caught up in a Dept. of Justice dragnet, but goes into full fledged outrage mode when he curses on national TV?

It’s not just that they have misplaced priorities. They have no priorities.

UPDATE: Novak lectured James Carville on being a potty mouth.

    Oliver,
    All cable news networks have given up on standards but that is because they are there to entertain and dazzle. I used to partake in the whole Facist New Network/ Communist News Network drivle when I thought they were letting the public down, but it is clear they should be ignored permently.
