What began as comical is now becoming annoying:

At the Roberts hearings yesterday, CNN cut away from Sen. Mike DeWine (R-OH), cut back -- hurriedly --to catch Dianne Feinstein's (D-CA) full questioning, then cut away (dismissively) from Sen. Sessions (R-AL). This morning they had a bunch of Sen. Leahy (D-VT), then cut away from Sens. Coburn (R-OK) and Brownback (R-KS) and then back to Ted Kennedy (D-MA).

I would be interested to hear if there's an explanation other than the obvious.

TRO, your partisanship is showing, too. Why didn't you give titles to Senators Feinstein and Kennedy, when you did for all the GOP officials?

But you did give some love to that socialist hack from Vermont. C'mon, man!

TRO, why do you bother watching communnist/socialist/liberal CNN?

They have every right to cover whateve they want, in whatever style/slant they want, just like Fox and MSNBC.

The "story" of these hearings is not CNN or FOX, it's what's going on in the hearing room.

CNN, NYT, WP don't hide or deny the widely known fact that they have liberal/left-of-center orientation.

OTOH, Fox's huge lie is that they are "Fair and Balanced (R)", somehow perfectly objective.
