Well at least we now know what President
Obama meant when he said there are more
important issues. Thanks for the lineup.
John King and Wolf Blitzer got it right. It will
be interesting to see what CNN does all day
long and in prime time. At some point today
there should be a military briefing. Wonder
if they will release photos or video.
I was surprised Anderson was not there. Kind of a slap in the face. They send him to the wedding that he seemed to not want to cover, but when there is breaking news they ignore him.Plus, when was the last time King or Wolf cover anything about a war out on the field.They just anchor behind there desk. i was disapointed they snubbed Anderson.
Anderson even said he was surprised that they didn't call him in. Additionally, John King seemed to be having some kind of medical or perhaps a sleep issue during his reports the other night which have some wondering why CNN would still bring him in. Anderson was ready to go and while some don't think he's up to the task, he would've handled it all very well.
