I’m not sure what it means or what’s going on, but something odd is going on at CNN. May be it’s nothing or maybe it’s something. Just thought I should thing about it and hopefully get some input on this subject.

The Obama campaign asked CNN to air its 30-minute campaign ad, scheduled for Wednesday evening, but the network turned them down.

CNN said in a Tuesday statement. “We did not want to pre-empt our programming lineup with a 30-minute campaign commercial. We prefer to use our air to continue to cover the campaign, candidates and issues like we always do from all points of view with the best political team on television.”

Obama in his 30 minute commercial lay down his plan to save the country’s financial disaster by interviewing everyday hard working Americans. Obama never once mention McCain or Palin. Instead he focused on everything that mattered to us.

Larry King gave McCain a FREE on air opportunity to bash Obama’s spending on his spending. He whined about not being able to raised as much money as Obama and he went on and on about Palin. McCain even accused Obama of attending a banquet 5 years ago by a Chicago Professor who spoke about the PLO.

Some are calling this McCain’s best interview so close to the end. CNN gave the man free time to throw the kitchen sink at Obama.

This decision is as bad as giving D.L. Hugley his own show. Also, I heard something interesting for the first time on CNN. Anderson Cooper said that they do not take side in this campaign while reading a story.

Please let me know what you all think, because I’m confused.
