• Never Let the Facts Get in the Way of a Good Story

  This is an interesting opportunity to see how the Main Stream Media slants the news, through editing, to sensationalize or to angle toward a specific viewpoint.  And before you all start pointing fingers at the "Liberal Media"  or "The Right Wing Conspiracy", they all do it.  FOX News or MSNBC doesn't matter, it's all filtered and packaged and Edwin R Murrow is spinning in his grave.  I'll bet Uncle Walter cries him self to sleep every night.
  
  This is a spot from a "CNN News Special" on Pro Wrestling.

  That's how it aired on CNN  Now watch the unedited interview.

  If they're willing to do that with something as meaningless as Pro Wrestling, I wonder what they're doing to the real news.
