CNN news chief caves

The CNN's chief news executive Eason Jordan has resigned amid controversy over the death of journalists in Iraq.

Last month, Mr Jordan appeared to suggest that US-led forces had deliberately targeted journalists, killing some.

But in a message to staff on Friday, he said he had not intended to say US forces had acted with ill intent when they had accidentally killed reporters.

That was no accident.

Thirty-six journalists - and 18 media support workers - have been killed since the beginning of hostilities in Iraq in March 2003, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ).

At least nine have died as a result of American fire, said Ann Cooper, executive director of the CPJ.

Let this be another lesson.

Attorneys who defend BushCo's "enemies" will be prosecuted. Whistleblowers who speak out against BushCo will have their lives destroyed. Objectors to BushCo's agenda will be smeared. And journalists who hint at the truth will be crushed.

The juggernaut has a full head of steam. It's Tienanman Square time in the USA.
