CNN is going through great lengths to give the Pro-Iraeli rally in Washington today as much coverage as possible. Not that I exactly disagree with being pro-Israel -- although something in this reeks of anti-Palestinian sentiments -- but why does this major news network choose this, of all the DC rallies and protests, to exhaust major headlines over? CNN and their ilk only come on the scene of, shall we say, more liberal gatherings...after something goes wrong (and then it's usually blamed on someone with long hair or dark skin). I'm surprised when people say CNN is leaning toward Palestinian sympathy, because it's pretty clear to me that most of their commentary focuses on putting Israeli action in a good light when, in fact, it's bordering on ethnic cleansing. Nowadays I guess if you're not Rush Limbaugh, you're a bleeding heart.
