I think at this point its best if everyone waits until the interview actually airs before making any more judgements. It seems a little crazy that the situation has gotten to the level that it is at before the interview is even shown.


I think Arrington is right to worry that the interview actually won't air, but only the out of context sound bites that confirms CNN's version of reality. And he is right to pre-empt that situation by posting that assumption in public. Because then he can use the age old defense "I told you this would happen" which, perhaps contrary to common belief, actually is effective despite its banality.


I agree. All this drama over an un-aired special. CNN must be so happy with the hype created and the ratings that will result.
