Corsi, CNN and Media Matters: the WWE of Controlled Opposition

This has SOROS FINGERPRINTS all over it!

 

Larry King Interviews Corsi – With Media Matters Almost Co-Hosting

 

By Tim Graham | August 15, 2008 8:42 AM EDT

On Wednesday night’s "Larry King Live," CNN interviewed conservative author Jerome Corsi on his new book "The Obama Nation," but Larry King made him sit next to Paul Waldman of the left-wing group Media Matters, who questioned Corsi like he was co-host and continuously badgered him as a liar. King asked Waldman softballs: "Paul, you denounced the book as unfit for publication. Meaning?" King set the tone at the top of the show: "Tonight, is Barack Obama being swiftboated? The man who wrote that book on John Kerry now makes some incredible and even false claims about the current Democratic candidate."

 

This could be seen as progress, since neither Corsi nor his co-author John O’Neill appeared on "Larry King Live" in 2004. But what does it say about CNN’s confidence in King as an interviewer or CNN’s sensitivity to liberal partisans that Media Matters has to be brought on to badger the interviewee?

 

King began by drawing out Corsi’s admission that he wants Barack Obama to lose: "Mr. Corsi, did you say – did you tell The New York Times the purpose of the book is to defeat Obama? Corsi said yes. King underlined it, again: "Did you – as a good investigative reporter, did you approach this objectively or not?"

 

King then brought on Media Matters, and even announced their own glowing description of themselves: "In Washington is Paul Waldman, senior fellow at Media Matters for America. Media Matters describes itself as ‘A progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing and correcting conservative misinformation in the United States media.’"

CORSI: I stated they were not written to express my true views. They were intentionally written to be antagonistic or aggressive or provocative.
