Shorter CNN: I'm A Blogger, So I Love Lying

In a story on Bush's disgusting back rub to German chancellor Andrea Merkel, cnn.com talks about the power of bloggers to amplify a story. The story quotes the excellent blog firedoglake:

"This isn't a Sigma Chi kegger, it's the G-8 Summit,"

A valid point.

CNN follows it up by saying:

"(Bush was actually in Delta Kappa Epsilon. Another Web 2.0 truism: Blogs are not always friendly with the facts.)"

Clearly firedoglake hates the truth because the name of his fucking fraternity is wrong.

How fucking stupid. Classic--let's take an irrelevant fact to show how blogs aren't real news like CNN. We can't trust those dastardly blogs because they don't care about the truth. Real news only comes from mainstream media like us.

Christ.
