And speaking of Eason Jordan, that boy sure has issues!

Via a commenter at LGF we find some primo wingnuttery via the President of South Africa, Thabo Mbeki, in Thabo on Davos:
During Davos 2004, Eason Jordan, Chief News Executive, CNN News Group, USA, said news organisations face difficult decisions about which stories to cover. He said, "We don't do everything right. We make mistakes." He said that no matter what story a news organisation covers, its bias is reflected in its choice and in the language it uses. As such, he said he finds objectivity and impartiality to be outdated, tired terms.
Well there's a surprise. Of course, ole Thabo's no slouch in the the wingnut department himself, so he was eating this stuff up.
