I did a search on their site for '"john king" and CNN' to see what I found (search url is my name):

161 hits. Ok, He's clearly mentioned there. So I opened the 4 most recent "hits" on John King and this is what the MRC "dredged" up on this liberal media elite:

October 2007:

CNN used an old tactic in the mainstream media's play book -- a person overcome by emotion -- to drive home the point they wanted to make, that the only state that hasn't been visited by President Bush is Vermont. In a segment during the 4pm EDT hour of Wednesday's Situation Room detailing this apparent "snub," CNN chief national correspondent John King played a clip from an interview of Regina Gilbert, the mother of Kyle Gilbert, who was killed serving in Iraq four years ago. Gilbert fought back tears as she made her plea for a visit from the President: "I hope he does come, to our little state, 'cause I think that we've stepped up. And I'm hoping he will reflect and step up as well." In his introduction to King's piece, host Wolf Blitzer highlighted how Vermont "was the first state to outlaw slavery...the last state to get a WalMart, and it is the only state in the union not to have been visited by President Bush." Blitzer then asked King, "Is this a snub or an oversight?" King replied, "I think you can safely say 'snub,' Wolf."

January 2007:

Fourteen months after CNN's John King showcased retired Marine Colonel Jim Van Riper to illustrate military disillusionment with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and President Bush's Iraq policy, on Tuesday night, barely an hour before the State of the Union address, King checked in from New Bern, North Carolina and again featured Van Riper's criticisms as if they had fresh meaning. In a story, near the start of the 8pm EST Situation Room, about the stresses on Marines and soldiers caused by repeated deployments to Iraq, King highlighted how "retired Marine Colonel Jim Van Riper is more optimistic now that the Pentagon is under new leadership, but says strategic blunders by the President and his team have left the military near the breaking point." Van Riper asserted: "It's a horrendous operational tempo and along with that you've got equipment problems. These men and women now are operating at a much faster pace than we did, particularly in Vietnam or Desert Shield/Desert Storm." King, who in 2005 touted Van Riper's take as "telling," then depicted Van Riper's view as "striking" in a such a pro-Bush state.

October 2006:

Lynne Cheney was right. The Vice President's wife on Friday attacked a CNN pre-election special as straight out of Democratic talking points. The program in question, "Broken Government: Power Play," aired on Thursday, October 26 and discussed presidential power. Reporter John King introduced his special that night on location at Independence Hall, Philadelphia. Close your eyes and it sounds like an ad straight out of the DNC: "Justice, on Mr. Bush's terms, would mean challenge after challenge, test after test of the balance of powers laid out in the Constitution, adopted here in Philadelphia's Independence Hall 219 years ago, written by men, who, for all their brilliance, could not have imagined jet aircraft, let alone jet aircraft used as weapons. Nor could men determined to find the lasting antidote to tyranny have imagined the Internet, spy satellites, other technological advances now so central in the war on terror. But they did warn, in this hall, time and time again of too much presidential power, creating a careful system of checks by the Congress and the courts, lines the Bush administration, in the name of protecting Americans from another attack, has repeatedly stretched, rewritten, and sometimes just ignored."

October 2006:

With a title like "Broken Government: Power Play," one could probably assume that the Thursday night at 8pm EDT CNN special wouldn't be very fair to President Bush. But just in case there were any doubt, reporter John King appeared on Thursday's American Morning to drive home the point: "It's a fascinating subject. Many say, post-9/11, this President has crossed, stretched, some say trampled the Constitution in his pursuit of the war on terrorism. The President says whatever it takes. Some say he has busted the balance of powers, if you will, the constitutional lines. The President, of course, says no. It's one of the issues we're exploring as we look at the 'Broken Government.'"
