    John King

    I never watch CNN anymore but I was channel surfing and happened to stop on this "interview"--it appalled me enough to prod me to write CNN an email--I too had thoughts about Pravda while I was watching this. The outright propaganda served up on our "news" channels is getting incredibly blatant. This combined with the 60 Minutes story about Seligman and its being blacked out on Alabama tv sets, and coming across a related story on how some social studies teacher in Alabama who is also a Democrat connected to the state legislature was hauled out of her house in handcuffs for apparently not working as many school hours as was in her contract make me truly wonder what is happening to our country and what we can do to stop this fascism.
