“Breaking news video:” Journalists ogle Obama

By Michelle Malkin  •  May 9, 2008 03:44 PM

You know, when I read about this CNN video via Allahpundit yesterday, I threw up a little in my mouth. The clip of female journalists on a plane moaning as they watch Barack Obama talking on a cell phone was actually filed under “breaking news video” on the CNN website with the caption, “Obama in jeans: Sen. Barack Obama surprises the press corps by wearing jeans.”

Now, the video’s on YouTube. And it really should have a content warning advising viewers to watch it only on a completely empty stomach. Several members of the press corps yell at an agent to “sit down” because she’s obstructing their view. They giggle and sigh “You’re killing us” as he straddles across a row of seats and they furiously click away on their cameras.

Kneepads, ladies?

This is CNN.

UPDATE (See-Dubya):
Compare, contrast.

    Agreed.

    I second that.

    Do you ever get the feeling that the spirit of a true civil rights leader (MLK) is spinning in his grave knowing that his legacy has been hijacked and trampled by the likes of Jackson, Sharpton, Wright, Farrakhan, and the Obamas?
