'Targeting the Times' -- NewsBusters on CNN's American Morning

June 30th, 2006 3:22 PM

The homepage of NewsBusters.org was displayed on CNN briefly during the 7am EDT hour of American Morning. The blink-and-you'll-miss it moment was during an Andrea Koppel report on the House Republican resolution condeming the New York Times for its publication of a story that revealed a secret government program to track terrorists by monitoring international financial transactions. 

The NewsBusters homepage was on-screen during this segment of Koppel's voiceover:

 House Republicans are not alone in targeting the New York Times, along with other media. For days, bloggers have been up in arms, while conservative talk radio hosts like Rush Limbaugh have had a field day.
