The Marginalization of CNN

CNN, which has always had a somewhat -- and sometimes more so than others -- leftist lean, has always been a judicious user of the Annenburg School's FactCheck dot org when seeking to discredit or point out the truthfulness of political advertising claims. So why aren't they doing it in this case? [Hat-tip to Drudge!]

NARAL (the National Abortion Rights Action League) is going after Supreme Court nominee John Roberts with a bogus ad CNN has no problem running on its own network. Even though FactCheck says the claims it makes are untrue. Just another example of the MSM going to bat for the DNC.

UPDATE 8:39am: Fixed FactCheck link. Added link to ad claims.
