There were eight reporters/write...Wrong, Anonymous. There were eight reporters/writers/ producers employed at the Israel Bureau. They fired every Jewish reporter and producer..although they may have kept on the odd driver or secretary. That's what the story was about - <i>Israeli Jewish journalists</i><br /><br />They deny 'rumors' that they no longer employ Israeli Jews in their Jerusalem bureau. But they're not denying that they no longer employ Israeli Jewish journalists in their Jerusalem bureau, which was what the story was about in the first place.<br /><br />They claim, "CNN currently has seven employees working in CNN's Jerusalem bureau, four of whom are Jewish." None of those Jewish employees are journalists.<br /><br />I stand by the story.<br /><br />I plead guilty to getting one thing wrong. The bureau chief is now Kevin Flower, and there's some evidence he might actually be situated in the US.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13332213651195340500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16816866.post-44705752460350323432012-02-13T03:57:35.050-08:002012-02-13T03:57:35.050-08:00CNN has responded, and I assume that the person wh...CNN has responded, and I assume that the person who put out this story will correct themselves, and stop spreading hate.<br /><br />http://cnnpressroom.blogs.cnn.com/2012/02/11/cnn-statement/<br /><br />In response to inaccurate reports, CNN has strongly denied since Friday rumors that it no longer employs Israeli Jews in its Jerusalem bureau.<br />The company has said:<br />"CNN has recently reviewed its worldwide operations, an exercise we do regularly to ensure operational and technological efficiency in everything we do. As part of this exercise, we have reorganized the CNN bureau in Jerusalem."<br />To counter misinformation reported on various websites, the company has confirmed:<br />"CNN currently has seven employees working in CNN's Jerusalem bureau, four of whom are Jewish. There is no basis in fact for these reports."<br />"Some website reports also state that CNN's Jerusalem bureau chief is Arab, which is also untrue."<br />"CNN strongly rejects any suggestion that the reorganization in the Jerusalem bureau is in any way based on the small number of contract employees concerned being Israeli, particularly given CNN’s long history of working with locals in the region."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16816866.post-17360672097484302392012-02-12T18:51:13.270-08:002012-02-12T18:51:13.270-08:00So,M.A....how do you fell about CNN firing all of ...So,M.A....how do you fell about CNN firing all of their Jewish reporters?Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13332213651195340500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16816866.post-43057358344253901082012-02-12T18:28:51.319-08:002012-02-12T18:28:51.319-08:00To "Anonymous" who states that "the...To "Anonymous" who states that "the worst anti-Jews and anti-Americans are JEWISH DEMOCRATS"------go back to your crack-pipe---The worst kind of "Anti-Jew" is an ignorant one----Thanks for demonstrating what that is for all of us!
