THE IPINIONS JOURNAL cited on CNN

Featuring Blog correspondents Jacki Schechner and Abbi Tatton.

There are well over 10 million weblogs on the Internet. Therefore, it is a really big deal whenever one of them is selected for citation on CNN – the most venerable cable news network in the entire world.

And so today I report with great honour and profound humility that THE IPINIONS JOURNAL was cited on the CNN program Inside Politics on 12 May 2005. CNN Correspondent Jacki Schechner credited (and quoted from) IPINIONS for her report on the story of the day: The Red Alert that had people at the White House and US Congress running for their lives. (Click here to read my IPINIONS article on the alert and here to read the citation: scroll down towards the end of the transcript to the exchange between host Judy Woodruff and Schechner.)

I am especially grateful for this citation because THE IPINIONS JOURNAL is dedicated to commentary on issues that extend far beyond politics. But, if its feature on CNN prompts political junkies to check-out IPINIONS, then I bid them all an intellectually eclectic welcome.

Thanks CNN!
