Apparently, CNN doesn't care about being the most relevant name in news anymore, they only want to be the new Fox News at any cost.

Mediaite is reporting that CNN sent secret emails to Right Wing Bloggers to express their support for the Tea-baggers' cause. Mediaite's Tommy Christopher took a look at this story after Crooks and Liars wondered why CNN was "pimping" the Great American "Tea Party Express PR and Propaganda Tour."

According to Christopher, conservative Newsbusters' post, with an email from CNN, seems to confirm elements of liberal Crooks and Liars‘ thesis, or at the very least, that CNN is trying to have it both ways. Since, then, Newsbusters has removed the email in question. In the post, Newsbusters credits CNN for what it considers to be "one of the first to offer fair coverage of the Tea Party movement outside of Fox News".

Mediaite found some quotes from emails sent by CNN's PR department to a list of right wing bloggers.

Here what CNN, reportedly, sent to Michelle Malkin :

"Hi there, I thought this might be an interesting post for you- a behind-the-scenes piece about the Tea Party and how the stereotypes don’t tell the full story. Let me know if you need anything else!"

In their email sent to Brent Bozell of Newsbusters parent Media Research Center, CNN seems to bash the Left in order to prove their support for the teabaggers :

"Clearly our critics from the left don’t think we should be covering the Tea Party movement in the way we are and clearly CNN thinks it’s a legitimate and important story. If anyone from Newsbusters is interested in this angle – let me know."

Maybe CNN should have kept focusing on their twitter thing or their magic map instead of becoming a real joke. CNN had the choice to be the BBC of the United States letting MSNBC and FOX News with their partisan and biased views. But look like CNN rather be Fox News than BBC
