Objectivity

I know that the objectivity of the media, and journalism has effectively gone the way of the dodo bird.  But, to borrow a phrase from ESPN “Come on man!” things are getting a bit ridiculous when we see things like this:

CNN’s senior editor of Middle East affairs, Octavia Nasr, posted a message on her Twitter account on Sunday in which she expressed sadness at the death of Ayatollah Muhammad Hussein Fadlallah, described by terrorism analysts as the spiritual mentor of Hizbullah.

“Sad to hear of the passing of Sayyed Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah… One of Hezbollah’s giants I respect a lot,” Nasr wrote.
