CNN to Disclose Carville's Hillary Ties

This came out over the weekend but our team of Googling monkeys must somehow have missed it...

Last week, CNN provoked a firestorm of blogospheric outrage when its post-debate analysis featured James Carville, without disclosing that Mr. Carville -- who helped elect Bill Clinton president -- is now actively supporting Hillary.

Now, Jon Klein says his network will do better in the future. "He's not on the Hillary payroll, but he's on the Hillary bandwagon, and that should be disclosed as much as we can," Mr. Klein told The Times. "I wasn’t comfortable with it myself as I watched it."
