In that declaration, and in her refusal to say if she will accept election results if she loses the Arizona gubernatorial election, the former local TV news anchor was merely doing an impression of a previous candidate for office who ascended an escalator more than seven years ago, ushering in a new brand of made-for-TV politics. “I’m a reporter, I’ve been sitting on your side of the desk for a long time,” Lake told CNN’s Dana Bash, while casting skepticism on the U.S. electoral system. 10.17.22 Mar 25, 2015: CNN: Ted Cruz going on Obamacare

At a press conference held by Senate Democrats, Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid suggested that CNN congressional correspondent Dana Bash was “irresponsible and reckless” during an exchange over the funding for cancer research by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), ![]() ON THE RECORD: Feb 20, 2014: Jed Lewison (Daily Kos) has an article: "Ted Cruz says it's President Obama's fault people listen to Ted Nugent." It recounts a conversation Dana Bash (CNN) had with Ted Cruz about some comments made by Ted Nugent. It begins: "After playing a clip of GOP surrogate Ted Nugent calling President Obama a "sub-human mongrel," CNN reporter Dana Bash asked Texas Sen. Ted Cruz whether it was appropriate for Republican gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbott to campaign with Nugent." The article builds from there but all I want to address is that sentence as the premise for Bash asking anything about Nugent to Ted Cruz. Bash, and people on the same page as her on this (which are numerous) don't seem to know anything about Ted Nugent. As a good journalist it is important to know who your subjects are. It appears that Bash is accepting the same premise as Lewison when he called Nugent a "GOP surrogate." Nugent maybe lots of things but one thing he is not is any political party's surrogate. If anyone has taken the time to listen to Nugent they know that Nugent shoots from the hip. His words are seldom eloquently phrased but that is one of several reasons why so many people are enamored with him. People like Dana Bash dont understand that. Pundits like her are paid a few million dollars a year so they can live in elitist societies where people speak politically correct newspeak. No one can accuse Nugent of being politically correct. That is another reason people like him. Now, could he have used better words? Probably. CNN's Wolf Blitzer was the one, though, who tied the phrase into something our of Nazi Germany which is most likely something Nugent didnt think of all. Come on, media elite, get with the program. If you still think you need to be angry at Ted Nugent for being Ted Nugent I think Nugent will take you on. But now going through all the Republicans to tie them to Nugent is a witch hunt. And this witch hunt was born at CNN and with Wolf Blitzer. Nugent is nobody's surrogate

CNN ran a full-page ad in the New York Times on Monday, featuring mugshots of its marquee talent and the tagline, "Allow Us to Reintroduce Ourselves."
