Well. He apologized. See C&L for the transcript and (hopefully) video. Kudos to Roberts and CNN, and to the bloggers who wouldn’t let this comment die.

So far, I see 546 comments on this issue. I’m hoping all of you have taken the time to send your comments to CNN at http://edition.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form4a.html?1.

Madashell: thanks for your comments link at cnn. here’s what i sent:

RE: Chuck Roberts’ remarks to Hotline editor John Mercurio:

Roberts asked, â€œHow does this factor into the Lieberman/Lamont contest? And might some argue, as some have, that Lamont is the al Qaeda candidate?â€

How does CNN plan to correct this glaring slur of bias by Roberts, who is still boasted about on his bio page as being a member of the National Society of Professional Journalists.

What he said was neither professional nor journalism. Unless, of course, his story was about WHO these “some” are making scurilous comments like this. Yeah who is it?

Your viewers demand and deserve an apology and a corrective statement, from none other than Mr. Roberts himself.

We’re waiting. Or have I missed it?

I’m not a fan of the half truth ‘News’ at CNN or its competitors but they all function with scripted intro’s that open its ‘packaged’ news. Knowing the news is pavckaged means lessens the likelyhood of surprise answers I suppose.
Playing tape and listen to the entire responce of the Target. Mr. Guest Expert says it all perhaps allowing some sympathy for Ol’ Chuck Roast. Mr.Guest Expert is totally packaged and so prepared he explains why for TV viewers what ChuckR shoulda said when he intro’d Mr.G.E..

Good to see the rest of the blogs taking up this story.

MediaMatters has written to the head of CNN.

Are any of the MSM covering this story?

Chuck Roberts has got to go.

And no more right wingnut talking heads substituting for news anchors, either. MSNBC is doing that and they need to stop it.

Just sent the following message to CNN regarding the “Chuck Roberts ‘Lamont is the al Qaeda candidate?â€ comment but doubt that it will do ANY good at this formerly decent news network.

“First you try to out-’FOX’ Fox news, then you add Glen Beck, boy fascist-in-training to your staff, and finally you have Chuck Roberts on CNN Headline News ‘cutely’ refer to Ned Lamont as the “al Qaeda candidate?â€
Why don’t you just go all the way and merge with Rupert Murdock?
Any credibility you had left over from the middle of the road netowrk that Ted built is going fast. When the neo-con fascists led by president Cheney, Elliot Abrams and the rest of this crew of war criminals come for YOU, who do you think will stand up for your defense?
Sieg Heil y’all!”

Talk Nation » Ted Kennedy kicks ass — Mon, 14 Aug 2006 21:10:16 +0000

[...] In a way it’s about time this stuff started being said and I’m glad Kennedy is willing to say it. In another way it is a shame that it has to be Kennedy and that we have so few others who are willing to say this, say it loud, say it often and keep saying it until the media can no longer ignore it. When major media people like Chuck Roberts of CNN can call a candidate for political office this country “the al Qaeda candidate” (no matter the weasily way he put it, it’s about getting the phrase out there and have deniability because no one cares about how it was said, they just remember the phrase), then we obviously have a long way to go to get an honest press and the Democrats and progressives (not always the same thing) need to hammer relentlessly in order to get their drumbeat heard over the background noise.

This is pathetic. Having seen the whole interview, any sane person can see that Mr. Roberts is merely putting to his interviewee a question–a controversial question at that–suggested by comments, etc. of many others. Should not we celebrate the asking of questions such as these, rather than ignoring reality? Really, people, slow down, think a bit, try not to hurt your selves.
