Your "liberal media" at work

David Holthouse reports at the Southern Poverty Law Center's Hatewatch blog that Extremist Steve Sailer is Source for CNN’s ‘Black in America’ Series 07/25/08:

As part of its ongoing "Black in America" project, CNN posted a story to its website earlier this week titled "Could an Obama presidency hurt black Americans?" Credited to CNN correspondent John Blake, the piece quotes the wit and wisdom of Steve Sailer, identified only as "a columnist for The American Conservative magazine." ...

What the CNN article fails to note is that in addition to writing columns and movie reviews for The American Conservative, Sailer is the founder of the Human Biodiversity Institute, a neo-eugenics online discussion forum where right-wing journalists and race scientists have promoted selective breeding of the human species. He also writes frequently for the anti-immigrant hate site Vdare.com, named for the first white child born in America, and runs a website, isteve.com.

Holthouse goes on to describe similar lapses of good judgment on CNN's part.
