With no mention of record projected deficit, CBS allowed Matalin to spin Bolten appointment

SUMMARY: On CBS' The Early Show, co-host Harry Smith allowed Mary Matalin to tout new White House chief of staff Joshua Bolten's "extraordinary credentials, credibility and experience, and relationships on the Hill with his work" as director of the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) without ever informing viewers that as OMB director, Bolten oversaw the 2006 budget, which the White House predicts will produce the largest deficit ever.
