Even after Blitzer called McKinney footage "not unusual at all," CNN continued to air it while ignoring footage of DeLay supporter in altercation

SUMMARY: CNN's American Morning twice aired video footage showing a confrontation between a TV reporter and an aide to Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) outside the Capitol, despite the fact that the previous day, CNN's Wolf Blitzer described the confrontation as "not unusual at all." By contrast, CNN has not once mentioned or aired a video of a supporter for Rep. Tom DeLay (R-TX), part of a group of DeLay supporters who disrupted a press conference by DeLay's former election opponent, who pulled a hat over the face of a 69-year-old woman.
