A news personality, an author and a blogger face all in one!
CNN’s The Situation Room has an hourly feature called The Cafferty File. It’s hosted by none other than Jack Cafferty.
Jack Cafferty is a straight talking CNN commentator who always tell it like it is. He doesn’t pull any punches and will say whatever comes to his mind. That’s what I like about him and that’s why I’m adding his “Face” to Blogger Faces.
One controversial remark from Jack was when a Osama Bin Laden tape came out just before the hearings on tapping Americans phones and Jack implying the timing of the release of the tape may not be a coincidence. Jack Said…
“The last time we got a tape from Osama bin Laden was right before the 2004 presidential election. Now here we are four days away from hearings starting in Washington into the wire tapping of America’s telephones without bothering to get a court order or a warrant, and up pops another tape from Osama bin Laden. Coincidence? Who knows?”
Each hour for the Cafferty File, Jack reads a question and viewers can answer them on his blog. Jack returns later in the hour to read some of the answers submitted on his blog. The questions are always on a wide range of topics like today’s questions: How Would $4/Gallon Gas Affect You? or News Media Unfair to Clinton? or yesterday’s question McCain’s success tied to Iraq war?
It’s a popular segment on CNN and with good reason. Jack will also sit in with a panel and Wolf Blitzer to discuss daily events in typical Jack Cafferty way.
On a personal note Jack Cafferty was born on December 14, 1942 in Chicago, Illinois. Before he joined the Situation Room in the summer of 2005, he was co-anchor of CNN’s American Morning.
On September 10th, 2007, John Wiley & Sons published Jack Cafferty’s book “It’s Getting Ugly Out There: The Frauds, Bunglers, Liars, and Losers Who Are Hurting America
Face it, you get the File, the blog and the book.
