EX-CNN CHIEF JORDAN TO LAUNCH IRAQ WEBSITE
Pioneering cable newsman Eason Jordan says he is launching a website, IraqSlogger.com, next week that will attempt to provide “nonpartisan” information about the war in Iraq principally from Iraqi natives. Jordan joined CNN in 1982 and was its chief news executive when he suddenly quit in 2003 after a storm of controversy over his remarks that some journalists who were killed in Iraq had been targeted by the U.S. Jordan told Editor and Publisherthat his goal was to create a website that would present information about the war with no “political slant.” A “beta” site offers links to mainstream media publications and under-reported accounts of such issues as the growing kidnapping of American contractors. E&Pdescribed the website as “a one-stop-shopping clearinghouse for nonpartisan information” about the conflict.
