Real Teen over at Right on the Right is following a very interesting story about some shenanigans going on over at CNN. Thanks to him for allowing me to cross-post his article:

CNN PUTS X OVER CHENEY’S FACE DURING HIS SPEECH, DRUDGE CATCHES IT

CNN MARKS CHENEY: NETWORK FLASHES ‘X’ OVER VP’S FACE DURING LIVE SPEECH

**Exclusive**

At 11:04:45 AM ET Monday CNN was airing Vice President Dick Cheney’s speech live from the American Enterprise Institute in Washington — when a large black ‘X’ repeatedly flashed over the vice president’s face!

The ‘X’ over Cheney’s face appeared each time less than a second, creating an odd subliminal effect.

As this DRUDGE REPORT screen capture reveals, while one ‘X’ flashed over Cheney’s face CNN ran a headline at the bottom of its screen: “CHENEY: I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS WRONG TO CRITICIZE.”

One top White House source expressed concern about what was aired over CNN.

“Is someone in Atlanta trying to tell us something?”

A CNN spokesman did not return repeated calls late Monday night.

Developing…

What we’re trying to figure out is what is written over the text. It’s quite apparent that some sort of text or image is overlayed in black right under Cheney’s face. CNN has crossed the line this time, and the internet community is bound to catch on. If anyone has figured out what it says, send an e-mail to right@rightontheright.com and include a copy of the picture with the text in another color.

UPDATE: The Dan Report has broken the code…

The X overlayed was set on a timer, so it still may have been intentional. The text itself however was a technical message. A lot of the blogasphere is calling it a glitch, and Drudge is still trying to see what happens when CNN investigates. We’ll keep you posted.
