Peter Hamby's a political reporter too, for a network that proclaims themselves to be "“the most trusted name in news". That's a low bar, and yet one that CNN can not even credibly pass, now that Hamby has proudly tweeted to the world a shame that most seasoned reporters spend a lifetime trying to hide:
Newsbusters:

And should Hamby get cold feet, and regret coming out, well, the "whoops, wrong link!" dodge won't play:
If Hamby wanted to just report to his followers that Obama was heading to Milwaukee, he could have sent them a link to an Associated Press piece detailing such information without pushing them to a donation page:
"President Barack Obama is planning to visit Wisconsin later this month — another sign of the state's battleground status.
An invitation says Obama will hold a fundraiser and roundtable discussion at the Milwaukee Theater on Sept. 22."
Wonder if Hamby will keep his job at CNN?
Hey - HEY! Quit laughing, OK? Jeez...
