Bill Clinton Gets Prime-Time Convention Speech
Former President Bill Clinton is slated to deliver a prime-time speech at the Democratic National Convention in September, and will place President Obama’s name into nomination, The New York Times reports.
“There isn’t anybody on the planet who has a greater perspective on not just the last four years, but the last two decades, than Bill Clinton,†David Axelrod, a top adviser to the Obama campaign, told The Times. “He can really articulate the choice that is before people.â€
Clinton has diverged with Obama at times during the campaign season. He has said that he would recommend temporarily extending all the Bush-era tax cuts (Obama is seeking an extension for income up to $250,000) and also had praise for Mitt Romney’s time as the CEO of Bain Capital, calling his record ‘sterling.’ In each of those cases Clinton walked back those assertions.

CNN Apologizes For Playing Song Titled ‘Stupid Girls’ Ahead of Sarah Palin Segment
CNN has apologized for what it says “was a poor choice†of music to accompany a news story.
The story was about Fox News contributor and former GOP VP candidate Sarah Palin, who was visiting a local Chik-Fil-A fast food restaurant. The song was “Stupid Girls,†by Pink. Some viewers noticed the correlation, and complained vocally.
The Hollywood Reporter received a statement from CNN apologizing for the incident, which it says was not intentional.
“The music selection was a poor choice and was not intended to be linked to any news story,†a CNN spokesperson told The Hollywood Reporter. “We regret any perception that they were planned together.â€
Introducing the segment after the intro, CNN Sunday Morning anchor Randy Kaye said, “Sarah Palin is apparently hungry for chicken and controversy.â€
