An article on the CNN Money website features a curious headline above the picture of Republicans Newt Gingrich, Sarah Palin, and Marco Rubio. Titled ?Wingnut Debt Ceiling Demands,? the CNN article seemingly suggests that any conservative position that has doubts about raising the debt ceiling above $14.3 trillion is the extreme position of a ?wingnut.?
A ?wingnut? is a term often used to describe a member of the far out wing of a political party who espouses radical ideas. Why Gingrich, Palin and Rubio were selected, when two of the three aren?t currently serving politicians with a vote on the debt ceiling, isn?t exactly clear. The fact that the article seems to be an opinion piece seems to offer some justification for the opinionated and derisive headline, yet the fact that no such designation of ?opinion? or ?column? is made clear, it does leave critics of CNN with some ample ammunition.
