I love the dilemma CNN, the formerly respected news channel, finds itself in: After running a feel-good special on Latinos in America, it finds itself the object of vociferous criticism—from Latinos—for continuing to air the bigoted rants of Lou Dobbs.

The hypocrisy, critics say, lies in CNN’s decision to woo Hispanic viewers with a prime-time documentary while still giving Mr. Dobbs a nightly forum. Roberto Lovato, a founding member of Presente.org, a Latino advocacy group, said in a statement, “We won’t allow the network to court us as viewers while, at the same time, they allow Dobbs to spread lies and misinformation about us each night.”

Other groups are blasting Dobbs because he’s a birther, which is to say, a bigot.

CNN says that Dobbs’ hour-long show isn’t commentary but a newscast, which, if you’ve ever watched the show, is either an insult to the intelligence of CNN viewers or a recognition of the intelligence of Dobbs’ fan base.

But there’s hope: Dobbs may leave CNN to go to Fox, which would be about right. Let’s get all the haters in one place, and then change the channel.
