Kitty smells a rat at CNN

Kitty Kelley is suggesting that CNN's [hormonal cadaver] Larry King won't let her on his show to promote her upcoming book, "The Family: The Real Story of the Bush Dynasty," because he's a toady of the Bush family.

"I realize how important the Bushes are to Larry," Kelley said. "He does not want to lose their friendship or offend them in any way. And having me on his show would probably anger the family, because they made their feelings clear from the beginning ... when the former President Bush called my publisher and said he did not want this book written and would not cooperate in any way. So I certainly understand Larry's refusal to book me."

King couldn't be reached for comment.

White House pressures media to ignore Kelley's book
A representative of the White House recently called the president of NBC News, to discourage the network from broadcasting interviews with Ms. Kelley about the book on its Today program and on Hardball With Chris Matthews, a network executive said.

Jebus.
