Eliot Spitzer‘s CNN colleagues say he’s trying to steamroll management. The “Parker Spitzer” co-host responded nastily to a mass e-mail from CNN’s News Standards and Practices chief Rick Davis that offered guidance on how to report a poll on reaction to the State of the Union address. Shortly before the poll results aired Tuesday night, Davis advised CNN personnel to preface them with the expectation that there would be a positive reaction because more Democrats tend to watch a speech by a Democratic president than Republicans. But after the poll aired, Spitzer shot back in his own mass e-mail, “This poll is totally misleading and should not be aired as one who has studied these polls I woukd [sic] be embarassed to put these numbers on the air.” An insider cracked, “Since when is Spitzer a pollster?” A CNN rep said, “Eliot and Rick shared the same concerns, and we made sure to disclose the appropriate information to viewers to give them the full context.”
