10/17/12, “Tries to Blunt Romney Criticism Over Candy,” TMZ

“CNN’s Managing Editor sent an email around the office today, praising Candy Crowley and trying to blunt criticism that she was unfair to Mitt Romney.

The email — sent by Mark Whitaker and obtained by TMZ — is almost a series of talking points to address Candy’s critics….

 

“On why Obama got more time to speak, it should be noted that Candy and her commission producers tried to keep it even but that Obama went on longer largely because he speaks more slowly.”"
