Breaking News: Jordan Quits!

No, not that Jordan.

This Jordan. CNN News Executive Eason Jordan Quits:

CNN chief news executive Eason Jordan quit Friday amidst a furor over remarks he made in Switzerland last month about journalists killed by the U.S. military in Iraq.

Jordan said he was quitting to avoid CNN being "unfairly tarnished" by the controversy.

Power Line reacts.

UPDATE II: Professor Bainbridge says it's about time.
