Liar Speaks

The current lead article on CNN's web site starts with: "Everybody in the world should know that there are no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq," Iraq's Deputy Prime Minister Tariq Aziz told CNN's "Late Edition With Wolf Blitzer."

Can someone explain why major media outlets treat well-known lying sacks of shit like Tariq Aziz as if they're telling the truth? Doesn't some kind of journalistic ethics require noting that Aziz lied his head off during the lead up to the Gulf War?
