Top story on CNN.com today is a column by Lou Dobbs

I can't decide if this is terrible journalism for a major news website or just shalemess corporate network television self-promotion intended to pump up ratings. At 3:24 pm today the very top "Latest News" story on CNN.com is: Dobbs: Immigration deal raises serious questions. Granted that Dobbs has made a name for himself on this issue, but are his comments, which are already widely known, truly the hour's "top" story?
