  I am attempting to upload a video from CNN on my blog with the embeded code provided by CNN. But it does not work. I also tried uploading the video via vodpod.com but the site does not allow/read the code of CNN videos. Does anybody ahve any other suggestions on how to upload a CNN video on your blog?

  If Vodpod will not work, then with wordpress.COM blogs, you are out of luck. Since you did not provide a link to your blog, I am assuming that your blog is actually hosted here. If it is self-hosted, then the above would not be the case.

  can we have a link to your wordpress.com blog to make sure you’re in the right forum?

  if you are, I’ve tried to do the same thing with vodpod and it seems like it just doesn’t work on wordpress.COM blogs. Usually, if you do a search on google or youtube you might find the same exact video that isn’t using a CNN video player.

  CNN videos don’t work with Vodpod. Vodpod works fine with WordPress.

  My blog is Morriscountyhomes.wordpress.COM (yes it is a .com) which is hosted on the site. Thanks for all of your help.

  It’s also easier to respond if you provide a link to the video in question. A lot of media organizations don’t provide embed codes for all or some of their blogs.

  There is an embed code availble for the video
