 HTTPS Everywhere for Chrome is preventing CNN videos from playing.

 Try this link in Chrome:
 http://www.cnn.com/video/?hpt=hp_t3#/video/sports/2012/09/16/hln-football-
 player-scores-ten-touchdowns.hln

 If I disable HTTPS Everywhere for Chrome the video will play.

 Note that this issue seems to be unique to the Chrome version of the
 extension. HTTPS Everywhere for Firefox does NOT interfere with CNN
 videos.
