No wonder nobody trusts the media anymore, they can't the difference between crap and important information. On the CNN website they had a story about Britney spying on K-fed, a furr ball in a girls intestine, a mayor in Arkansas being abducted by satan, and a death related to a tongue piercing. My God, who is in charge over there, Homer Simpson?

They are obviously playing to their audience. How sad ... and how dangerous for a democracy that depends on the media for the continuing education of its populace.

You got that right! You just want to shake them and say no more long narratives, read my lips. Once in a while is okay, but, hey same thing five days a week. As you pointed out, the story lines are weak. I've had no recourse but to sneak over to CNN's rival, Fox. They made me do it.

If they had Homer Simpson there at least they would have some ratings.
How does it matter what CNN shows anymore; nobody is watching

I would guess YES, thats why I only watch FOX, and when we travel, its always where we are, no matter where we are FOX is on t.v.'s even out of the country!!!!!!!!! I haven't watched cnn or any other affiliate in years, because they don't let you in on the truth of the matter !!!!!!!!!! sounds like cnn has a slow new's day!!!!!
