I've been watching CNN for an hour now and they have shown Paris, his daughters time on stage about 4 times now.  Is this all they have to go off of?

Used to watch CNN all of the time, especially for Robin Mead :2thumbs:.  When the station became so bias, I switched to Fox and only Fox.  Your right, CNN does suck, that is why the ratings are terrible.

All news channels are biased, they only report the crap that makes them money. I bet that right now, corrupt politicians, certain CEO's of companies in deep trouble, or any of the other greedy bastards, are all happy that Michael Jackson dropped dead. They literally watched the newscasters jump out of the bushes in front of their homes & back into their news vans to drive off to Never-Neverland to cover the newest & hottest garbage. This same media that couldn't wait to string MJ up from a tree for chasing boy scouts around his bedroom, are now praising him like he was a talented gift from the heavens.

I stopped regularly watching news coverage a long, long, time ago.  ::)

Best? Best for mindless zombies maybe.

I've got ya all beat...remember a few weeks back when they switched to DTV (for real this time, I'm not kidding, this time it's for real, we're REALLY switching here folks!) and knocked out my regular TV signal? Yeah, well I didn't buy one of those stupid boxes, nor did I buy a new TV. :icon_smile_tongue:
Man, is it peaceful at my house...and the COOLEST whole thing about this is that I haven't seen even 10 seconds coverage of the MJ circus!! :boogie:  The government mandated signal switch spared me having to see any of it! :smilielol:

Now if only I didn't have any internet & no radio signal, it may have been years before I knew he croaked. ;D



The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Turn on CNN, and they spend 18 hours a day milking the MJ story with positive coverage.  

Turn on FOX, and they spend 18 hours a day milking the MJ story by complaining about the MJ coverage everywhere else.  



I cast my vote with the "off" button.

The Ford Escort was the best selling car for a while in the 80s.

CNN's rating suck at least partly because the blue-state audience is watered down among most of the entire media.  Red networks like Fox have a pretty captive market since there is so little major conservative competition.


I remember a quote in an article about the decision to start Fox News and take a conservative bent.  "(Fox) spotted a niche market for a viewpoint that wasn't being covered - half the country."
