Woah, CNN headline news
Anyone watch it lately? It used to be kind of robotic and no-nonsense... they got some young, good-looking anchors and now "chat". Kind of seems like they're copying Fox now, almost. My only complaint is that the "chattiness" is usually pretty shallow and isn't particuilarly useful.

1. I stopped watching broadcast 'news' over a year ago
because it ceased to be news. It's all infotainment now, that tows the PNAC line to a greater or lesser degress. CNN is neocon lite, IMO.

2. I don't have cable.
The only time I see CNN is for a few seconds at an airport or in a motel room.
I think its a big waste to time.
