They are covering their reporters making phonecalls and pulling people to safety more than they are covering what is actually going on in Haiti. It's the most shallow and useless fucking journalism I've seen and serves no purpose other than CNN giving itself constant blow jobs.

At least I'm not the only one who thinks so.

2. I can't watch anymore.
Who gives a shit what the tweets are doing? Wolf and Rick Sanchez (I think that's his name) totally suck. They're bangin this Haiti drum to death. The only one I watch anymore is John King once in a while.
