People who would watch CNN generally have the same intellectual foundation as those who “get their news” from Jon Stewart or their societal mindset from a dopey TV or reality show. Meaning, why watch Piers Morgan or the latest NewsBabe when “Like, Oh my God, I can like be entertained and like get my news, too?”

But CNN is an important resource, nationally and internationally. CNN actually matters.

It should and could matter because of it's resources but those resources are being used as propoganda to prop up Democrats, anti-American and Socialist policies (redundant, I know).

The viewing public see this, ipsofacto, it doesn't matter.

They’d rather be Left than be right.

They’d rather be Left than have decent ratings.

CNN made their bones reporting the news faster and better than anyone else.

They comitted suicide when they decided to give up reporting the news and join the rest in shaping the news.

What it doesn’t have is leadership balance. It isn’t likely to get it any time soon.

Fixed it.

But enough about the earthquake.

Have you seen George W. Bush’s poll numbers tanking?

CNN’s only purpose today is to serve as the direct competitor to MSLSD in their race to oblivion. May they both win quickly and be replaced with Lucy or Gilligan’s Island reruns...

Your comparison to the NY Yankees would be more appropriate if you had scratched out Scranton and substituted Trenton. Scranton/Wilkes Barre is their AAA team and Trenton their AA team.

With a homosexual, ‘Anderson Cooper’ who in the hell would name their progeny Anderson, and a Blitz Woofer as anchors what would one expect?

The rest of the mainstream media is busily crawling though the gutter with liars like Mr. Ed, Soledad and Madcow lip-synching Obozo;s talking points they’ll soon be toast.

Thursday night I didn't get any choice in what to watch (public gym). Soledad O'Brien in for Anderson Cooper put on the identical show as Rachael Maddow on MSNBC.

My only guess is they read the same blogs for topics.
