"There's a very high interest among viewers in legal news and entertainment," Jautz said.

Goody. What this tells me is that they anticipate the Michael Jackson trial being a big story, and they are blocking out 3 hours to cover it (entertainment and legal).

I can't tell you how excited I am at the prospect of all cable channels covering every sordid detail of Michael Jackson's psycho life, while they ignore such boring things as Social Security reform and foreign policy.

It could have been worse....they could have hired Triumph, the insult dog to compete with O'Reilly and you know how every body loves sock puppets.

OMG, the prospect of CNN airing the Jackson family story in-depth is enough to make my skin crawl.

Dysfunctional doesn't even come close to describing this living zoo of breast-baring, child molesting rogues and scalawags.

Wadda ya wanna bet it's another ratings disaster for the Crapola Network?

"...while they ignore such boring things as Social Security reform and foreign policy."

Arguable, ignoring these is actually better than the grossly biased 30-second sound bites and hate headlines they usually subject their audiences to.
