I Pit CNN (The Commune News Network) for their recent choice "topics"

Who the fuck reads cable news websites? Cable news is bad enough without delving into the content that didn’t quite make the air. Linking to these blog posts probably tripled their readership.

Seriously, how did you come across these?

I know the 4H story hit Fark, not sure about the other one.

I pay almost no attention to cable news in general, much less CNN, so the OP can calm down a bit. I’m not about to search out 4H’ers and dump fake blood on them, and I haven’t posted any proposed constitutional amendments to my facebook page. Er, yet. I’m just sayin’.

And while we’re about it…Commune News Network? Is there something far out and groovy about Wolf Blitzer? The imagination falters…

Well, TV is supposed to be a waste of time, and it fills that role [del]rather[/del] quite well. As long as you’re not trying to use it to get yourself informed about the world and current events, you can safely watch all the TV you can stand.

Watching “news” on the thing? Most vapid way you can use up electrons. Mr. Ed reruns would be a more productive use of your synapses.

I am, but only because it’s past the season for doing that to Girl Scouts, not because of CNN.

Sounds like you sort of agree with me. Looks like I get away with being an asshole about TV on the internet!!! :smiley:
