If they ditch that dumb shit over-emoting Brooke Baldwin, I'd be happy.
They will go out of business soon if they don't do something different.
:lmfao: Hopefully this is the start of the terminal decline of 24 hour news network, and not just a punishment for trying to be non-partisan. News networks need to go for the sake of our democracy.
If MTV has stopped playing music why shouldn't CNN stop showing news? :wacko:

meh it's just the same relationship the history channel has to history, the sci-fi... sorry syfy channel has to science fiction and the discovery channel has to anything worth discovering.
TLC to learning. :D
AMC to classic movies. "Catwoman" :rolleyes:
Oh well, at least Al-Jazeera is actually on The Island. :menace:

I did see the preview. :D
Hmm, I like CNN. I've been surprised that it gets so few viewers. It seems the more middle ground between Fox and MSNBC. But I guess it could work, add different type shows to go along with their news broadcasts. We don't need 24/7 news when there's nothing new to report. Gets tiring seeing some of the stuff that the stations put on. But I probably won't watch reality type shows on CNN, as I watch for the news.
CNN ain't great but I agree with KRonn mostly - at least they are trying long after the others have given up. So it's sad to see they are giving up as well, and going in a direction that appears even less edifying than what MSNBC or Fox are doing.
We still have C-SPAN :)
Actually I just saw C-SPAN has its archives online and I found when my mother was on it - with her perm!
What the heck was she on for?
As pharma discussing advances to protect hospital workers from AIDS.
I just showed my mother the video of herself (1988) and she was dying. She was also amazed how skinny she was given that she'd just recently given birth to her second child. :D
