When CNN first went on the air Ted Turner declared that it would broadcast nonstop until the end of the world. He meant that LITERALLY. There was a tape made before it signed on that is "on hold" and scheduled for official broadcast "when the end of the world is confirmed". Here it is, it was leaked a few years ago.

Would be the mother of all gigglefits if CNN went down long before the Apocalypse.

I have a college acquaintance who was in the initial group of CNN staffers. Like Ted Turner he’s an incredible leftard blowhard, unable to hold rational discussions or consider competing sources of information. The idea of those kinds of people controlling our news is terrifying.
