Fox has been sleeping, for this story.

I hate CNN, but have been watching them.

Bigtime.

CNN does seem to cover international news better than anyone else but in this case they sound like a reality TV show.

” and its desire to avoid a partisan slant in its punditry, is out in the cold when it comes to firing up the 365-day-a-year news addicts.”

Such bull feces ....

The Zombie Plane theory channel?
Plane full of dead crew and passengers flying south, and south and south until the autopilot finally tries to do a water landing?

I seldom watch BOR, but as channel fliping last night, I kept catching bits of his show. All of them were about CNN coverage of the missing jet. A show about another channel’s coverage. I guess we will now get a “news” channel reporting about FOX coverage of CNN....and so it goes....

I still hold to the theory that the jet flew for a half hour to gain altitude, glided for an hour, over and over, and is in a wheat field in Kansas.

It might be because FOX like CNN is covering this story ad nauseam and FOX viewers are simply turning to other channels that are not going over the same ground over and over and over again.

That channel BTW is not CNN.

Gak!

I wish they would get off this hobby horse. There is other news in the world.

Fox News ... selection of news often consists of taking an item that isn’t that interesting in itself and funnelling it through the outrage of their pundits and panels. If it’s a slow news day, the rage on Fox News or the policy-wonk nerdiness on MSNBC (edit to add: the problem at MSNBC is that they are just too darned smart)

Yup. No bias here.

The story is over now. The plane will never be found. It will join other air legends like DB Cooper.

Blowhard O’Blowhard refused to cover the story till he got beaten in the ratings by CNN and is now covering the story. ROFL. CNN keeps repeating the same themes and is boring. All the CNN experts have an axe to grind.

Some credit should be given to Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and Fox News for giving CNN so much free advertising about how they are covering this story.

A lot of people may be tuning in just to see how nutty they get over there.

Not me, of course.

CNN, with a poor track record hiring pundits and its desire to avoid a partisan slant in its punditry,

Whaaaaaaaaaaat? The Clinton News Network doesn't want to get partisan?

There’s a plane missing? I haven’t watched CNN since FOX started broadcasting.

A couple of nights ago, CNN devoted at least three consecutive hours to the story even though the only fresh news was about the inconclusive Chinese satellite pics.

CNN got off the ground back in the early 1980’s with another aircraft crash story ... Air Florida Flight 90 that went down in the Potomac attempting to take off from Washington National. CNN’s coverage of this story eclipsed the established networks at the time. Giving CNN credibility which up to that point was sketchy.

It is not the missing plane that is important. It is the story they are not reporting on that is important.

Obama must really be in trouble for the media to suck the air out of all other stories to cover this one missing plane story.

I can remember when Bill Clinton was on the ropes with one scandal after another and then the focus changed as there was a plane crash, and for weeks, all the news was on that one plane crash. Rope a dope worked for Clinton. Will it work for Obama.

Of course the reverse is also true. When the left when after Nixon, all three (and there were only three) networks would use the first five or ten minutes of their news program talking about Watergate. This continued until he was ran out of office.

I expect that CNN will cover this story bigtime 24/7 until the death of the battery in the Black Box [orange box FDR] — 15 more days to go.

As they approach the end of the 30 days they will have a countdown clock behind them to add to the drama titled Hours until the Death of the Black Box.

When the 30 days are up the clock will start again titled this time Hours since the Death of the Black Box.

Looks like CNN’s reporter will get to use her row boat again
