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.
The Koch brothers acting on orders from Daddy Bush and the Illuminati. (sarc)
FACTS! I WANT FA-....I MEAN INNUENDO....I WANT INNUENDO! - Milo (Bloom County)
Who can forget, “They’re eating babies in the Superdome, Geraldo!!!” “And crapping down their throats, Shep!”
Yeah, that.
Nothing is happening, there is no NEWS to report. Speculation is not news, it’s at best infotainment (wow, the dictionary has that word). NOBODY that is actually a NEWS organization should be covering it until the plane is found, the story has been over (pending ACTUAL findings) for almost 2 weeks. But it has been great TV for CNN, it’s helped them sell many eyeballs to advertisers.
Just about anything.
There is nothing new on the plane. If they want to give a five minute update with all the new speculation they would have 4 minutes to spare.
There are a lot of other things happening in the world. At least one of them which is actually going to have an effect on the country as a whole.
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
It won’t last much longer.
Has BOR ever conceded he lost the ratings to another network? It seems every time I see his show he will be bragging about his ratings higher than the other networks combined in prime time. I saw this recently as last week when he was praising himself.
Yeah... But the chicks are hotter on FOX.
So what facts did CNN report light years before Fox? Reporting 500% more of nothing isn’t exactly better.
