God that is wordy. My 60 year old millennial attention span can’t handle it. And if you watch CNN you know what is coming. I don’t get worked up over what is said on CNN because I don’t watch CNN. This post spends way more time on a generated controversy than the original 2 hours of program.
The post wasn’t about CNN at all. It was about the media, controversy timeline in general, and how I thought this could have been ended with a simple statement the next morning. I realize it’s long, but that’s why I separated the main section which is a much shorter read.
