I imagine CNN employees have great medical insurance and this will go away if this monstrosity passes. They are waking up to this fact. This is probably why they are railing against it. I’m looking for the other network employees to wake up and do the same.
All Obama has to do is slow down and that will be one criticism off the news. Then he and Congress can throw in some amendments that look as though they’re addressing page 16, etc., ramp it back up and push it through. CNN will proudly report that Obama and Congress took a more deliberative approach and voila, all the liberals are happy.
“Never Again”!! (Didn’t some other folks also say that??) Right.
CNN is afraid that Larry King won’t be able to get his daily goat spleen injections under Obamacare.
Hammering it in a good way or in a bad way?
Katie Couric, Matt Lauer, Charlie Gibson, Diane Sawyer, Barbara Walters, et al, all over the age of 50. Yes they are millionaires, but if they have no physician to treat them, they too will be forced to go every five years to die.
Given control of the remote I never opt to watch CNN. But, today I had to sit in a hospital waiting room while a family member had a procedure she knows she won’t get under Obamacare because she’s 80 years old already. Of course, the hospital prefers CNN. I was amazed that they weren’t doing their usual whatever-the-Big-Zero-says-is-the-gospel-truth routine as they waited for him to whine about DeMint’s attack on his plan. I’m not sure what caused it, it’s undoubtedly just temporary insanity on their part, and they’ll be back to towing the party line tomorrow when the error of their ways has been explained to them by someone from the White House. It certainly wasn’t enough to make me consider watching them voluntarily!
What’s CNN?
It’s the reality of the marketplace. Not only is the economy tanking BUT BUSINESS ISN’T BUYING AIR TIME FROM THE SOCIALIST NETWORKS!!!
Only Fox is growing both their top and bottom lines. Also, I’ve personally watched a change in advertiser mix on Fox News. They are now picking up BOATLOADS of premium advertisers that just one year ago would only advertise on CNN.
They remembered that ONN was the Onion News Network and they are the Clinton News Network.. and Obamacare don’t help Hillary.
They can’t stand on their ideology forever before the house of cards they built collapses. Advertisers see Fox as the prime location to air their commercials, and unless CNN changes their direction—in a drastic way—they were doomed to bleak future.
Yawn
What’s CNN’s problem? Isn’t the plan radical enough for them?
