But...but...but it was the weekend! Breaking news never happens on the weekend, especially in summer when the prime pundits are out of town.
In all seriousness, I don't know why CNN just didn't change its feed to CNN International (which it did the night Princess Diana died) or why C-SPAN didn't provide a long stretch of BBC coverage, as it occasionally does with breaking news if Congress isn't in session.
Who cares?
They’ve proven they’re irrelevant!
