CNN is STILL at it (Can you believe this crap?!)

Still fawning over Ted Kennedy, that is. Actually, I think we passed the "fawning" stage a few days ago - this has been going on 24/7 for the last 5 days straight - and have moved to the "cult of personality" stage.

How much coverage did Ronald Reagan get when he passed? A 1-hour special? At least he actually WAS a US President (and never killed someone)!!

Is this network acting on Ted Turner's direct orders to implement wall-to-wall coverage? Just makes no sense.

Anyone care to predict what day (or`week) this revolting garbage will stop?

And nary a mention of the scandals.

Absolutely sickening!!

Sorry for droning on about this, but we aren't allowed to have FOX News in Canada (too right-wing).

They are trying to keep the taxpayers from thinking about the healthcare fiasco.

CNN won’t bash Obama. They’ll put on crap like the Democrat whores they are.

Just be glad that Teddy did not die the same day Michael Jackson did.

It’s available via Shaw in BC. Telus and Star Choice have it as an option as well. I would prefer the crap on CNN over the CBC.

Why are you even watching CNN??? Just turn them off.
Everyone already knows what CNN and PMSNBC are.

I don’t mind CNN doing round the clock Teddy because I don’t watch them anyway. My objection is when FoxNews does it. Fortunately, that seems to be over now though.

Ratings must be so bad, that all of them at the ‘drive-by media’ are entertaining “thanatos”,....so get them one of those pamphelets from Veterans Affairs “Your Life, Your Choice”...maybe some leftist media suicide would be a relief for the suffereing audience.

They should just dig up Teddy’s corpse and give it an anchor job. They couldn’t do any worse. And, after a few months, MSNBC might try to buy out its “contract”.

Ted Kennedy was a coward who let a woman die because he feared for his political viability. He spent his entire political life trying to appear to care about people by taking money from those who worked to give it to those who did not.

He made sure that his own wealth was protected.

He was a horrible human being. Orrin Hatch thought he was a great guy.

One expects CNN to over-do its coverage of anything Democrat, but there was absolutely NO excuse for Fox to be just as stupid. Other than watching Glenn Beck’s excellent shows on BO’s communist “czars” last week, I haven’t had Fox on. Their ratings for the last four days should be in the tank.

they’re forcing viewers to go to foxnews as long as these network keep up with 24/7 coverage of kennedy, michael jackson and other boring news

Liberalism is a religion. CNN will talk about Ted Kennedy about the same amount of time that Christians have been talking about Jesus.

I can't believe people watch CNN, and then complain about it.

It's just a show man...An orchestrated production for the easily led.

Don't take it seriously.

It's a virus but easily curable. One push on the remote and it's gone!
