CNN

Ruthlessly borrowed from Theo.


It's pretty sad when an entire network is defined as a place people go to hear what they want to hear and nothing else. One could say the same about any of the cable or broadcast networks these days but CNN was the most blatant of the former 'real' news sites. They shed their cred when confronted by Iraq and there is no doubt that they reached other modus vivendi.

Who needs CNN when one has Infogalactic? (And how did I not know about that?)

Seriously though, one must now glean one's news from multiple sources, then see if the stories you read or heard turn out to be actual truth. It's despicable.

I've been doing it for years now but I do remember back in the 80's when I used to think that the wire services reuters, ap, etc had a product that was worth reading because they retained their credibility. Not now.
