Wake me when we're all blasted to kingdom come, willya? I just hope they have QAF on feed.
Dies. I used to watch CNN, but I got so sick of the talking heads that I stopped. The talking heads are full of shit and don't contribute one iota of sense to the conversation. They always use the same ones regardless of whether or not the person is qualified to talk about a particular nuance of an issue and and it's just completely fucked up. For instance, if anything happens in the black community, they always draw for the same person to represent all blacks perspectives. If god-forbid, they talk about feminism, it the same person. IF it's foreign affairs, its the same person. And I've gotten so sick of the overly dramatic tone of voice that is imparted to every news item, I swear that everyone has now learned a certain drawl that drives me goddamn nuts! And wall-to-wall coverage of the stupidest things... Paris Hilton, Anna Nicole... Because of advertisers, we now have infotainment, not news.
