Or "Shot Down in Flames."

\side note: wish we were having a thread on Pat Robertson's rant on the shootings. Curious as to what Farkdom thinks of it.

CNN has realized that the only time anyone actually watches is when they make a horrible error of some kind. Expect to see a lot more.

It's called "Working the Ref". The more they crow about liberal bias the more news organizations bend over backwards to appear "balanced", as if objective fact didn't exist, only shades of partisan ideology.

And I'm not sure how making clueless music choices qualifies as liberal bias.

FTFA: After about a six minute discussion, the program cut to a commercial break. Upon return, viewers were greeted with Billy Joel:

Non-story is non-story.

CNN is just loud and dumb. Not quite as dumb as Fox, but still dumb. The webpage is fine, but the channel just missing girls and loud noises.
