Why do the hacks on CNN sound so upset that the Chinese

[malaise]

heard pings and their air force spotted several objects in the general area.
Who fucking cares whether Australia, Malaysia or China finds the aircraft and the bodies of human beings.

Is everything a race about superiority?

Ah fuck CNN! I hope this is a real breakthrough.

1. This is a pretty good graphic of which countries are donating resources

One major change since this was printed is that Great Britain has sent a submarine

2. MH370NN wants to be the one to find the plane through their non-stop, 24/7 support group coverage.

4. You'd better believe it

[backscatter712]

3. It means they're going to have to switch formats...

Instead of the Malaysian Airline Crash channel, they'll have to go back to being a boring news channel, and their ratings will drop.

[malaise]

5. Good spot

That said at least Mary Schiavo called them on it.

[brooklynite]

6. People here are starting to treat CNN like "Morning Joe"...

...They hate the continuing Malaysian Airlines programming...which they watch day after day after day.

7. I pretty much gave up on them

during that whole "fiscal cliff" crisis a while back.

When every fifth sentence contained the phrase "fiscal cliff".


It really got nauseating.

CNN used to be on during the day as sort of background noise (for Mr Pipi...I can deal with silence). Now we turn the radio on instead.

12. I love it! There are 2 threads each day commenting on CNN's race to the bottom. No pun intended...

I look forward each day for the 1 or 2 Joey Scar threads lamenting yet again what an ass he is. Thanks so much for those who watch it because it enables some here to enjoy the high/low lights of each day. Speaking of Mourning Jo, please note that contained in all thread comments about him or his "show" are ALWAYS about 30-40% people here mentioning dead interns, sharp desks or her actual name. This shows me that if this asshole EVERY thinks he should run for public office again he will HAVE to deal with this issue.

Don't we do the same thing for MTP and talking about how bad Stretch is and how Raquel would be so much better... Every week.

These type of threads are more fun for me here on DU than yet another "Obama actually sucks" thread...

8. Theyre upset their "breaking news" would have to cease once they find the plane.

[malaise]

9. What I'll never understand is how the same thing is breaking for

24/7

[darkangel218]

10. LOL!! its CNN.

I stopped taking them seriously a very long time ago. I only watch them if POTUS has a speech or something similar.

[Jefferson23]

11. The guy who was handling NBC entertainment and failed btw...was then hired by CNN.

It is a shame so many people watch it..the ratings did go up...even with all the supernatural,
and the endless BREAKING NEWS that was not breaking news.

I read one critical OP recently where he mentions how CNN adds the world 'special' to the
investigations of the plane. The author asked, special? as opposed to what?

LOL

[malaise]

13. I see Smerconich is now hosting a program on Ft370NN

Same pattern!

[Jefferson23]

14. All jokes aside, CNN is a disgrace..they could care less it appears that they're being

heavily mocked. This is what journalism has been reduced to since the
establishment of the Telecommunications Act...corporate shit for ratings...integrity be damned.

[go west young man]

16. Right on the money.

The Telecommunications Deregulation Act hurt the US incredibly.

[Boom Sound 416]

15. They don't have a camera there, I presume

[malaise]

17. Yep they were quite annoyed that the Chinese had embedded government

journalists with them. Then they were annoyed that the Chinese relayed their finds to their government first (the US would do the same and so would the Australians).

[Boom Sound 416]

18. That's the rub with this whole story.

All of the reporting is just gov't statements.

Their is no way to investigate any of the claims or assertions. Their really are no facts yet.

And if rolls Royce had tossed that little nugget to the WSJ, who knows what the story would be by now.

[oldandhappy]

19. The Chinese want this badly.

They have ?? five ?? ships out there. Anyway, as you said, who cares, and yes, I hope for some resolution.
