how long can the cable news channels keep it going? day 4...

[spanone]

no end in sight.

m$nbc practically has their entire cast in Paris

1. Yeah, you're right;

I mean, who cares?

2. It's pretty much a world historical event, even if it's not fair that it's a world historical

event and a slaughter in Kenya is not.

That's the way power works.

3. And to think this is

today's Journalism or lack there of.

4. I watched a little Al Jazeera late Friday and was impressed by their coverage

that was just the facts as they came in, no hysteria, no loaded language. They remind me more and more what network news used to be like before they were all bought out by megacorporations and forced to be infotainment and commentary, not news. I doubt they've improved since I turned them off in 2004.

It doesn't surprise me that they're clinging to this story with a death grip, anything to drum up support for Republican warmongers.

At least if you shut the sound off, the scenery behind the yammering bobbleheads might be interesting.

5. I had to turn off MSNBFOX. Couldn't take anymore bullshit.

6. I watch very little cable news anymore, I watch a little CNN, almost no MSNBC since they

got rid of everyone I like except Rachel and I can't take more than 30 seconds of Fox. I can't stand Chris Mathews and Lawrence O'Donnell is a know it all. I watch NBC evening news
most days. They will be stuck on Paris until another story comes up. One story at a time is all they can cover today.
There aren't any more Walter Cronkites.

7. Have you turned them off yet? (nt)

[winstars]

8. The OP says "cast" when referring to MSNBC. And quite correctly. Guess the borders aren't closed

Its "EBOLA IS GONNA KILL YA" all over again...
