CNN News Staffers Revolt Over Blown Coverage

89. Exactly.

Their format is so short sighted - they are never going to get the rabid Fox viewers and they are never going to be able to compete ratings-wise with the crap they have on right now. What CNN needs to do is make themselves the 'facts only' channel. I'm not saying let one person who says 2+2=4 and the other person who insists 2+2=5 have a go and call it 'even'. That's bullshit lazy crap. No one goes to the game to watch the referee. And people see through it. The viewers that watch CNN are somewhat exponentially more intelligent and sophisticated than your average Fox viewer. They are tired of the false equivalency shit. Do some journalism. Look for hard hitting facts. Don't make it some 30 second little 'keeping them honest' blurb. Make it your whole fucking line up. And don't say, "both sides do it". Tell us how MUCH both sides do it. If the split is 20-80 THAT MATTERS. Report on it! Be journalists for once in your goddamn lives.

shit.
