The trolls at CNN are HOPING Ivan is The Big One

[Bake]

You can tell by the way they are talking about it - they HOPE this is The Big One, with a lot of fatalities. Hoping for the BIG storm surge. That'll be good headlines.

Morbid sonsabitches.

1. right . They can tell us how they are on the job

and taking risks to bring us all the up to the minute breaking news
as thousands are left homless and dozens are killed.

Useless parasites all of them.

2. CNN who?

never heard of them. Is it a garage band?

3. Anything to take the public's mind off the issues. Hell, they'll

report on car wrecks before anything substantive.

5. If it bleeds it LEADS!

I guess that's just the news business. But it seems pretty damn morbid to me.

4. I would suggest to the fundamentalists who support Bush

That God is punishing Florida for they way it got Bush into office in 2000.

6. I stopped watching cable news because of things like that

My local news, which imho reports actual news w/o much spin if any has been doing a very good job covering the war and cutting through the bs. they have also been covering this storm and the other ones with actual concern.
