I just learned that the average age for viewers of CNN, CNN Headline News, FoxNews & MSNBC is 60!!! (I watch CNN & MSNBC) Is that a trip or what? Is everyone under 60 getting news from the Internet? http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117942664?categoryid=1682&cs=1
What lies have you noticed ?. Not a avid fan or anything, but just wondered if you could enlighten me. To be honest, i think all news is slightly innacurate. They hardly ever correct the errors they make. Is that lieing ?.
Actually there's a huge difference between CNN - the american version and CNN International. The American version has far more commercials, obviously focuses much more on American events - they rarely report what goes on in Europe, and they definitely come under more censorship by the US gov't who vets all the major network newstories these days. As far as lies goes, I find CNN to be less biased than most. In fact these days they're the most anti-bush of all the networks I see on American TV. Too bad young ppl don't opt for CNN, or at least CNN online. I found the BEST source for news, imo, is the Guardian, a UK publication.
Best online 'newspaper' in the world : Official. http://media.guardian.co.uk/site/story/0,,1771008,00.html I don't always agree, but they are one of the best sources of news, i have to agree with you.. Funny also, wich is always a plus. Oh and i like the massive picture 'special' they have recently[ish] adopted in the middle of the paper. Awesome .
I like CNN, too. I agree with Skip, it is much less biased than most network news stations. I can't even watch network anymore. Nothing but crap, "scare the shit out of you" "health" pieces and stupid "human interest" stories. I want NEWS! I wouldn't watch Wolf Blitzer (HE should be on FOX.) unless Jack Cafferty was on his show. Jack doesn't take any shit from anybody. Wolf goes where the wind blows. Coward. I am well below 60. I have an other 16 years. How old are you, Skip? If you don't mind. Just wondering. Unless you'd rather not answer. FOX GAG. Can't even leave it on after I watch House on Tuesdays. Ug. Nothing but garbage. Somehow I can't get into MSNBC. I used to watch C Span, but now it's just Senate Commitee hearings. YAWN. I watched when they were grilling Condi Rice (Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha!) But I can't watch most of it, although I probably should, as the stuff that goes on in Congress is live and mostly unedited.
I watch cnn,even if it is mainstream news I enjoy it with the exception of Paula Zahn who bores me.... have watched fox news for laughs a few times. bbc radio, cnn, and internet are my main methods
i dont watch telivision,, except for the occassional pbs program.. no cable for about,,well never here.. no local stations either.. so does that make me extra young???
