    CNN lies . . . or so says all the newspaper vending machines in SF and the chairs in my school.

        I used to watch CNN until it turned into the All OJ Network back in the day, and then I was totaly turned off after that butched Vietnam special they had some years ago.

        MSNBC never has news when I turn it on... always some national geographic program. Though I watch Imus when I can.

        Fox News sits well with me (I'll admit now that Patti Ann Brown = ). I like the G Block at the end of the Fox Report with Shepoooooooo!

        The three network news I lost faith in, because:

        A: I already know what happened on Fox.
        B: When I do catch it, I wonder if they are reporting the same thing, since they tend to remove some very important pieces of information... particulary ABC.
        I drink to one other, and may that other be he, to drink to another, and may that other be me!

          Although the 7 10th grades actually affect me more than a political crisis in Angola.

              At 9 it's news, at 10 it's history.

              Otherwise, CNN Headline News usually.

              ACK!
              Fox news at nine? Here it's at ten, and all the others are at eleven. So, I guess they're all history.

                  bbc, cnnasia, foxnews, google, msnbc/newsweek, slashdot, and nytimes

                      Is CNN still trying to prove that the Shuttle was shot down by terrorists?

                        No, just that it was going 19 times the speed of light.

                          MSNBC is unwatchable. There are always too many long, Dateline style specials about lost kids and other tear-jerkers. Imus and that other chick are unwatchable. Donahue, for all his accomplishments, is like watching someones Grandpa host a political talkshow. Only that this grandpa is senile. MSNBC is like CNN meets the Lifetime Network. The only programs remotely watchable are Buchanan and Press and Hardball (Although he could fall under CNBC). I also can give grudging respect to Nachman, although I'm not sure if he's been canceled. The interviews I saw were inciteful and thoughtful.

                          CNN Headline News, although nice for soundbites delivered in rapid fashion, is too visually cluttered for my tastes. They also tend to rerun the same bad filler over and over again. Their saving grace is cute overnight anchors.

                          CNN is middling. I appreciate the work that they put into Crossfire, although I'm biased because they film it on campus. Connie Chung is too much fluff, although I enjoy watching Wolf Blitzer and Aaron Brown to a limited degree.

                          I enjoy watching Fox because it's got better pacing and more engaging programming. The anchors look like they enjoy working there. There's a bit of personality and charm to them. The night lineup, O'Reilly, Hannity and Colmes (sp?) and On the Record with Greta Van Sustern frankly beats CNN's lineup. Yeah, it's less hard news, but certainly more watchable. It caters to personalities and thrives on qucik "soundbite politics".
                          If you look around and think everyone else is an *******, you're the *******.

                            There's two possibilities here:

                            CNN and Naked News... And since I don't want to pay to get the news, I don't watch Naked News... so CNN it is...
                            This space is empty... or is it?

                              The other day Kyra Phillips was wearing some black leather, Mrs Emma Peel-type outfit so I watched CNN.

                                I expose myself to as much news as possible. I watch as much as I can, I read as much as I can. It's interesting to do this because you can tell who's spinning the news more than others. And when everyone reports the exact same thing, you can tell when they are being fed a story. One thing though, there isn't one consistent objective news source.
                                To us, it is the BEAST.
