| BBC seems to have been the "network of choice" in the disaster. |

Daryn Kagan :puke: and her sourpuss look said it all as she "phone-interviewed" (and interrupted) some people in Thailand.. It cracked me up when at least 2 of the people she interviewed said.."...we turned on the BBC immediately..."...
In past years they would have said.."we turned on CNN..".:):)
When I heard about the quake, CNN only did "updates", and of course returned immediately to their "canned re-run crap". It must be disheartening to be told in a live interview that people don't think of your "ALL NEWS 24/7" network is not relevant anymore :)

CNNI is doing a good job covering this. They are a huge improvement over the domestic CNN.

| 3. CNN international is always better. |

CNN in the US feels that it needs to whore it up to compete with Fox.
