I thought the purpose of Headline News was to get all the news in 30mins. |
|
So what the frick is a lunkhead like Glen Beck doing on the channel? I swear the guy just offended like 1 billion people from India today on his show - way to go assholes.
If I wanted to watch some lying sack of shit push the Bush Propaganda I'd flip over to Fox and watch Hannity or O'LiesAlot. So what the hell is Headline News - a channel created to give people all the news every 30 minutes doing with this idiot?

2. Actually I rarely watch cable news |
|
I happened to hit the wrong key on my remote and ended up on Headline News. It was like a trainwreck: You know it would be bloody gore but you have to look anyways

3. They gave that up long ago. |
|
Anything important is buried in the crawl. The latest predictions for "American Idol" and the news about Tom Cruise and Brittany Spears takes up 7 minutes of the half hour.
It's especially bad in the AM. It's like some juvenile version of "Good Morning America". Earlier this week, they actually played a voicemail from the sports announcer's wife on the air. She had called to tell him she loves him.
The world is on fire, but you wouldn't know it from watching CNN.
Now with Glen Beck and Nancy Grace and Showbiz Tonight, it's totally useless.

4. If they gave all the news in thirty minutes like they did back |
|
when Ted Turner owned CNN, they would have to give the real news. That can't happen in Soviet Amerika now can it?
