They look like the Bloomberg news. They have shrunk Wolfe into a small corner and there is a scroll across the bottom with news about the environment,etc. And there is a map on the right side with temperatures of different cities...And there is a travel schedule for different airports..and Wolfe is talking to someone about some trivial matter like Iraq...I think?

1. Hahahaha! Why do we even need human news readers....
They should change to computer images. No more paychecks. CNN should spend more on investigations. Less commerials...

3. It's just for the holiday travel rush
It will probably be gone by tomorrow. I agree, it's too cluttered and ultimately too annoying. But if CNN thinks it's doing a public service...

5. Yeah, it feels more like what Headline News was a few years ago
They tried a similar screen format for a while and switched back because it was crap.
