More evidence CNN has lost it. . Remember Rick Sanchez?
Edited on Fri Aug-06-04 08:29 AM by Armstead
Remember Rick Sanchez, the right wing young Ted Baxter-like anchor who got canned from MSNBC?

Guess where he's going, according to the Miami Herald?

Think of a once-respected cable news channel that used to be basically centrist and serious in its news coverage, but has fallen into the ranks of sleazy conservative-tinged infotainment.

Yep. CNN.

2. CNN is now taking MSNBC's castoffs
Sanchez was a real shill for the right-wing while on MSNBC.

5. Gee, maybe they'll take Donahue too
Since they're bottom feeding for castoffs, at least you think they might take a liberal one too. But Nooooooo.

4. Another "CNN Time Waster" like Dr. Gupta.
Just my opinion.

CNN wastes more time covering non-news like "How to know if you have a cold" than they do actually reporting the news.

If cable news hairdos just read the crawls, they'd run out of time each hour and people would be much better informed.

6. Noooooo! Well, Might as Well Keep Them All in the Same Bucket
I'm going to have to Search for all the Rick-ridicule items-----the one about how CLUELESS he is, the one about (drunk driving car accident?)-------I fergit, because, silly-me, I thought he was gone for good and we wouldn't need those things again. But then, when Poppy went back to Houston and Kennebunkport, I though we were done with the B.F.E.E., or rather, I was willing to let them go their own way and pile up all the moohlah and mullas they wanted for themselves, so long as they were gone for good--------and look what happened, there came Shrub!!!!
