None.
I don't have cable.

CBS, NBC, FOX, ABC, UPN, WB... Nothing (I'm in NYC)

Thankfully I get my news right here at DU.

How are soap opera's more important?

2. I thought the same thing
with 9/11 we didn't have regular programing.

I've actually told some people at a store I was at how bad it was and they acted like I was over reacting (here in my blue state). ALL EYES SHOULD BE ON THIS!!!!!!

3. It's a sad day when the cable channels are more responsible than the
major networks.

It's a shame it took something like this to get them to cover some real news (though Nancy Grace did do a segment on the spoiled brat in Aruba last night).

Even Fox has been less nauseating than they usually are.

Take it easy. I only said less nauseating. I am watching CNN now.

4. They are trying not toscare the Soldiers in Iraq.
I think that's an okay idea, but they do need to plan to let them know for real what is going on over here.

It will PISSSS the soldiers off that they can't come back and help.

Unhappy soldiers in a bad place . . . . ?
