CNN sells out


What do you think of a guy who calls the grieving father of a young man whose living, screaming head was sawed from his body by Iraqis a “scumbag” simply because the man was grieving? I know, they don’t make adequate words, or if they do, they’re known only to those in the field of demonology or abnormal psychology.

Of course abnormal psychology includes the study of American Conservative Values and those values include those of CNN’s Headline News who according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution are planning to add Glenn Beck to their stable of jackasses. Beck is the one who called Nick Berg’s father a scumbag, who says he hates the families of the 9/11 victims, who says publicly he wants to kill Michael Moore with his bare hands and who told someone who claims to have tortured prisoners he appreciated his having done so.

Jim Walton, president of CNN News Group, said Headline News’ goal is to continue luring an audience that is different from those who watch sister network CNN.

Maybe we could just bring back the Roman Circus where you can watch people having their heads cut off and their guts ripped out, or maybe bring back the burning of heretics – or maybe you could just dig up their graves and have a bonfire with Jefferson and Franklin and Washington and roast marshmallows over the ashes of America. Why not just worship the Devil openly? That would be different. That would boost ratings. That would lure some different viewers.

Thanks Liberal Media. Thanks for your dedicated public service, you stinking, traitorous, criminal bastards.

The lowest common denominator has to include the lowest life forms.

CNN is a disgrace. These media outlets have decided to give their most ardent viewers, the crazy Faux News types, what they want. It's sickening who is in charge.

Just like the Democrats have become Republicans, CNN is going to become Fox. Sickening. The one-party, one-media 1984 is here.

Who's in charge? An oligarchy of business interests - they're in charge of everything. The Fox isn't guarding the hen house, it owns the farm.
