Breaking News

Posted by danleone on November 8th, 2006 filed in blogging, funny, politics

I am a news hound and I pay money to have Breaking News sent to my cellphone “just in case.” Can someone please explain why I needed to pay to find out that Britney Spears is getting divorced? Why do I see this Breaking News scroll along the bottom of the screen on CNN…on the same day that Americans are voting in important elections across the nation?

    Don’t you just love pop culture? Thank god the election is over though; I don’t think I could take another one of those campaign ads.

    Hear, hear. I agree that no one should be exposed to such “news.” Here’s another interesting tidbit for you:

    Apparently, Iran is now a nuclear power according to an Israeli news site. However, such statements are conspicuously missing from msnbc, cnn, and bbc. Wonder why?
