CNN is a sell out.

Hiya Mysti - that first sentence has meaning to me [img]smile.gif[/img] .

I wondered at Ray's earlier post that dissed the Washington Post, and from the lack of detail in the comments I got the vibe that it must be some sort of "leftist rag" for him to be complaining of spin.

It is well known that he is a proponent of the John Emburey style over the Shane Warne variety .

Personally, I am a big favourite of the flipper - or as it is otherwise known, the "Cullinan"

You realize, that I have absolutely no idea who these people are...right?
As for the Post, seeing as how I see it every single day, I have been able all by my poor widdle lonesome to come to the conclusion that it is a very left/liberal publication. I don't believe I ever classified it as a rag, and I do think that they cover the sports quite well.

I have had my homepage set to cnn.com since then (1994). Well, I am actually thinking of CHANGING. in nearly 10 years. Reason? Well, in the past few Months, CNN's site has gone to large pop up/pop under ads. And I hate those with a passion. I just don't know any other news site to use... [img]smile.gif[/img] USAToday is slag, MSNBC is full of graphics, and Drudge usually spins the news too much. Any Ideas? Maybe the Reuters news service? Or Asscociated Press site?

why, I get all my news from:

www.wsws.org

(I'm also looking forward to when http://english.aljazeera.net/ Is up)

Not only are the manifold injustices highlighted enough to whip you up into a righteous lather before breakfast, (the point of all news of course)
but also It features Marxist materialist analysis of crucial issues, and not even the socialist parties are safe from their steely eyed gaze OF DOOOOOOOOM.
Truly, No man could ask for more.

Except perhaps for some Rye bread, a basin of milk and a brave new world.

Well that certainly explains a lot....but should really come as no great surprise.

I .. uh ... thought you was a republican Attalus - what are you doing jumping to the left

*with dignity* I am a Republican. I merely sample left-wing programs from time to time to get some idea what The Other Side is up to. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
