While hundreds have died in a subway fire in South Korea, tens have died in floods in Pakistan, and war is looming in Iraq, it is good to see that CNN can report the news that matters...

I turned on the TV this morning before I left for work and switched on CNN Headline News. What I was treated to during all of the 20 minutes that I watched it was live footage, from New Jersey, of two men in a rowing boat, trying to save a dog that was trapped on some ice in the middle of a lake. Accompanying this was helpful commentary from the two newsroom reporters, just so the viewer won't get confused over what is happening. From what I can figure, there must've been a CNN helicopter on site since all of the footage seemed to be from far above.

WTF is wrong with your country. If this bullsh1t can make the national news then you have serious problems both in the fact that people obviously watch this sh1t, and the media thinks it is important.
