CNN: so Wrong, but so Funny.... ("depressed?")
OK. just so ya know, CNN is ALL TSUNAMI ALL THE TIME like everyone else but, OMG, the lengths they went to...

so, Malveaux is interviewing some twit about ALL THE HORRIBLE DISEASES that people are likely to get.

and, at the end, Malveaux says something to the effect of:

well, this is down the road but, will there be psychological issues for these people?

and, the twit says:

we can expect them to be depressed. even for years to come.

depressed.

ya think twit?!? ya think they're going to be DEPRESSED? THANKS! now that Susan Sontage is DEAD, I'll just give you a call when I want an INFORMED OPINION. depressed! never gave that a thought....:nuke::grr:

1. It is amazing what passes for news
They should just have Miss Cleo get up there and do the news. As it stands right now she's got more credibility than CNN.

3. You are soooo right!
I have tuned out on CNN. When I gaze at the news, it's usually MSNBC, but they're almost as bad. I keep hoping that we can change MSNBC into a better news outlet. Well, COME ON, I can hope, can't I?

5. They have to get all the
blood and gore out of the tsunami. Unless there is a lot of it they will not report anything. Except they don't report the blood and gore going on in Iraq. They will use every drop of water from the tsunami.

6. that's for sure! already...
we've seen payloaders dumping bodies into mass graves.

8. I get depressed just watching snippets of the news on that disaster
it's just overwhelming; those poor people. I feel so freaking helpless; I sent a 100 dollar check to Doctors Without Borders but outside of that I'm not sure what else to do. I want to do something!
