Check out the difference in volume between CNN & FOX on the Mt. rescue |

It's a freakin frenzy at FOX. CNN is subdued and informative.
Wild.

20. Anyone else have a hankering for some double black diamond snowboarding? |
|
I know that's not what I should be thinking, but that snow looks so nice!
Did the lost hikers have skis with them?

21. FOX used to be on all over the base pre-election |
