Breaking News?
I clicked by Msnbc and I saw a Breaking News chiron, but it was about the Duke Lacross case. Anything that doesn't involve the BFEE can wait. I don't need to hear about it right away. :grr:

1. Randi Rhodes did a great job of saying just that on Paula Zahn
She shut down the discussion of the Duke rape case and got them onto other things. It's ridiculous what passes for "news" these days.

BTW, :hi: Welcome to DU (and I love your username!).

6. No, I'm not
But it's frustrating to see BREAKING NEWS and see that it isn't national news. I'm sure it is important to somebody, but I don't think it is something a news channel that covers the entire country should be doing.

4. Natalee Holloway is the only thing that matters
Anything that takes attention away from finding her is a public distraction.
