1. Yeah, that's what we were just saying here too! They do this nonstop, then the

history, then the future, then the rapture ones can start their spewing. Frankly, I blame it on the gays!

[Le Taz Hot]

2. Ain't it the truth?

Flat out knocked the shit out of the Libya story.

3. a welcome relief

from the 9/11 stuff which was beginning last week, and I was dreading three weeks of it.

4. Pretty damned funny...

Wolf Blitzkrieg's rabid rants have gone up another octave. He sounds almost too scared to tell people not to panic.

5. Look around: so did DU.

We complain about the media yet it seems we fall right into their crap.

(I have been guilty of this too in the past; I'm just pointing it out.)

6. God forbid they report on something here at home. The horror, the horror! nt

8. We really do need to take a time out from the rest of the world for awhile

and stop sticking our nose in other countries business.

7. The people covering the Libya situation needed a break

One of the guys they had on CNN earlier had not had any sleep for over 24 hours. The woman traveling with the rebels who invaded the Ghaddfi compound was putting herself and her camera people in danger. I think she was so tired that when the people here in the US suggested stuff, she was not able to form any objections. She's been going pretty non-stop for at least two days.

It was also getting late in Libya - last night they covered it far after most of the rebel soldiers had gone to sleep. I think this earthquake gave the talking heads in NY and DC an excuse to break away from Libya and talk about squirrels.

9. It's been what? less than 2 hours? And people complain that it's covered too long?

what?

10. They need to be covering real news

like Libya. The quake is over nothing was damaged. but they refuse to STFU.
