"Comedian Gilbert Gottfried fired as voice of Aflac duck" - that's the
lead item on the CNN ticker on my home page.



Well, it's good to know that CNN keeps things in perspective!

1. They have to fill the Not-reporting-on-Wisconsin hole
with something. A goose wins every time.

4. and did you see why he was fired?
He was fired for tweeting jokes about Japan. Asshole. It's a relevant story.

5. Oh come on.
It's the ticker, for gosh sakes.

Quit acting like they haven't been spending all weekend on the Earthquake issues.

6. I always thought he was hilarious but
it was just dumb to tweet jokes about the Japan tsunami. What did he think would happen.
