re: CNN Refuses to cover Hurricane Harvey as 12 million in Flood Warning Zone

Should they cover the storm that is affecting one point of the country in which rating might not be the highest or do they cover some other bullshite that will keep people, from all over.. watching?

Apparently your legs aren't the only thing on you that is handicapped.


Are you really, seriously suggesting that potentially the most devastating storm since Katrina, coming unexpectedly and absolutely hammering a major metropolitan area, and potentially reforming and hitting again, is somehow less newsworthy than a presidential pardon only made necessary by an activist judge?

You're really suggesting that some petty partisan bullshite is somehow more newsworthy than a Natural Disaster?

Dude, I am not saying it isn't important. I am basically saying. If they are not covering it, it must not be in their best interest to do so. I am not trying to downplay the storm at all. The more coverage the better. That's more resources getting out information to people, for people who need it. If it isn't covered then people will not realize exactly how bad things have gotten, etc.. But I am speaking from a business standpoint. Why else would they not cover it?

CNN and any other cable network station has one priority and it is ratings

So we had to rely on Fox News and the weather channel for information

This is so much bullshite

If you think some of us - while watching Jeff rope and ride Harvey like a Quintin Tarantino gimp - Weren't tuning into MSM at the same time, you're sadly mistaken. Fox was as much Trump/Pardon as anyone.

Oh for Christ's sake. This is the OT. OweO's statement was patently retarded.

He's not some fragile little fairy. Every day, jokes are made at his, and everyone else's, expense. He doesn't need you to virtue signal for him. It grinds my gears when people assume that just because someone has a disability that they have to be coddled. I'll rag OweO just like I'll rag anyone else on this board. It's called being an equal opportunity offender. You think I don't get the same shite?

Holy shite.

Forgive me if I think some sheriff profiling people is a less grievous matter than people in very real danger for their lives. I've worked down there. Know people down there. Still waiting to hear back from people down there.

What amounts to political bickering should pale in comparison to a VERY newsworthy event that is going to affect massive amounts of people in a very bad way. When Sandy hit I don't remember people concerned about whatever petty thing the politicians were doing.

I remember people sending supplies and crews to work on the damage and crews to feed people thousands of miles away.

People may bicker on the day to day about partisan crap but when something of this magnitude happens, our focus should be on covering our countrymen and helping them through this time of tribulation.

In S. LA we've weathered some bad shite. We've been there.

CNN is fake news. If you still watch CNN you are a first class idiot.

The world will be a better place once CNN and ESPN cease to exist.
