CNN whutT

I'm watching cnn right now and i'm thinking wtf?. they had this guy from the us military talking about new technology that will help them fight a ground war in a city (baghdad). he is comparing the technology to what people might have seen in the movie 'black hawk down'. wtf, i find it highly disturbing that the us finds war so triveal that they compare it to a motion picture?
now the cnn chickie says " NOW WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE PREPERATIONS BEING MADE RIGHT NOW!!" like holy fuck they treat the coverage of a possible war the way they would if it was a story about the upcoming Acadamy Awards show or sumting..
withbehind the scenes looks and everything!..
no matter what your position on whether the war is correct or not
, it's just not entertainment and the fact that they present it as such explains the level of violence within America.

if sum of this doesn't make sense give me a break its 10 30 am and i haven't slept yet...
peace

In America its all about "Fear". There fuckin president loves to play with guns and his army are his toys.

Go and watch "Bowling for Columbine" and it brings up many interesting facts about the USA and its gun laws.

You're right. Even before September 11th that's been the way CNN and other dumb mainstream American media gets people to watch the news - convince everyone the sky is falling.

Fuck CNN!

I don't even bother watching CNN. It's boring.
I'd rather listen to Art Bell or watch some good online headlines about weed on www.pottv.net or some other site like that or just talk about stuff on this board and other cool boards.

Wolf Blittzer and all the other CNN wackos need to just relax in the studio on camera; drink some beer, smoke some weed, start laughing a little, and realize that a lot of the stuff they've been saying is just paranoia. Maybe after they get high, they can actually acknowledge the fact that there is actually some news that has nothing to do with September 11th or the war, or being a drug free crybaby.
