CNN that's some hard hitting news

More crack investigative journalism from the most trusted leader in news.

Seriously the old media really has a hard case to make to prove that they are still relevant. They dropped the ball on the lead up to Iraq and still use the kid gloves when dealing with the administration and corporate welfare, like the government bail out of the housing market, but waste time and space on fluff. If people weren't dying because they failed to uphold their responsibility I wouldn't be so enraged. They say that primary source reporting would disappear if the old media was brought under by the power of the intertubes, but they are not doing it. All the old media is doing is following celebrities around cogitating about what they are wearing, and who they are fucking. If they expended this level of effort on Capitol Hill the corruption would be rooted out or driven deeper into hiding. But congress continues to misappropriate our money and people continue to die in a never ending war that we were lied into and the smug media just writes off our fully justified outrage.
