So we all agree that the media cover of this was wasteful.

Peace among Apolytoners is still possible!

I was watching CNN today, and some reporters were talking about some kind of condition about the president's knees.
You are watching a 24 hour news channel, they must fill that space with something news-like.

More proof that CNN sucks.

Boycott it, it's nothing but an entertainment channels for the proles who want to fool themselves into believing that they know anything about the state of the world.

Because the 2-Thread limit is a long-standing rule in the OT that you violated. Don't worry, I copy-pasted it onto my harddrive, so at least I won't forget. Thanks, good article.

As Imran said, the health of the President of the United States is news...period. Whether it's heart surgery or a boil on his ass.

Why get so bent out of shape over it?

As if news reports of the presidents health is something that just started.

I remember news reports of what Bill Clinton ate when he went to various stops across the country. And how his voracious apetite was one of his traits.

Maybe i'll do a search to see if there were threads complaining about that.

Anyway, when the President of the most powerful country in the world has any medical procedure, large or small, it is news plain and simple.

----------------- CONTEST OPEN ------------------------

Let's all find the best CNN headline for when Bush has been gone to the crapper!

I think a simple yet subtle headline full of suspense would sound good. Like a "Will HE come back?" headline
