So yesterday, I pass by CNN, and their primary story is about voter apathy. You really need to see the front page when they did that. Here's the screenshot.
The subheading for the story, "Is lack of interest in election the price of gridlock?" But look down just a bit. What's featured just below that? Obama kissed a girl. Woo.
Then look over to the right, and what's live on CNN at that moment? Detailed "analysis" of a "brawl" that took place with the Palin family in attendance at an event. Said "brawl" took place THREE WEEKS ago.
Umm... yeah, CNN, it's all about the gridlock.
FYI, gridlock is certainly part of the problem. This isn't to deny that. This is about CNN looking everywhere but in the mirror when it bemoans voter apathy.
