CNN's top story

Put me down as the first vote for "plague upon the land". nocoolnamejim

"news" is all relative.

anyone old enough will remember all the networks breaking in on programming to cover the low speed pursuit of OJ Simpson down the LA freeways.xaos

Grrr! I remember watching the Rockets and Knicks in the NBA Finals and then all of a sudden: "We interrupt this broadcast..."

Michael Jackson died??!! Why did I not see anything about this on the news!! FragStains

i have a few friends who live in iran and when Michael jackson passed away-not saying that it MJ's fault or anything-all the attention from the iranian people protesting and wanting freedom went away and when my friends found that no one in the outside world was covering what they were doing they kinda got depressed and lost hope a little since news is a big way to reach many people around the world...so yes i think most times they cover celebrity news a little too much and extreme..

Complete waste of everyones time. I can do perfectly well without ANY of it. Start talking about real issues...

I hate the obsession with celebrities, and anyone who has one.

plz

anything to stop people from talking about what they dreamt about last night, or how the weather is.

I hate the NEWS as much as I hate jamming my toe...Grrr.

When I'm president im gonna bring forth a law that will only let recently dead celebrities 2 days of media time. After that any news covereage will be 500,000 dollar fine per minute.

sometimes, people do stupid things! even the news! :|

It's a plague. Sure, the whole Michael Jackson dying thing was a big hit on the entertainment industry, but the media coverage it got was neither necessary nor deserved. The whole time all the news outlets were going on and on about Jackson day and night I kept thinking to myself: "There has to be more important things going on than this."
