There was an ATS thread that pointed to a link that was just great
www.businessinsider.com...
And in it, my favorite part was:
Perhaps, if I may be so bold, this is what happens to you when you continue to report stories that no longer resemble -- even remotely -- what your own viewers see outside their windows and apartments.
CNN has barely covered the rapidly growing Occupy and Tea Party protests around the country, and as the clip from Current TV's Cenk Uygur below points out, CNN gave zero prime-time coverage to the NDAA's indefinite detention provisions, arguably one of the most devastating rollbacks of Americans' civil rights ever.
Perhaps viewers are sick and tired of the same half-assed recycled stories about Kim Kardashian, the same shiny Piers Morgan celebrity interviews, and perhaps a war weary public is also not so quick to slurp up CNN's incoherent Iran warmongering.
In another thread I had going on at another site (an audio site actually, strangely), we talked about what the other hand is doing while all these distractions like Trayvon are going on. And your list, though I don't agree with all of them, is on-point with most.
There is also a resurgence of the SOPA/PIPA stuff coming up, this time with a new name, but the same [stuff] all over again. That is getting ZERO coverage.
