Re: CNN UK
I guess trying to play it straight is not working for CNN anywhere.
Do they still run those we're number 1 ads? I don't know how they can when there not even in the top 30 for ALL of cable. I almost feel bad for them

Julie Banderas coverage of Fort Hood and the health care vote was the most watched news programming on Saturday cable. Congrats, Jules!

If I can I want to address reddits "chrisboy" here.
Number 1: I HAVE NOT POSTED AT REDDIT.
Number 2: I will NEVER EVER go after some ones family, NO MATTER how much we disagree or hate each other. I think its despicable and I won't go that low.
Number 3: I have a idea of who "chrisboy" is at reddit and I know that its not Patrick or john t. The names "AAP" and "MLP" come to mind thay went after me at newshounds

Hello everyone. Your help is required.
Has the war on Christmas officially started yet? If not....what's the official start date.
I'm going to e-mail Bill with an urgent warning over this years war. I've heard via a number of e-mails that big companies maybe going to play Bill like a tambourine this festive session. I don't want to say any names but the idea is to come up with a suitably silly holiday rule....generate some outrage and BINGO the Factor picks up on it....FREE advertising for at least a week...all going well.
This can't be aloud to happen. Please help me warn Bill before this operation is put into action.

I agree, Cheggers. It can't be "aloud." So folks, let's write this one down... so we can avoid it being "aloud."
Oy vey.

Re: "Comcast kicking Zucker upstairs?": Unbelievable. Wait, no, I believe it. When disenfranchised people want change at a company or sports franchise, not only does it not come, but the bad guys are promoted. The Mets come to mind.
Note: Comcast cable channels include their news and sports channels. Besides the regional CSNs, there's also SNY. I know this is crazy, but the last thing I'd want to see is Katy Tur anchoring "Geico SportsNite" or taking over for [a fired] Kevin Burkhardt as field/clubhouse reporter for Mets games. God forbid all that.
