Flipping 'round the channels and saw, for a brief second, that CNN Headline News has hired Lindsay from Real World Seattle to do entertainment news or commentary or something. Does CNN have any credibility left? How low can they go? Lindsay may have some talent- who knows- but everyone who sees her on tv knows she's from the "Real World" (well most people anyways) and whatever her journalistic abilities are, she's always going to be Lindsay from the "Real World." And I'm sure CNN hired her because she's really good. Has nothing to do with all the changes they've been making lately and all the attempts to be hip and edgy.

And speaking of news channels, what's up with MSNBC? Almost every international story is being done now with that annoying video phone so that every image is all blurry. They keep on saying that they're doing it because they can do shots that they couldn't do before with regular cameras, but considering the incredible amount of footage that has been shot by news channels over the past twenty years or so, I somehow doubt it. It's like someone who gets a new toy and has to use it for everything just because it's all shiny and new and it's something their neighbors don't have yet. And for some reason, we're supposed to go "wow, I'm gonna watch MSNBC because they're using a video phone. They're way more cutting edge than CNN. All CNN has is that hot chick Paula Zahn and the girl whose brother commited suicide on the Real World."
