Is CNN showing Iraq War Protests? NO, it's a 2003 CNN Presents...
...and the other cable "news" channels are doing about the same. Man, this really pisses me off. :mad:


Whatever It Takes: Pursuing The Perfect 10





Youth sports is a multi-million dollar industry modeled after professional sports, and like professional athletes, children are expected to perform under pressure, play with injuries, and sacrifice family time for tournaments far from home.

CNN's Carol Lin examines the high-pressure world of today's youth sports by looking at young female gymnasts hoping to make it to the Olympics in "Whatever It Takes: Pursuing The Perfect 10."

1. Good God, not THIS piece AGAIN!
They're obviously trying to set a record for how many times they can air this piece of crap.

Maybe there's a "1000th Post" kind of thing happening in TV-land ...

3. Yes, they did.
The program before that had a guest that was a blogger invited to go to Iraq and report what is really happening out there. He was blaming the media for inaccuracies. Another one of those "the media shows only the bad things and not the good things in Iraq".
