People don't want to think. They prefer to go with like minded individuals and groupthink which is easier, hence Fox's popularity. There was a time when it was fashionable to figure it out yourself but that went the way of Martha Stewart. While I get all of my news from the Naked News (.com) network I believe what was best about CNN was Lou Dobbs. At least you knew where he stood and if you liked that you would tune into it. It's just as easy to filter out the one-sidedness of news as to get something generic and make your own opinions.
- jackmoore 17y agoCNN is the perfect home for nonthinking individuals. They are in full-blown groupthink constantly reaching out to the bloggers and twitter and the guy on the street and begging the viewer for their emails/tweets/input. I know I've personally stopped watching CNN exactly because I desire news, not uninformed opinion.
