If only CNN would go back to being the old but trusted, amazing CNN, with Christiane Amanpour at the landing in Mogadishu during Restore Hope, or Bernie Shaw at the hotel in Baghdad for Desert Storm.

Oh well. It's been years since I relied on CNN.
But on the technical front, good for them.

It is, without a doubt, highly unreliable a news source, and not something one should be using to base ones world view on ..
