- duiker101 13y agowow and there is basically nothing about Ukraine... this crazy!
- foz 13y agounfortunately, today, it's all about the clicks.
- waylandsmithers 13y agoFor anyone who didn't catch it, the onion story about Miley at the VMAs: http://www.theonion.com/articles/let-me-explain-why-miley-cyrus-vma-performance-was,33632/ http://www.theonion.com/articles/let-me-explain-why-miley-cy... "by" the managing editor of cnn.com
- Shivetya 13y agoWelcome to Zucker's quest to make CNN relevant.... which apparently means being the online version of the supermarket check out line. The FoxNews site has more important international stories than CNN, I am assuming CNN expecting readers to click the World tab. Out front, between Drudge and Google News I get all the leads I need.
- rtpg 13y agoyou might want to hit something like Huff Post to counter Drudge.
- d23 13y agoI'm not a fan of huffpo, but considering Drudge routinely runs conspiratorial things like "Obama born in Kenya", I would not put them on the same level.
- ceejayoz 13y agoI'd put the Huffpo's publishing vaccine denial advocacy on that level.
- koenigdavidmj 13y agoDrudge serves the same purpose as Twitter. Places like those are bad at specifics but are really good at things like "shit's going down in Boston around the marathon". They're not good at specifics, which is how an unrelated electrical fire at the JFK Library got lumped in with the bombings.
- coldpie 13y agoYou depend on Drudge for facts? Yikes.
- Shivetya 13y agoLeads, not facts. I had not been to CNN or FoxNews websites in months, unless I get pushed there by Google News or Drudge and was surprised at the state of CNN. Yes Drudge is a valid place for links, it all depends on what you are going there for. I go there for links to world news events and the like. To dismiss that site out of hand which so many here do is irrational at best. I learned long ago, many sites have good stories, bad stories, and bait stories.
- frankydp 13y agoI assume you know this but, customizing your google news to filter out all the major outlets will give you a very different news cycle.
