CNN's Best Interest
The largest environmental submit this planet has ever seen is taking place. Why is it then, that CNN’s website appears ignorant to these events? I’m there right now. At the top of the page, below the CNN logo, I am given an array of genres to peruse, among them, ‘Video’, ‘Politics’, ‘Entertainment’, ‘Travel’ and ‘Opinion’. I continue down the page. In the center, a loud story concerning the future of Harry and Ron’s impersonators slaps me in the face: “Stars Face Life after ‘Harry Potter’.” To the right of this breaking news: an advertisement showcasing the latest in camera technology. On the opposite side of Harry and Ron, a CNN iReport: “Blizzards in the Midwest.” I could go on, but I won’t. If CNN doesn’t think it’s in its best interest to include in its three most spectacular stories the history that is taking place, whose interest do they have in mind?
