5. They should go back to actually coveriung the news

It used to be that you could get the major news stories of the day every half hour on CNN and the headlines every fifteen minutes on HLN. Now there are many hours on both channels where there is no news coverage at all, just programming of various types.

There is no place on cable TV to reliably get any real news coverage. I end up coming here to DU to get the top headlines!

6. FOX has at least five former CNN personalities.

maybe they should get them back.

Faux.
