Agreed. For that matter, all the other 24/7 "newz" networks are infotainment channels too. A little bit of news mixed with a whole shitpot full of opinion, exaggerations and what many people call bullshit. FNC caters to the far Right and MSNBC caters to the far Left. CNN caters to old people.Yeah CNN international does what a news organization is suppose to do, report the news as it happens. CNN America is an entertainment channe.
I pointed out to my wife one time how you can tell the targeted demographics of a show by it's commercials. Watch MTV and it's all about toys and video games. CNN is Depends, Cialis and Tums. The marketing can change a bit depending on the time slot, but overall, that's who watches CNN; old farts like me. I only watch about 30-60 minutes in the morning, then switch to movies and broadcast tv shows I've DVR'd.
