Here’s a letter I wrote to CNN yesterday through a feedback form…

I am astonished you have chosen NOT to continue daily coverage of the testimony of Comey regarding Attorney General Gonzales’ hospital visit to former Attorney General Ashcroft. This is a Watergate level story, why aren’t you investigating it and reporting on it EVERY day?

Instead I get home page links to VITAL stories like:
“What if Lincoln had survived the assassination? ” and
“Stars ‘having a blast’ at Cannes Film Festival”

Part of the press’ responsibilty in a free society is the uncovering of truth, especially when our leaders resist accountability and transparency.

Get to work!

I’ve been reading about the main stream press whining about bloggers effect on the media. Don’t you get it?  Some of us want intelligent analysis of events that shape our society, and more importantly, we want a press that can recognize what a story is!

Britney, Paris, and unexamined pablum dispersed by the Whitehouse does not constitute a news story. Do I really have to get my real news from Comedy Central? Apparently.

The form I’m filling out right now to submit my comments asks:

Do you have a comment on something you’ve seen on CNN.com?

My answer is, well, no. I have a comment about something I haven’t seen on CNN. It’s called news.
