Funny, huh? Could CNN and Fox 'News' get any worse? I know that Fox won't learn anything from this, but CNN used to be a real news network.

Of course, this has happened before.

I couldn't believe that, when I heard it! I mean, it was no surprise that Fox got it wrong (they get everything else wrong, don't they?), but I would have thought CNN would be accurate.

I'm glad I didn't hear the false report first - I probably would have been so depressed I'd have avoided the news for the next three days!

Inadequate though it is, the health care act is at least a step in the right direction. It's important to keep it in place long enough to be completely implemented.

Yes, I agree, Gregg. It wasn't the health care reform I would have preferred, but it's a real victory, nonetheless.

And I don't have much first-hand experience with CNN, but I don't think it's the news network it used to be. It's not as bad as Fox, of course, but it seems to have chosen glitz over substance.
