IIRC CNN channel access wasnt included -- nm - budice Apr 21, 09:10
They had some tempting story headlines, but I was still never moved to want to pay. PBSNewsHour is free and the best news with least ego. -- nm - Max Apr 21, 09:07
someone here (I think) summed it up perfectly. Having a streaming news service that doesn't stream the news isn't going to succeed -- nm - decline Apr 21, 08:52
I wonder where Audie Cornish lands -- nm - ty97 Apr 21, 08:49
Holy shit, LOL! -- nm - Mop Apr 21, 08:49
Faster than a Quibi -- nm - budice Apr 21, 08:45
Chris Wallace is going to murder someone -- nm - ML Apr 21, 08:45 11
- I'd be surprised if he doesn't get a CNN- show. -- nm* - ty97 Apr 21, 08:48
- His show was the only good one which is nuts. Though he failed to press Cameron on Avatar 2 details like... at all. -- nm - Qale Apr 21, 08:46 3
  - I have a hard time grasping what a colossal misfire this was. I mean, people don't even want to watch CNN for free. -- nm - ML Apr 21, 08:48 2
    - so I was actually the target user for the good version of the service. election night coverage, disaster coverage, etc. but it seems that - amanda Apr 21, 08:54
    - I subbed because of the low price and wanted less talking heads, more harder news. It has that -- mostly. -- nm - Qale Apr 21, 08:54
- Rex back to posting Internet Memes -- nm - budice Apr 21, 08:45 5
  - *stealing other people's content -- nm - ML Apr 21, 08:46 3
    - is retweeting stealing though? I'd never see half the stuff on Twitter I do if not for him as I hate following 100's of accounts - Beaker Apr 21, 08:48 2
      - It's not, but that's not what he does. He's a serial content thief and misinformationist. - ML Apr 21, 08:49 1
        
        I think beaker is right, that the original poster still gets the "views" (most of the time), due to a quirk in video embedding in Twitter -- nm - Beryllium Apr 21, 08:55
  - spoils - he never stopped! -- nm - Beaker Apr 21, 08:46
I cancelled yesterday. How does this fall on the Scaramucci Scale? -- nm - Qale Apr 21, 08:43 3
- 22 days! -- nm - decline Apr 21, 08:50 1
  - I believe that's two Scaramuccis then. Very respectible. -- nm - Qale Apr 21, 08:53
- 3 out of 4 Qwiksters. -- nm - Baruno Apr 21, 08:48
