News is DEAD!

Ok first off, I was wrong about agreeing with the prez on his social security idea. More on that later today. Right now I HAVE to address this.

Today on the front page of CNN.com was THIS story!

'Runaway bride' forgoes $250 ice bucket

In this article are such investigative reporting bits such as,
"With 600 guests, 14 bridesmaids and 14 groomsmen, a reception at the ritzy Atlanta Athletic Club and a bridal registry that included a $250 Waterford ice bucket, some experts figure the wedding tab would have run into the six figures....

...As for the spoils of ceremony, Wilbanks and Mason were registered at retailers Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Macy's and Target.

According to her bridal registry at Macy's.com, the couple could have expected to receive a 16-inch Lenox 'Solitaire' Oval Platter, which normally sells for $237 but is on sale for $189.99; the Kate Spade "Union Street" line 5-piece place setting ($55), and the KitchenAid Artisan 5-Qt. Stand Mixer (on sale for $249.99).

The unpurchased items on the registry include the All-Clad Stainless steel lasagna pan ($99.98) and Cuisinart Extra Large Electric Skillet ($130)"
What the F*CK!!!!!!??????? Are you kidding me?! Are you KIDDING me!?
"According to the registry at Target.com, Wilbanks and Mason could have expected Pyrex mixing bowls (set of 3) valued at $9.99. Still not purchased for them at the site is the Panasonic cordless electric steam iron, which goes for $59.99."
There is genocide happening in the Sudan. North Korea is testing missiles and has at least 6 nuclear weapons. There is an epidemic of starvation in Africa. We are in national debt up to our eyeballs. This administration has hidden massive amounts of information from the public to protect their asses. They might have outted an undercover CIA agent.

The list goes on. And CNN is INVESTIGATING what god damn items are on this stupid couple's wedding registry!! How much select items are?! What items have yet to be bought?! What the hell is this person thinking? Who wrote this?

"By David Ellis, CNN/Money staff writer"
