CNN, your daily source of useless News!
Posted by pbaffour on May 15, 2008
If any other media outlet reported on this, I probably wouldn’t waste my time chewing them out. But when CNN publishes a story about someone calling another person “sweetie” (read it here), and attempts to pass it as “serious” news, I begin to wonder what the hell is going on?! With all the catastrophes going on around the world, with all the wars, natural disasters, falling cranes in NYC, police abuse of power, racism, and the ever worsening economic situation of this country, CNN finds the time to go after Barack Obama for calling someone sweety!
Now, I understand that some may find that a little derogatory, and I can accept that– though I don’t think it is. Many people who commented on that article said they had the same habit– and seriously, who hasn’t slipped up and called someone they shouldn’t have honey, hon, babe, sweetie, darling etc. before? My point is, It might not be right, but it happens UNINTENTIONALLY! AND he apologized!
And WHAT in the world is wrong with the people who use this as a basis on whether or not to vote for him?! I thought we had thinking people in this country. If you don’t want to vote for him, base it on his policies damnit, and not on the fact that he called some lady sweetie!
