    BBC World's graphics were much more subdued until about a year ago. Now "breaking news" just about obliterates the video.
     
  2. I miss the thundering tympani and the flag waving of early 2002.

    There's no such thing as CNN. It's all just one big hologram.

    Yeah, I sort of miss the competition between the news channels to make sure we know THEY were AMERICA'S NEW CHANNEL! WE'RE MORE PATRIOTIC THAN THE OTHER GUYS! NO, REALLY! WE LOVE THIS PLACE!

    It works at a bar or with the thing on mute, which here at home, it almost always is.

    CNN can silence the Caffertys for a moment to do an actual news item. It wouldn't be an inconvenience.

    Hysterical and laugh-out-loud funny, 2muchcoffeeman! Loved it!

    Am glad the crawl is gone. Have not watched CNN long enough in the last couple of days to say if I like what they changed graphics to. Will have to give it a closer look.
