When I was on the road, I found myself really annoyed by the Headline News Channel, and if I decided to watch CNN I would find the "real" news CNN channel.
If it was available in whatever hotel I was staying in.
As time went by it got harder and harder to end up in a hotel that had the full CNN.
More often it was the Headline "news" and celebrity channel.
CNN not being available in the car in most places is going to hurt ratings.
That's a huge chunk of day for listeners to be captured by other media.
In the places it IS available in the car, it ends up sounding stupid because it's just TV sound on radio
and obviously a weak effort where a seperate staff to generate top quality radio content is not
worth the bother to CNN.
OK by me CNN, you don't have to give more than half a damn, I don't have
consider you as any kind of meaningful "news" source, either. Fair enough trade.
Not having an OTA signal makes them pretty much invisible to me these days.
Where in the world would I go to see or hear some CNN?
I can only afford to pay for so much for the delivery of advertising content, and even then,
I'm only going to buy one or two sources of advertising content.
For me, that would be the Chicago Tribune and the AT&T internet service.
Not at all interested in paying for any other additional advertising delivery services.
If CNN would like to see their ratings go up, they'd have to pay for that "last mile" by getting an OTA signal in Chicago.
Otherwise they don't even really "exist" as far as I am concerned.
It's been at least 3 years since I have even had any *opportunity* to be exposed to an outlet of CNN.
How would I even know what they are like these days? Or what leaning they might be?
I suppose I could go to a CNN website but that would first need to be some kind of go-to source already.
If I'm going to go online for audio content news I want it to be AP Network news. Which died, thank you very much.
It's getting so I can't even find news content online that is a text-only story. More often it's a video, requiring
about 5 times as much of my time to get the information across.
