Why do I pass on CNN for Election Coverage?
It isn't that I think Wolf Blitzer is an idiot and adds nothing to the coverage or debates (although he still maintains the moniker of MANLIEST name ever). It isn't that Lou Dobbs is a crazy ol' man shaking his cane at people who don't look like classic WASP's. It is because...of their gross and demonically gutteral-metallic (sp?) sounds they play for intro and fades to commercials during election coverage. I seriously think it sounds like a rock band guitarist (solo) playing in a steel plant. I don't think I have heard those sounds except when seeing old footage of highrise steel workers banging those red-hot rivets into their holes. I cannot stand that racket and the volume isn't even loud. I'm 22 and I want my ears lasting past their coverage. If that music is going to be their choice for elections to come, adios CNN!
