CNN Might Want to Hold Off On That Wire Service Plan Till They Get Better Editorial Discipline On Their Headlines

Written By mista sense on Wednesday, January 21, 2009 | 7:16 PM






















The Cable Gamer likes to think that she has a good sense of humor, and I sometimes push the edge of the envelope, I think, on headlines. But I am not trying to appeal to a large audience. And I am not starting up a wire service, out to compete with the staid AP.

If I were, I would never use this Kathy Griffin-ish headline: "Obamas Juggle Inaugural Balls." Oh wait! CNN uses Kathy Griffin, and will reportedly have her back next New Year's Eve. So maybe this is all part of CNN's plan to seek out the youth demo.
