CNN is beating this LA Freeway SWAT Action to death.

[maveric]

Anything to avert attention from the real news that they dont show.

Like a SWAT action in Los Angeles is news?

1. Argh! stay away from CNN it is ng..n/t

[meegbear]

2. Fortunately, many of us here are spared that ...

because he don't have a clue about what you're talking about.

3. A kidnapping suspect barricaded in his van on the I-710.

The SWAT team has had him surrounded for hours and CNN is only airing this activity.

5. Good article in the New Yorker about 2/3 weeks back

about frequency of car chases and the history of them being televised and the fact that there are so many more car chases in LA then in NY or DC or any other large city for that fact.

4. Huh?

I live in LA and haven't heard anything. But then again...SWAT action in LA is hardly newsworthy.

There must be some big Bush story that CNN's avoiding. ;)

6. I live in LA and havent heard anything either.

Although that must explain why highway 60 was a parking lot this morning.

7. Put on CNN Headline News.

Its been on for several hours now.
SWAT action in LA is NOT news!

8. Keep watching.

I have it on good advisement that the Great White Shark will be along shortly, ridden by a missing blonde woman, to eat everyone at the scene.
