Reading cnn.com will turn your brain to mush.
This is not in-depth reporting. This is not even pertinent information. A list of facts is not a news article, conclusions must be drawn, patterns recognized.
Worse, it is poorly written, and there are no photographs or illustrations. The national news media plays to too wide an audience. Trim down, focus, report on news closer to home. Establish more powerful regional departments.
Headlines. Pertinent facts. Powerful quotes, and stong, engaging photos. Conclusions, condemnations, editorials. This is news.
Bring it back.
