Thanks for covering real news for these few moments. I waited through nearly an hour of drivel on all the speculations of this and that about the upcoming elections after the teaser that this would be on and remembered why I can hardly watch CNN or most news stations anymore. You make up stories (like discussing and speculating ad nauseum the pre election New Hampshire polls and how Barack had such a huge and amazing lead)and then make up more stories and speculations to keep them going when your first speculations are wrong (seems the "big comeback" of Hilary was only from your missed poll numbers if you consider less than a week before Iowa you had all been predicting SHE would win in NH...and yet, another week spent on her so called "comeback"). Most recently this week, the issues of "race and gender". I don't hear the politicians talking about this in the sensational way you do, in fact, they request the opposite, but I see you making up the conflict between them and keeping it stoked.

So thanks for remembering in the world real people are dying from real bullets and tear gas cannisters, even while you prattle on about so many things that are mere speculations on your part. (Will or won't Mexico extradite the Marine Killer IF he is found? Who knows until it happens? Just give us the news)

If I weren't waiting for news about Kenya, I would turn you off instantly. and please thank your reporter for her courage in covering real stories. I'm very sorry she was hurt, not only physically but emotionally it is tough, I know. You see, I also grew up in Africa and know how much she loves this place and land of her heritage. Please thank her for her willingness to be an actual news reporter in a touch place that others also care about.
