Twitter Backlash Over CNN And MSNBC Talking Heads: STFU
- Jon Graef, Twitter users tell CNN anchors to STFU during health care summit
Here’s but a sampling of the discontent that as arisen on Twitter with CNN (note: if these are your handles, and you don’t want it to appear here, send us a DM @CNCollegenews):
@thisisrobthomas: cnn speaking about the health care summit like they’re watching football. hey people, this is not a fucking game. people are dying.
@attila: The spin by the talking heads responding to the Presidential Health Care Summit is totally ruining the moment. Just STFU @CNN
@JamesCHarwood: I flipped over to FOX News because CNN and MSNBC are going to their own talking heads instead of showing the Health Care Summit.
@bondcliff: Watch Health Care Summit on Cspan. CNN, MSNBC and others breaking in with “Scores” every few minutes. They can’t help themselves.
@meatnbread: CNN, why you gotta keep showing this when you break from the Health Care Summit?
@thegriff: Watching the Health Care Summit on Fox News because CNN and MSNBC have chosen to break it up with commercials and commentary. #fail
@DinaMeis Health Care Summit : MEDIA channels need to STOP getting into Commentary & Commericals !!! I want to watch this - @cnn @msnbc
@thegriff: Call CNN and ask them to stop interrupting the Health Care Summit! 404-827-2600, option 2 then option 3.
They can’t help it: after all, they are talking heads, and talking heads talk. Even when we want them to STFU.
