I usually watch CNN after my favorite evening news program mainly because 3o minutes of “news” isn’t quite enough for me to get a fix. The content on CNN is even more light weight, but I like to leave it on in the background while I prepare and eat dinner.
There’s been a lot a buildup to the YouTube Democratic debate on CNN. They’ve played the highlights of the questions people have uploaded in their videos to YouTube.com. To be honest, the whole thing didn’t get me that excited and for the most part, just seemed like a big gimmick that would ultimately reduce the debates to a game show. But in recalling presidential debates from campaigns past, that might actually be an improvement entertainment-wise.
