  2. Wow, so cable news has finally descended to the point where they now mainly use a guy surfing the web to report the latest trending topics on twitter. So, so regretting not replacing my TV after it died 2 years ago.......not.

  3. Really? Fist-bumping on CNN? Live, even?

  4. Twisted ending with the guy rejoicing with the "creating the universe" phrase that seems to have a sting of Carl Seagan invoking a creator... Carl knew better than that. Hate when they do that.

  5. 1. The depth of the Sagan quote did not seem to enter the consciousness of the host. Perhaps that's explainable by the fact that being on air is quite stressful.

    2. Using TV to report what's on the internet? Seriously? Can't I just use... the internet... for that?

  7. Ok... Big scratch sound here*****

    Now i just realized tha these guys are bluntly misquoting Carl in a very nasty way. We all now what is the difference of saying " you must first create the universe --> smells creationist, instead of he actual quote: "you must first invent the universe" that has a totally different connotation...

    Deceiptful , disgusting... A shame..
