The coverage of the Bhutto funeral on

BBC versus MSNBC is like eating MCFood versus a seven course home cooked dinner. Money and hype do not necessarily mean quality

1. CNN Just Replaying The Same Crap

Typical of them...light on any real substance or content so they just replay the same superfiscial stories over and over.

BBCAmerica has some Wine Tasting program on...their news doesn't come on here for another hour.

with several people.

Sixteen people have been killed in the area including three policemen.

4. Well MSNBC has several people on whom don't seem to have clue WTF they are talking about

The entire discussion seems to be centered around "but what about the United States?"

8. I don't get why he is considered an expert on anything. All he can

offer is "shoot 'em up" talk about "the bad guys."

7. Oh well if its Paris or Britney or Jamie Lynn we got to cover that for weeks

I also believe we have more subject matter experts available for that type of coverage.
