I think CNN.com needs to rethink it's priorities

#1 Post by christie1111 » Mon Sep 15, 2008 11:12 am

They have OJ as the lead on their front page.

Considering what is happening at Merrill Lynch, et al, I would think there would be more important subjects.

That's the most recent news. Nothing new with the other stories.

I wonder how long it will take the jury to deliberate his case.

If he goes to jail for this, he won't be able to find his wife's killer.

It should take a while. It's a complex case.
