Rick Sanchez Praises Twitter, Gregg Doyel Calls It "Dumb"

Rick Sanchez responds to Jon Stewart insisting that networks like CNN are becoming lazy in relying too much on Twitter. "Social media has made me a better journalist," he says. Gregg Doyle also weighs in on the discussion, calling the technology "the dumbification of America" and "the pet rock of the 21st century".

CNN is almost as retarded as Twitter.

[manmagicdamn]

Continue to listen to CNN and their mindless bs.

The protests in Iran grew because of multiple reasons. Social media was only one of these reasons, and if not twitter, than people did/would have gotten updates from facebook, which is much better than twitter. Frankly the main reason the protests grew was because people were communicating with one another on their rooftops at night. Twitter is just an excuse for "journalists" like Sanchez to cut corners.

rick"the dirty" sanzhez asks "what is wrong with connecting to people?"

the answer: nothing. absolutely nothing

however there might be a problem with posting these "connections" on a news channel

that problem being that it is irrelevant, stupid and a waste of time

All the people that bash twitter they do because they have no friends that care about their twitts that's why they are so bitter LOL

[beerswagger2007]

[TriforcePlayer2]

more proof of the liberal bastardization of the news

[planetcave]

Not only have been forced to accept misinformation as news, now we have to accept stories about newscasters and adverts about twitter as news. I think we have to conclude at some point that we're not getting the real news.
