Really?

I have a tendency to keep an eye on things that are happening in the news. At any given time while I am at work there is a pretty good chance that I have a TV near me that is tuned in to CNN.

Earlier this week an Air France jet enroute to Paris from Rio disappeared from radar. I can't fathom the grief that family members and friends of the missing are feeling right now. My thoughts and prayers are with them and the victims.

You may be wondering what motivated me to right this. Well, here's the story.

Today CNN is making a big deal about "new details" in the disappearance of this plane. We know by now that the plane disappeared off of radar. It might have been struck by ligtning, but without the "black boxes" yet recovered theories are pure speculation.

CNN is on the mark in it's reporting. Today they revealed that the plane "either broke apart in mid air or when it hit the water". Really?

I think that CNN does a good job for the most part with news, they must be doing something right since they have been around for decades...but reporting the obvious seems senseless.

What's next..."tonight it will be dark in Mid Michigan?".
