CNN, are you fucking serious?


Ok, forget that the tepid, media-constructed scandal of John Ritter's death is taking the front page yet again. Whatever. CNN is the USA Today of broadcast and online news. This is nothing new.

But "Swooooshes"?

I keep refreshing my browser to see if someone's going to catch it and change it. Nope.

I don't understand. Did Nike pay for it? Seventeen Magazine couldn't get away with this crap. Or maybe I'm just being an old fart. Maybe superfluous onomatopoeia is the new hot trend in professional journalism. Because news should be hip and edgy. Swoooosh.

What's next?
