My Best Guess: Hear top news stories from around the globe, as well as in-depth investigative reporting, from the journalistic elite of CNNAccording to Sirius: CNN is the world's most trusted source for round-the-clock coverage of breaking news and home to experienced news and talk authorities like Larry King, Anderson Cooper and Wolf Blitzer. Turn to CNN throughout the day for the latest news from around the world and informed talk throughout the day and night. CNN on SIRIUS is a simulcast of the programming heard on television, so even when you can't watch shows like Wolf Blitzer Reports, Lou Dobbs Tonight and Larry King Live, you can hear them on SIRIUS.
Curt's Rebuttal: Well, isn't that fancy. Okay, they did cover the who "simulcast" thing, which is important, I guess. But I'm just damn tired, and I'll admit...I phoned it in. Besides...how much can you say about "news radio."
Sample Playlist
- CNN Newsroom: On the morning drive, I got to hear how Pakistan is still under martial law; how a Saudi rape victim was sentenced to 200 lashes for being alone with a man she wasn't related to; and a story on the cyclone that hit Bangladesh.
- Anderson Cooper 360: First, I was a little disappointed because this mainly covered the same headlines as I heard in the morning drive. Second, Anderson Cooper wasn't even on (apparently he had a stand-in today). But then a story came on about a Texas man who shot some robbers who were stealinig stuff from the home next door, and that was entertaining radio...especially when they played the 911 call he placed, and the person on the phone told him 13 times or so to absolutely, positively NOT go next door with a shotgun and take matters into his own hands.
Verdict: I really only need one news station flagged, and if nothing more interesting comes down the dial, I'll go back and bookmark this one.
