Since when do I need to pick up my official CNN gear?
CNN has begun to merchandise news headlines. Yup. This is no joke.
You can now go to CNN and buy a t-shirt with a selected headline from CNN’s news site printed on it, with a tag, “I just saw it on CNN.com”.
Oh, and you’ll be paying $15.
Does CNN think we’re that dumb? Yeah, I’m gonna go buy a $15 billboard. The t-shirts are probably made by slave kids anyway.
It’s beyond the pale. And to top it off, this is a bad precedent for CNN to set. Now, any time I read an interesting headline, I’m gonna be wondering, “Is this just a means to sell a crappy t-shirt?”
Well, I guess if news has to be profitable, this is their best option?
Whatever, TV news is whack anyway. Don’t trust it!
