Zennie62 Bill Gates Question On Newspapers On CNN TV Today

I asked Microsoft Founder Bill Gates this question which was selected to be used in Wolf Blitzer's inteview with Gates on CNN's The Situation Room  today: The Huffington Post, a website, was valued at $100 million, more than many newspapers. What should newspapers do to survive in the 21st Century?

What do you think? What should newspapers do? 


This is the iReport version: Zennie62 on CNN 

The Situation Room, Wolf Blitzer and The CNN iReport

This is my video based on an email I received from Nicole Saidi, CNN.com's Senior Assistant Producer, requesting a video on my thoughts on how iReport was used on The Situation Room's Mike Hukabee segment.  

Palin Doesn't Get That We're In Economic Trouble

I just watched CNN's Drew Griffin's interview with Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and I've got to briefly share that she doesn't get the economic problem we're in.

On the matter of the Bailout plan and our financial problems, Palin fears that it would be used as a reason to "spend" and to have "big government" and that the "private sector" would be forgotten.

Man.

Memo to Governor Palin: it was the private sector that created the problem we're in.

Geez.

Zennie's CNN Question For Senator John McCain On Urban Policy

I don't know if it will be used on the Situation Room, but I'd like to know if McCain really has a National Urban Policy. He's said nothing about cities at all.

Question For Senator McCain on Black Relatives - For The Situation Room on CNN

Monday, October 20th edition of the South Florida Times reports that your Black relatives have an event called "The Coming Home Reunion" and that each member of your family has attended, including your brother Joe, except you.

In 2000 you claimed that your family did not own slaves; in the article your Black relatives dispute this. Is that why you don't attend the event, and can you shed light on this matter?

Thank you and thanks for your service to our country.

CNN's Wolf Blizer Not Showing McCain "Miss Buffalo Chip" Comment

I'm watching CNN's the Situation Room, and Wolf Blitzer's showing John McCain's speech before the Sturgis Biker event, but not the part where he offers his wife as a contestant in the "Miss Buffalo Chip" contest. That's the real news and they're covering for John McCain. That's totally wrong!
