CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.

The amount of views more than any other threads for the "horn meltdown thread" is very telling of our fan base imo.

Honestly can't believe staff doesn't nuke those threads. Our fanbase talks about "obsession" and keeps that thread going still. That thread is the pinnacle of obsession.

I'll tell you what's impressive---- Benfiasco has one that he started, and then one that is pretty much all about him. CNN has been good to you, Ben.

If they nuke that thread they will represent 50% of the page one threads on Premium any given day. Way better to confine it to one thread. They've done the same with a Johnny and a couple of other hot topics over the years.
