CNN has failing business plan
I don’t understand why, if your news organization website has an optional function that turns sensationally dumb headlines into T-shirts, this function is unavailable for the most deserving headlines. For example, the current choices for the stylish CNNshirt headlines are: “TV debate dissolves into waterfight”, “Neighbors want to shush singing Santa” and “Soldier can’t afford to leave the Army”. There may be some basement dwellers out there who are inspired to drop $15 on one of these gems, but the part I can’t wrap my mind around is why, especially during this time of economic RECESSION and complete despair, the real money makers are being withheld from the CNNshirt headline pool. I would honestly consider purchasing a “Man says he shot wife during sex” shirt as a nice wardrobe addition for wear at family gatherings or trips to the farmer’s market. Why can’t CNN understand this? The brilliance of the whole ‘let’s put web headlines on a T-shirt idea’ has been dulled by a poor knowledge of their consumer. Hopefully Barack Obama will take care of this.
