Breaking News! Breaking news... isn't breaking news anymore.

Aren't you sick of going to CNN only to see "BREAKING NEWS" every time you wake up in the morning? Right now, the "Breaking News" headline is:

BREAKING NEWS: MALAYSIA AIRLINES FLIGHT 370
Is this one different?
What about all the other objects?
Planes sent to a new search zone 680 miles away saw lots of objects -- and raised many questions. FULL STORY


These speculation stories have been dominating news media for weeks now. "Breaking news" is so cliché now. It's only a matter of time before media outlets use a different phrase to capture truly breaking news, because until that happens, everyone just looks away knowing that breaking news isn't breaking news anymore...

Yea, I'm sick of that.

Same thing with the weather channel. I guarantee you that on any given day (even a sunny, clear one), they will have some red warning text about something.

I gave up on that story by day three. The news media is a joke.
