I don't think it is up to "we the people" to choose the news. Also, I think there is too much "fluff" news lately. I don't want to hear ordinary people's opinions when I turn on the news. I can check out blogs for that, which I don't do because they aren't facts. I wish you would get back to just regular news–not Entertainment Today news and other things that aren't real news. There should be enough real news to report without all the entertainment stuff. Where is Tony Harris? He was really smart and I liked listening to him.

It is in extremely poor taste to make a pun about the New Zealand earthquake–"Grave Fears"... Where is your compassion?
Dirty Air & Heart Attacks
And I agree with Lucy. I don't understand why you have "panels" to give us their views on the supposed news. I can make up my own mind.
Give us some real news. I am sick of the junk news – I don't want to watch CNN to laugh – I want to watch CNN to learn about national and international news.
You should talk about chemtrails "dirty air" and how it is effecting our planet and us!

Hey! "Arrests in Killing of U.S. Agent" definitely beat out "dirty air"! Yet CNN runs the dirty air story as the winner? Why did I even bother if the vote doesn't count?
Ali,
When you were talking to the Aussie at 2:35 PM today, the globe in the background was spinning in the wrong direction.
National security should be of major interest.
Ugandan President May Release Rap Album..hahahahah. he is next to go, he has been on power for longtime
don lemon, the Arrests in Killing of U.S. Agent SHOULD ALREADY be news worth reporting.
Dirty Air & Heart Attacks
Since the oil & gas industry are federally exempted from Clean Air and Water laws
This is important story.
Gas Wells being drilled in record numbers.
Arrests in Killing of U.S. Agent
should be of major concern.
You spend so much time talking about which news to choose. If you would just show all of the news casts instead of talking about which one to choose you would have a lot of air time left over. to show more news
Ugandan president my produce a rap album
I feel compelled to comment on your recent discussion with your medical reporter on the infant dying in a hospital in London Ontario. before you criticize what the hospital is doing i would suggest you should have discussed with the pediatricians in Detroit why they refused to take the child. This medical school at which the child is being treated is on of the best in our country. I am sure that the fell that from a medical ethical perspective it would be wrong to acquiesce to the parents demands to to cause more pain for an already traumatized little patient than he is already going through.
I am also sure that the Mds in Detroit concur.
i hear they want to recall the fab fourteen to oust them out.i say start impeachment on walker for ethics violations and wanting to start riots in WI
Geeze, in the time that they take to present the 3 news snippets several times in the program couldn't they just actually show all three stories. I HATE this kind of gimmickry. I was hopeful that Suzanne Malveaux would bring a bit of actual journalism to CNN, then this gimmick. Arghhh!!!
Ali Velshi you are a champion for the 99ers. President Obama had done his job speech to the nation on t.v. Thursday night. I noticed he ignored the 99ers again. Please keep mentioning the 99ers in your show;until we are finally recognized that we still exist. Thank you Ali ! You are a great journalist.
