This iReport is part of an assignment:
Are You The Biggest CNN Fan? |
The CNN t-shirt that I want
Here is the CNN t-shirt that I want ! Actually quoted from the iReport assignment: "Are You The Biggest CNN Fan?" article on iReport.com:
"With more than 300,000 people on Facebook claiming to be CNN fans, we are dying ..."
This amusing quote pokes fun at the recent CNN ratings slump. Where are all these hundreds of thousuands of Facebook CNN Fans when CNN needs them the most? Are these 300,000 Facebook CNN Fans watching CNN? Or are they on Facebook?
It has to be one or the other, not both. Since CNN is rewarding them, by having popular CNN anchors air them while they are on Facebook ... It's a safe bet, that is where they are. On Facebook, promoted by the anchors, which unfortunately does not count towards Nielsen Ratings Raising Revenues for CNN.
The fact is that CNNfan.com is now about to reach a milestone of 2,000 days of CNN fandom on the internet. CNNfan.com is older than Facebook, older than Twitter, and a USAToday report suggests it may be older than MySpace as a social network. (MySpace began as an online storage site). For years, with a much, much smaller fanbase of real CNNfans... CNN used to battle for first place.
