Breaking NEWS!

So right now, President Bush is giving a press conference. MSNBC.com, CNN.com, and FOXNEWS.com all have breaking news banners on their websites. All the banners feature an aspect of the press conference. Let us examine the various websites.

Fox News:

"Bush Declares Defeating Islamic Extremists is "Challenge of our Time.'




CNN:

"Withdrawing on an artificial timetable means we lose" in Iraq, President Bush said.




MSNBC:

Bush says speacial panel will take 'fresh look' at Iraq strategy.





Which of the preceding websites is correct in proclaiming breaking news?
Not Fox:

Bush said the "calling of our generation" is the fight between extremism and the "peaceful majority." (9/19/2006)

Not CNN:

"Why would you say to the enemy, 'Here's a timetable. Just go ahead and wait us out?' It doesn't make any sense to have a timetable," president Bush said. "You know, if you give a timetable, you are conceding too much to the enemy. And this is an enemy that will be defeated."

President Bush says the best way to honor the more than 1,700 Americans who have been killed in Iraq is to complete the mission.(6/24/2006)

The only breaking news is that Bush has another special panel to look at Iraq. Interesting that Fox and CNN decided that Bush rehashing old ideas counted as "Breaking News." Perhaps they don't realize that you can't spell "news" without "new."
