Watching CNN lately? Noticed the crawl is not longer endlessly drifting across the bottom of the screen, giving you information the talking heads aren’t? New York Times reports that CNN is trying to address Attention Deficit Disorder amongst its viewers by having the crawl actually be relevant to what the talking heads are reporting. Might be an interesting new trend. With thanks to Tyler McMurchy.
