CNN Shows Incompetence Or Bias About Windows 7

Pirillo, Cashmore & Chen

I just watched CNN’s interview with Chris Pirilo (Lockergnome), Pete Cashmore (Mashable) and Brian Chen (Wired) discussing Microsofts latest OS offering, Windows 7.

What a farce. All three of the panelists are Mac users and spoke with about as much passion or authority as a dead aardvark.

At least Pirillo displayed some enthusiasm for being on CNN but Cashmore and Chen came off like they’d rather be anywhere else in the world.

I hate to say it, but either CNN is very anti windows / pro Mac, or who ever did the line up for the panelists is completely incompetent? The entire segment seams to have been thrown together at the last minute and gave the impression of being completely unprepared. Even the woman doing the interview seemed to be surprised that all three were Mac users.

Don’t you deserve better than this from a major news organization?

    Of course this is the same News Organization that fact checked a SNL comedy skit.
