Weekend Make Due

Professional news people must get really, really lazy on the weekends — especially Sunday mornings where apparently nothing at all has happened worldwide in the past 12 hours.
Home page of CNN is exactly the same as at 7 o’clock last night, same with the HuffPost with its GOP headline illustrated with elephants, and although the New York Times moved around some of its shit, the whole mash is still the same.

Obviously, the news doesn’t turn until 7 a.m. update

What a drag for news junkies if the weekend is slow on posting shit — life doesn’t stop for two days.
