CNN, like most other MSM outfits have been sacrificing reporters, foreign correspondents in favor of pundits (aka political operatives), fancy gizmos (verging on a reenactment of Star Wars) and fluff. The canceling of their science journalism department is just the latest decision that underscores the decay of private-sponsored journalism in this country. Is it the MSM's fault or does it say something about the whims and wishes of the general public?
Sad. PZ says it best.

Hi,
I was just wondering if you could do some in depth posts on what we know about the origin of the genetic code and/or the origin of life. There's a lot of sites out there that have drastically overimplified explanations of these things, but I'd be interested in seeing something deeper.
Just a suggestion,
Ryan
