Cable nets take aim at one another
Newsies go for the gut with criticisms

By MICHAEL LEARMONTH

The gloves have come off.

The cable news wars are getting more personal as Fox News, CNN and MSNBC increasingly take aim at one another, feeding off controversies, real and imagined.

The latest salvo took place Thursday morning when Fox News' "Fox and Friends" crew threw a slap at CNN's "God's Warriors" series.

Two days after calling the series "anti-Semitic," Fox News' morning crew piled on the series, which first aired in August.

"There have been a number of religious organizations who said that CNN absolutely got this story completely wrong," said co-anchor Steve Doocy.

I can no longer watch any of the cable 'news' shows. Perhaps it is just the time of day that I try to tune in but all I hear are the endless and senseless diatribes against the other networks and Entertainment bits.

1. I hear Tony Snow called CNN 'pagan' on O'Reilly.

Pagan!

2. Not For Me - I can't afford cable - right now!

I just may be the lucky one as I suffer from high blood pressure anyway.
