The Brit Vid was pulled...

Britney's new song sucks it raw. It is not getting played on the radio at all, and is already a complete flop. Her new CD will also flop. She is so over it's pathetic!

The Sony ad does little for me. It uses the same concept (aside for the bunnies) as an Apple ad from a few years ago. Even the song is the same...

Chicken Noodle News, man. Chicken Noodle News.

Rob is pretty. I wonder if CNN has him bunk with Anderson Cooper in the same room when they both cover hurricanes?

I love Rob. He is so hot in person and he has huge hands. Yummy. He does have a point.

I love Rob Marciano. Anderson better keep his mitts off!
Posted by: Eddie | Oct 5, 2007 4:52:24 PM
Rob's an inconvenient moron. Gore never said it caused Katrina, he said it's caused stronger hurricanes.
Posted by: Mike | Oct 5, 2007 4:58:22 PM
Eddie, you have nothing to worrry about with Anderson. He likes his meat dark.

Since when is Asian considered dark?

First Sanjay Gupta "corrects" Sicko and misses the larger point and now Rob does the same with Truth. My faith in CNN is lost... I think it was the headline a week ago on their web site: "Man bitten after putting snake in mouth" (I'm not kidding) that made me realize the only true press left is NPR.

CNN pimped for iraq. CNN lost me a long time ago. Ted Turner sold it to Time warner a long time ago and it went right right far right wingnut

when will these idjit-head, global-warming deniers get a clue?

The jury will be in when the coastal cities are under water.

Who is Rob Marciano? Is he a scientist? What studies is he talking about?
Posted by: Boobs | Oct 5, 2007 8:16:06 PM
ok, this guy is cute but dumb. now,miguel marguez of abc news is an out, proud, and hot reporter. i would hope HE wouldn't spout nonsense like this f-ckwad.
Posted by: nic | Oct 5, 2007 8:38:48 PM
Marciano is a douche. A CNN weather man says global warming doesn't exist. Wow, now I believe it's not real.
P.S. I am a scientist in this field. Climate change is real.
Posted by: shane | Oct 5, 2007 8:52:54 PM
Marciano is NOT saying that global warming doesn't exist. He is simply saying that you cannot blame hurricanes like Katrina on global warming. Calling him a dumb, douche f-ckwad for making such a logical statement is extremely ignorant. Besides, he's hot as global warming hell.

Rob,
you, the judge, and marciano are the ignorant ones. did you watch the same video?
Posted by: nic | Oct 6, 2007 1:01:57 AM
Those Bravia ads are always brilliant. This latest one is no exception...
Posted by: Robert In WeHo | Oct 6, 2007 2:29:17 AM
"Gimme More" is first-rate dance pop. Even the uber-trashy video has grown on me. In fact, I'm kind of mesmerized by the whole Britney thing right now, and I never used to be a fan.

Lets see who do I believe about global warming? A politician or a weatherman?
Posted by: Vi Agara | Oct 6, 2007 9:37:52 AM
how about climatologists, paleoclimatologists, and scientists, et al, -- the preponderant number of which agree with the global warming phenomenon and the impact human activity has on it. al gore has dedicated a large part of his life and energy educating himself on the subject and consulting with scientific authorities. rob marciano is a pretty-boy weatherman with what, a bachelors degree in meteorology? give me a f-ckin break. he should keep his piehole shut when it comes to spreading and exhibiting his ignorance and just do what he is relatively good at --reading the news and weather.
Posted by: nic | Oct 6, 2007 3:04:57 PM
Think I'm with NIC. I think the claim has been that climate change could result in stronger hurricanes, not that global warming caused Katrina. There is a difference in these two statements.
Rob says the jury is out, and there is no conclusive proof of a connection. That means the theory has not been disproven as well. So his disbelief is voluntary decision making.
In the end, if no one knows, then it remains a possibility.
