I just got a breaking news email from CNN stating that:

CNN confirms Sen. Barack Obama has chosen Delaware Sen. Joe Biden to be his vice-presidential running mate.


Nothing on their site yet other than that damn red banner.

On a side note ... where's my fucking text message, Barack?

It is from ABC indirectly. Good reporting in that a secret service detail was seen by reporters deploying around Biden.

While it seems ridiculously unlikely I'm kind of hoping he's managed to fool the entire media and secretly picked someone else.

Bonus points if Biden is in on it.

This is why I hate mainstream media. They're reporting on a report by another news outlet that secret service have been dispatched to Biden's location.

Hmmmm ... I just refreshed the CNN page to see if they updated with an article of any kind, and the red banner is gone with no mention of the Biden deal.

Did CNN jump the gun here?

Weird that they have it on their main page but not on their politics page.

Also, total dick move, CNN. I wanted to be surprised by my text tomorrow while running errands, and start yelling out the VP pick's name in the middle of the grocery store or something.

I had a plan.
