The Emmys held their 44th annual News & Documentary awards this week in New York City. The Emmys set aside these awards to recognize excellence in news coverage. Which is what makes the list of nominees for the Emmy Awards so interesting.

We react to CNN being nominated for ten Emmys...and winning several categories. We discuss Wolf Blitzer winning the Lifetime Achievement Award...and Anderson Cooper winning a couple of Emmy awards. We question the list of nominees...while also questioning why the Emmys are recognizing the failure of CNN. We also analyze recent CNN ratings...and explain how CNN once again set record low ratings in primetime.
