Those jokers over at CNN

I've been reading CNN.com pretty consistently for as long as I've been on this here world wide interweb. I like it because it's a good way to quickly find out what the media would consider the top story to be at any given time of the day. (CNN employees call the the top story T-1.)

And I think it's a good example of a very pared down, user friendly design for a news website.

But sometimes the headlines and polls featured are absolutely ludicrous, and would not be out of place in The Onion. Case in point: the poll featured today (before the whole Michael Jackson debacle, which I'm not even going to get into) was:

"Would you change your religion to marry Tom Cruise?"

This is apparently a question of national concern.
