CNN.com Free Video

[Rick Tomaschuk]

I complained to CNN that I couldn't view their videos at CNN.com using
Linux but all I received was the standard auto reply below. Maybe if
enough people send complaints we can get their attention. I guess they
are more interested in using 'misery' to sell soap than any social
responsibility.
