CNN for Me v1.5.51
— Last update Jul 27, 2007 — Installed 1,749 times.|
Script Summary:
Updated for the new layout. CNN.com is hardly readable as "news", so I got rid of many sections relating to the Pipeline. Also, all headlines that are simply links to videos (no readable content) have their links removed and are italicized. |
this script has 1 topic, 7 posts |
This script has no reviews. |
Update 6/30/07: CNN migrated to the new layout, so had to update to begin removing items by class. See the bottom of the script for that function. More classes can be added manually using the "classes" array (and they will... I just had to get rid of a top bar saying "Hot Topics: Terrorism - Iraq War - iPhone - Paris Hilton"). I hate feeling embarrassed to be reading a news site.
Note: there will probably be minor updates this week as CNN begins to rape their "not Beta anymore" layout. Video links changed, that's been fixed.
-------
You can edit some of the sections if you want, but there are so many extraneous parts of CNN (International and US edition) that I've just arrayed them up.
The video link thing was simply because I was sick of the "sensational" headlines in the "Top Stories" sections. Now I at least know if a "story" is a "story".
CNN still sucks, but this script makes it suck less to me :)
