Should CNN change its name to the Comedy News Network? That seems to be the suggestion of Dilbert cartoon strip creator Scott Adams in his Thursday blog. The reason why Adams now finds it so hilarious to watch CNN is the lengths they go to in order to avoid mentioning Hillary Clinton's name or her troubles.
