CNN.com has issues.

skreidleOnce again, CNN.com has significantly decreased the usefulness of their front page. Where there used to be 4-5 headlines in each major category, including Fringe News, they first cut it to 3 in each category and booted Fringe; this time, it's down to:
- Half a dozen top stories
- World: 3 stories
- U.S. (3)
Featured Sections (2, currently):
- Space (3)
- Entertainment (3)
And then, Section Highlights. One headline each from Politics, Law, Sci-Tech, Health, Travel, Education, and Career.
Oh, and a few items shown for Sports and Time.com.
I want to get a good overview of the news by reading the main page, and checking only the articles that interest me--I don't want to have to visit each section just in case there are interesting articles hidden inside.
(Yes, of course they have a rationale.)
