Baja/LA 7.2 Quake; MSNBC runs canned 'Trapped' program and FNC sticks with Huckabee

If, god forbid, major news breaks on a holiday, don't rely on the cable news networks to offer up any real-time coverage, because, apparently, that's NOT their game.

Well, maybe CNN is the exception.

While the 7.2 earthquake that hit northern Mexico, and was felt heavily in LA, San Diego, and parts of Arizona, (a BIG one and a BIG story) only CNN went to continuous coverage, with anchor, Don Lemon, providing up-to-the-minute interviews, eyewitness cell-phone video and detailed info.

Meanwhile, MSNBC had a canned program, "Trapped" and only ran an innocuous crawl at the bottom of the screen. At 4: 58 PST, almost an hour AFTER the initial report broke, MSNBC finally acknowledged the temblor with a live anchor.

Over at Fox News, the cabler went with canned in-house programming and a repeat "Huccabee" episode. Anchor Harris Faulkner piped in with "live" shot of video footage over Disneyland, but quickly went back to the Huccabee show.

And the over-the-air networks? Nada.

And how was your Easter?
