Twitterverse Not Happy with CNN.com

One of the powers of Twitter is to be able to create a trend – good or bad. In the case of CNN.com’s coverage of the aftermath of the Iranian election – it’s been mostly bad.

The hashtag #cnnfail was created by users to Tweet their displeasure with the lack of coverage Saturday. The trending topic continues to be one of the most popular this morning. A sampling:

@gtbell: Never thought it would happen. Where are you CNN?
@ericgrant: Remember when CNN would stay up all night covering wars? Too bad the people of Iran aren’t as important
@angrywhitedude: CNN, why not just pack it in and admit you’re just another pathetic MSNBC with a left wing agenda?
