I've no idea how long it's been there, but I just noticed the new clickable t-shirt icons next to some of their top headlines...so that you can get CNN headlines on a t-shirt for $20 ish.

I hate advertising type t-shirts anyway, but it seems particularly out of place for a news agency.

This moment of thought brought to you by Nexa...who doesn't want to work today.

Yeah, but this isn't a news agency. It qualifies as the sort of business that I wouldn't be surprised to have selling t-shirst or whatever. It's just weird to think of having a "I read about the stock exchange on MSNBC!" t-shirt or a "You can find the latest about Parliment on BBCNEWS!"

That did remind me that I meant to get an Asylum t-shirt.
