History

When Homer and Barney go on the Duff Brewery tour their guide is briefly perplexed since he assumed everybody there must know of the widespread "rumors" about a batch of Duff Beer was contaminated with strychnine and it was even on CNN last night yet everybody in the tour group was totally ignorant of it.[1]

After Lisa Simpson succeeded in having Bleeding Gums Murphy's music broadcast across Springfield, she saw Murphy appear in the clouds above the city. As he thanked her for preserving his musical legacy, he was unexpectedly joined by cloud-like appearances of Mufasa, Darth Vader, and James Earl Jones identifying himself with the phrase "This is CNN."[2]

One of on-scene commentators for the Democratic Party presidential primary debate held at Springfield Elementary School was Andrea Crowley of CNN.[3]

When Kent Brockman went to New York City, he decided to go to FOX News rather than MSNBC and CNN.

Bart goes to Kent Brockman's home seeking advice on becoming a great anchor on Kidz Newz so he can show up his sister, Brockman agrees since he is also resentful of his own sister, CNN's Washington correspondent.[4]

Homer got to Kwik-E-Kart too late during the Hurricane Barbara looting[5] and only got a bag of ice which CNN aired for a week.[6]

One of the reason Homer gives to Marge on how come he will not quit using cannabis is he can make CNN funnier.[7]
