<pre wrap="">>From their FAQ, it looks like you won't be able to. Despite the fact
that they use Flash to deliver the content, they rely on the DRM from
Windows Media 9. So unless you have some way of making
flashplugin-nonfree (see backports.org) use the WMP9 dlls, you won't
be able to do it.

I have followed a myriad of Howtos in which I masquerade as some other browser on some other OS, but it never works out. At some point, I am asked to download "Turner" plugin... I am not sure why CNN is so difficult to use. It seems that they just can't deal with the idea of pluralism. </pre>
