The pope's death Saturday came within days of the death of Terri Schiavo, which cable news also covered minute-by-minute.
"That's what cable news viewers expect, CNN chief Jon Klein says. "Big events like this tend to generate a very passionate and intense audience. People who have a very high interest in what's going on turn to cable for a breaking news story that's happening in real time and especially one that has a rich, emotional component."
