CNN asks this AM whether some politician is "giving us a bad case of TMI."

That means "too much (disagreeable or distasteful) information."
Nearly 100,000 RGs.

Guests on the same show also spoke without explication of "the MSM."  That
means "the mainstream media," i.e., anything  other than the blogosphere and
Fox News, the marketers who popularized the phrase "mainstream media."

"MSM": Three and a half millions RGs.
