I can assure you that some people at CNN do know about FIRST. I went on a nice tour with one of the producers of a highly rated CNN show last year and we discussed it in her office for awhile so they do know.

Your tour guide was probably an intern. I love the interns, trust me many of my friends are and have been interns at CNN in both Atlanta and DC, but they know almost nothing about what is going on outside of their hectic schedules, I wouldn't trust them when it comes to knowledge of programming.

Just because CNN isn't "featuring" a story that doesn't mean that they aren't going to talk a little about FIRST, it just means that most of their programming is going to be on the election. Since elections are once every 4 years they can always cover FIRST next year!

Don't do anything to drastic without finding out whats really going on... I doubt they will ignore FIRST entirely.
