Quote:I'm also tired of the packaged, "All the news you need to know", mentality of news directors who spoon feed us the "event du jour" heedless of other more important things happening on the planet.This is the TV new's biggest failing. I can't think of how many times I flip to one station and it's Laci Peterson murder trial, flip to another, it's Kobe Bryant. Give me Iraq, give me Afghanistan, a presidential speech, damn even the weather, BUT GIVE ME SOME REAL NEWS! That's usually the point I decide I've had too much TV. (which is usually after 10 minutes or so :P )
