TV News

 


Has anyone other than your blogger noticed that television news has degenerated into hashing and rehashing the same story over and over and over again. Then once more for the peanut gallery.


They pick up some mildly interesting event ... usually involving Trump until some weeks ago  ... and then comment on it from every angle ... and then comment on their comments ... and why we should care about some stupid tweet that was composed by some B Hollywood has-been under the influence.


Is nothing happening in the rest of the world? Or, perhaps it is because TV news organizations can no longer afford reporters anywhere where they need to communicate by satellite? We viewers are forced to see the world through a microscope and not a telescope.


Why don’t the alphabet networks just make up the international news? They certainly fabricate much of the domestic stuff.


STAND UP FOR REPORTAGE!
