I would take a wild guess and say that all of this is a function of the 24-hour news channel, a phenomenon which is more bad than good, in my opinion.

News simply does not happen on demand. News by definition is what is happening, and sometimes a lot of shit happens, and sometimes it doesn't. If you are running a news service 24-7, you have voids to fill.

No wonder the result is fearmongering and tripe.

if i want to hear a topic discussed, i'll watch a few of the Fox shows or Olberman's show on MSNBC... when a big news story breaks, I stick with CNN.

but of course the only reason why i watch Fox is because of their affiliation with the vast right wing conspiracy... which i'm also a part of. we're ruining the world one day at a time.:wink:

Hey, at least you're honest.
