But like your wife, I've become habituated to the slot, partly because I associate it with dinner. So I end up enjoying the news as a way of exercising my critical faculties (read hatred of journalism). Diane Sawyer, with her sugary faux apologetics especially feeds my contempt, though I didn't mind her as a morning shill. And have you noticed, CNN has lowered itself considerably also, in the past year, thanks in part to that insufferable, unshut-upable toadie, Wolf Blitzer. The sad fact is that, even though I read many reputable, in-depth news sources, I still hope for a satisfying reality-based TV news experience - sort of like the BBC - as if it were something I deserved, perhaps because I grew up when mentioning tampons and erectile dysfunction on television would have precipitated a riot. Or was news always an advertising gimmick? The web of course makes it easy to ignore the infinitely distracting stupidities of network news. Maybe I'll stick to my philosophy: if it can be said in fewer than 1000 words, it's not news.</p> I was glad to see your comments about the Evening News, which I find loathesome for the same reasons you do.
