When I turn on the morning news shows, why am I getting entertainment instead of news?? I know, I know, it's all about money; but why is no one complaining?
No one mentions that our president and his cohorts are trying to get us embroiled in a war with Iran; no one does anything but a cursory look at the candidates for president; no one seems too concerned that Katrina victims are still being victimized; no one is doing any follow up on the sorry state of this nation's bridges; and so on.
Instead, we get to hear about Britney Spears and various other obnoxious stars and lots of other coma-inducing fluff pieces that would bore almost anyone to death.
Even the evening news is turning into one giant commercial with a couple of Charles Gibson moments sprinkled in.
Is this really the best we can do? Or worse, is this really all that we want from our news shows??
Consider this my official complaint.
