And the "news" on Thursday will be...
« on: February 07, 2005, 01:51:26 PM »
This is not a news story, but about the "news".

Yesterday, Sunday, the "news" broadcast told me what the "news" stories would be for each of the upcoming days of the week!  :eek:
So, I want to know, how do they know what the "news" will be for the whole week?  :eek:
Are they clairvoyant?  :?
If they know about it today, why not tell us about the "news" NOW?
If it is not "news", why is it on the "news"?  :roll:
When did the "news" become a weekly magazine, expose, in-depth, dog and pony show instead of the "news"?

And they wonder why their audience shrinks year by year.  8)

his sleep, he doesn't know about it until the next morning?

Shorty,

Don’t forget, they have to have time to prepare their spin.

They have to CREATE news out of a event, you know something we might just read about and go well thats nice they take it and create something that we can all go WOW over, most news isnt news its just something someone else thinks is important and they hope we all agree with them about it and then you get a whole bunch of WOWS. :D    JIM
