Octobers Yellow Journalism 2

Ohh the pain, Will Robinson, the pain...the pain

In something I thought would be a simple 5 day exercise to review the so called morning news shows has turned into a month plus nightmare. The need for the fake news shows to span 2 hours of so called "information" just seems too reveal how little they know about what news is.

Its not even infotainment as much as it is Bullshit-er-tainment.

Here are my notes

08-28-2006
7.5 hours of fake news less then 5 minutes on the war in Iraq.
In a 2 hour morning show the only news you might see is a brief nation spot once an hour for about 2 or 3 minutes.

After a few days of watching morning television there is not much difference between the During Katie Morning news and the post Katie news.

CBS -
Had always been the old peoples network. Harry Smith one of the last few hosts that used to do real news that are left in the morning slot, is just another talking head reads poorly edited copy.

NBC -
THE PrEDAToR NETWORK.
ARNOT GETS 1 OR 2 SEGMENTS EVERY TIME HIS INTERNET PERvert SHOW IS ON.
So when the Foley story broke they gave Jessica Simpson more time and took the word of a known liar as fact.
09-07-2006 Nbc Saturday does 3 segments special on pedophiles, all about teachers nothing about congressmen.

ABC - DisneyFied News Network
09-11-2006

09-12-2006
