The Dismal State of Television News

POOR JUDGEMENT AND BAD BOTOX WILL GET YOU NOWHERE IN MY BOOK 

What the hell is going on in newsrooms around the broadcasting industry?  I am speaking particularly about television news.  There’s no doubt its quality has been declining for some time now (I blame O.J.!)  Local, network, and cable newscasts have all chosen to put their pocketbooks ahead of their integrity (trading credibility for flash and instant gratification.)  It only takes a few minutes of perusing the TV dial to see just how low news organizations have let themselves sink.  Are we supposed to be surprised the cable news channels dedicated over 50 percent of their air-time to covering the Anna Nicole Smith story last Thursday?
