The State of Television News
Real journalists must be mortified about the slide of broadcast news into tabloidism. Clearly, Fox News adopting the voice of conservatism is only a ratings choice designed to give a news corporation a distinctive brand. How sad.
Of course, I'm still aghast over Katie Couric's "some would say" interview with the Edwards. And she is paid how much money to produce the dreck she turns out?
When will journalists reclaim their turf and blast these ceos who hire female journalists as if they are judges at a beauty pageant? What happened to the standards of the fourth estate? Why aren't more professionals embarassed about the trivialization of their industry?
