I think it is really funny how much overplay the bigger city news has to make things, especially weather, to keep up their ratings. Actually, it is not funny at all, it is more like a bunch of kids walking in a circle saying, "Oh yeah well my dad..." It really is a t.v. drama of it's own, played out each night at 5, 6, and 11.
Just give me the damned news, weather, and sports without the drama or "STORM ALERT", "BREAKING NEWS" or crap like that. Half of the time or more, the talking heads look like morons trying to fill the air time with chatter on a subject they don't even know anything about. Just tell it like it is, and get back to us later. "A plane has crashed in the town of X. We'll return you to your program now, and give you an educated report at 6 or 11, or when the experts tell us what happened."
Well, time to hop off my soap box here. Read some "breaking news" from the www, and drink my morning cup of joe. I leave for Cali tomorrow, and that means leaving Julie behind for all those final details of the wedding I won't be able to help with.
