News...bah...infotainment at best. The rampant tabloidization of the media.
"congratulations you just got dumber"Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

You are correct, sir.
I can barely even watch TV. The "news" and "politcs-related shows" are dispicable, highly unprofessional, tabloid nonsense and all slanted to one side or another. It's been at least two decades since I could bear to watch any channel for more than a few minutes. It's vomit-inducing. Nothing but tabloid, immature, brainwashing, teenage-mentality bullshit. Who's fucking who.......Who's a fag.....who's not a fag....ah, pure childish and ignorant bullshit.
Well, except for hockey. Still watch my New York Rangers.:D
As for regular TV. If there's a show that interests me, I struggle through one TV telecast and if I like it, I wait for the price on the season DVD set, to drop to $20.00 dollars (which usually takes a good two years after that season is completed). Then I buy it and watch the whole season at my leisure ...... Commercial-Free!!!!
Otherwise, screw it.0 -

PBS, Animal Planet, Discovery Channel and the History Channel (although even the History Channel has become a crapshoot as they often spit out pure bullshit). And Hockey:D0 -

only TWO channels i watch on any consistent basis, minus CNN for on the spot news updates.
1. CNBC -- can make you money, but usualy just entertaining to watch them laugh at the market during the day.
2. VH1 Classics -- if its not market hours, its ALWAYS this.If I was to smile and I held out my hand
