Is the news running dry on real stories?
posted December 3, 2006 - 7:12amI'm sure I'm stating the obvious but whoever is filtering the media wire services is doing a real poor job of find newsworthy stories. Is it that dried up that Britney Spears goes out partying with Paris Hilton is the top story of the day? Plus these sub-stories about her with no underwear on? If not that, then more bloodshed news about Iraq. Then the child abduction of the day. Then throw in the latest drive by shooting. The world is a depressing place, isn't it? I wonder if anyone ever tries to present positive stories about someone who helps their community by helping the elderly or cleans the beaches. Do kids do that any more? It seems like every minority they show is either a thug or a drug addict. Who decided this? They always interview the stupidest person they could find in the area for a comment on a shooting or a robbery.
Isn't it time to say something about this? The news is supposed to informing the public about what's going on and not about getting an Emmy for the most ridiculous sounding story to air.
Isn't it time the public cleans up the news programs as much as our restuarants and public parks?

If that Britney story stays
If a xombyte falls in a forest, does it make any noise?
