The 24-hour hype fest known as cable news really controls the media. Glenn Beck, Keith Olbermann, Hot seat, real time, cross fire, liberal bias, conservative bias. I just don't know if I like any of it. Jon Stewart said at his "Rally to Restore Sanity," "If we amplify everything, we hear nothing." Cable news has made members of each party hate each other, and it has us believing that politics is just a never ending war, and we'll all die unless our candidate wins. Personally, I think Glenn Beck an Keith Olbermann are the worst thing to happen to American Politics since voter fraud was invented.  |

Yeah its all bickering and fighting, no real content. Public Media is the way to go. Fox, CNN, and MSNBC all have make money by appealing to people so they can get more ratings. Its all crap.

It isn't all crap. I think the news segments are good, its just the tv programs that stink.

I think it provides a service for people who don't always have a lot of time to dedicate to the news. at the same time, Fox New's highest demographic is old people, so maybe not. /:
