What, you mean you still expect real news from major news media? Especially TV? Its all just sensationalist drivel designed to boost ratings or sell ad space...

IF has hit the nail on the head. Actual news of importance doesn't make money. That's why the main news channels in the US have sunk to sensationalism and mimicking the "scandal rags" that reside at the checkout lines in our supermarkets...because it/they make money. Given a wad of the population that plops down in front of the TV to watch Jerry Springer or the more refined version of bull----, reality programming (which really ISN'T reality), it's no surprise.
Keep the masses stupid and uneducated and feed them "pablum" and you (translation: the government) can do what you wish.
