It makes me sick to watch the news any more. Its filled with so much bull****, pandering sensationalism, and out right manufactured news that it shouldn't even be called news any more. You have the Pervert of the day segement, they said he said segment, spindoctor segment, point the finger segment, and so on.... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
It never [censored] ends!
They hyped the weather last night saying it was going to snow heavily today... they toyed with us keeping us on long enought to lie to us. It did not snow, not so much as one flake today.. and do you know what those SOB's said? They said that they were correct, that their forecasts was spot on.... WTF???? All you have to do is pull up the video from last night to know they are lying through their god damned teeth!
If they will lie about what they said when they are wrong, imagine what else our news organizations will lie about.
I say line them all up against a wall and execute them. Tell us the truth or die.

You must have some baaaad newscasters. I like watching the news here; though mostly for the people. They have some people who obviously like their job, get along with each other and provide a lot of humor throughout the news. Especially the sportscaster. Really funny guy.
On the other hand, most of the actual 'news' is pure dross. Every other story is about how "Avian Flu" is gonna wipe us all out (yeah, right...) or about the evils of the so-called Global Warming, which I believe is also a load of bull****e. After all, it's only sitting at -21C right now
You know what would make the news better? A lot more coverage of scientific work, besides medicine which gets a fair bit of coverage. Give us some physics, astrophysics, cosmology, chemistry, neurology. Pretend for just a moment that a few members of the public are actually intelligent enough to see through the drivel and want something more substantive, something that will actually stimulate the mind!
Hey, I can rant!
