Very interesting facts about our beloved Congress

Instead of Fox news, you all should watch ABC Nightly News with Dianne Sawyer. All they talk about is the Michael Jackson doctor trial (don' t care), the new IPhone (yesterday, before Mr Jobs died), and airbrushing Audrey Hephburn. I emailed them and asked what channel the news was on, it would be interesting to know what is going on in the world. So stay with ABC, and these other topics will be Greek to you, too.

This decline in the quality of news on television began when news shows became subject to ratings. Prior to that time, news shows were regarded as a public service that television stations provided, with competition based on integrity and peer awards. Once they started vying for ratings, incentives to increase ratings (at the expense of quality of news provided) became the new motivation. Another excellent example of why profit isn't the proper motivation for EVERYTHING.
