Gossip Casters


Can anyone else relate to this? Is anyone tired of Brangelina making the "news"? I think that local news can sometimes be the worst as they often "report" about "news" from the east or west coasts. Everything negative from court room dramas to all sorts of bad behaviors seem to make the 5pm, 6pm and 10pm broadcasts - sometimes for days. Even the sports news seems to get into the extracurricular activities of football players. Maybe they just need to fill the empty air? They do seem to have a lot of it.

  1. Local news shows in the NYC metro area cover the most recent murders, rapes, kidnappings and political coruption. On the weekend they toss in a few fundraisers. I don't like it but it is the news.

  2. Our local news is generally pretty good about this, but occasionally they still throw in tabloid fodder. Either they find that's what many people want, or they think it is.

    I'm NOT one of them.

  3. I stopped watching local news when kynzie was born. I couldn't stand the stories of crime that take up the first 10 minutes. If I happen upon it, I quickly remember why I stopped watching.

  4. How interesting the timing of you post. Yesterday I joined my grandson and his 3rd grade class to KABC TV Eye Witness News Studio, in Glendale, CA. It was really interesting, but I agree, the news is so not news most of the time.

    Check out my blog.... I posted some cool pictures from the trip.

  5. I know what you mean - why do we need to hear the sordid details of someone's marital problems? They have magazines for that, and plenty of websites for up the the minute stories, why put it on the NEWS?
