I see 60 Minutes is doing a story tonight about the Earth really being flat

It will be followed by a reports that the Pope is not catholic, water is indeed not wet, and bears DO NOT shit in the woods.

I hope I didn't spoil it for you guys on the West Coast.

He's just turning in his bed, most likely-then getting up now and then to calm his nerves with a couple of shots of Seagram's.

That story, and the discussion about it, is the end of 60 Minutes..
...for good...............that one cost CBS what little integrity it had. (and CBS didn't have much directly before Benghazi BS)

or at least give it another name.

once great shows turned into shit.

we make fun of fox news a lot but at least most people know what they are and they are losing ratings . mostly due to their viewers mostly being older and not being replaced once they die off.

but we still pretend these other things are serious news shows.

and get rid of those sunday morning shows also.

okaawhatever
