CBS lead off story with John Roberts... Michael Jackson. |
|
So I turned it to NBC... At least their lead off story, an airliner whose hijack beeper had gone off erroneously had some value.

WHo needs other news with such an IMPORTANT story at the forefront! I certainly would rather know every dirty gossipy detail about the FABULOUS JACKO than matters of war, peace and prosperity!!

I keep hoping that, if nothing else, the advertisers are going to realize that we aren't watching their commmercials due to lousy news coverage.
I just know that I can't stand the idea of seeing any more coverage about Michael Jackson or any of the other stupid stuff Roberts was going to cover. I mean...who cares?
