Have no interest at all in the girl who went missing in Aruba, Jennifer Willbanks, Wacko Jacko, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie........half these talking heads on FOX NEWS, CNN, MSNBC and all the rest really don't seem to have a clue as to what they're talking about, and the newscasters these days are even worse. So obvious that they're just reading without understanding any of it in the slightest.

Local news has always been a joke, but is even more so now. With such groundbreaking stories like Aunt Tilly and her runaway dog and the neighborhood Nutsack Scrubbery being robbed, I can't even be bothered watching local newscasts anymore.

Anyone else feel there's a serious lack of intelligence in what passes for newspeople these days, and that the Fourth Estate needs to reprioritize what they're chosing to focus on? Or is it just that most people don't really give a toss about hard news anymore, and just like to be entertained rather than informed?
