News in America

TV networks devote the same amount of time to world news as to entertainment news. And sometimes the news overlaps.

If you are a pleasant to look at celebrity, you must be smart.

To be a network news reporter you must now have abs, pecs and a shirt with the first couple of buttons unbuttoned.

All you need to know about an issue can be condensed into a sound bite.

News anchors can't decide whether to sit down or stand up to read the news.

Too much in depth reporting on important issues can easily kill ratings.

All the terrible news can be balanced by one uplifting pet or kid story.
