The Future is Today

The future is today, but I won't hear about it until tomorrow. Where have all the newsmen gone? Looking at the TV Guide, I see 10 channels that could have news . . . and there is no news. The closest thing is Larry King Live and the O'Reilly Factor, neither is strictly news, and neither really interests me. I'm disappointed in CNN, because there are two channels (normal and headline), neither of which has any news of value. MSNBC and CNBC are both garbage, in particular James Cramer's “Mad Money” on CNBC. I thought Janelle was cutting it quite a bit of slack when she called it intellectually offensive.

There is real news going on today, there are conflicting reports on whether or not the Hamas government has acknowledged the state of Israel. I heard a little bit on NPR driving home, and I see it on Google News . . . I just wish I could see it on television. Twenty-four hour news channels are a lie, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. There is no news right now on television, and I am deeply saddened by it.
