No news isn't really good news

Well, it’s pretty pathetic when you watch ABC World News at 5:30, and then have to watch BBC News at 10:30 on AETN, just so you can see what’s been left out, or been glossed over.

I’m not singling out ABC, though they have the hubris to still have “World” in their title, even though they give the rest of the world short shrift. The other networks are just as bad.

Too bad we don’t have some sort of version of BBC News for local news!

More news, less inane giggling!
