Even worse for those of us who have, thank you.

There are no good news channels in the US.
Fox rises to the top of that cesspool, but CNN and MSN are not far below.

The Daily Show is the only reliable TV news out there, sad to say.

Hell dude since the news scares and upsets you so it's simple. Don't watch,
don't read a paper, and you can go on in utopia pretending "all is well".
What the could be easier?

You miss my point, it's not the news - I read two papers a day - it's
the quality of the reporting.

No you miss it. You don't like hearing things that you don't want to be
true, so you blame the messenger for ruining your day. Just don't watch, or
read, and all will be fine in Kurt world.

If you read two papers a day, why do you still feel
the need to have the talking heads read it to you?
Is there some news that the papers don't cover?

Odd thing about the news. It happens whether we
are aware of it or not.

Wow, 2 papers a day? Is that each section or just the news section?

I have known several people over the years like that. Read several papers,
then watch one news cast after another. It's normally they don't want to
hear what's going on, so they are hoping SOMEONE, ANYONE will tell them what
they want to hear. Seldom works, but what the hell, keeps all those people
in work I guess. <G>

I don't know if that's Kurt's reasons. I just personally
wouldn't want to spend that much time reading/viewing
what is surely redundant and essentially useless news.
Some people were killed in Iraq. Some S American leader
said bush is a poodle. Some senator is calling for a
full scale investigation into someone from the
opposing party. Is there something more that I would
get by spending several hours daily reading another
paper or allowing the talking heads into my boob tube?
Is there some reason why I need to know that stuff at all?
Surely the world will go on without me being aware of
each of those shattering events.

I scan the news from Reuters via the web. I haven't done
that yet this morning. And even if I don't scan it till
three days from now, some people will have died in Iraq,
some S American guy will call bush a poodle and some
senator will call for an investigation.

The news doesn't validate my right/left, conserve/lib
cubbyhole. I think perhaps THAT is a big reason some
people get caught up in worrying about whether or not
any particular news source is "fair and balanced".

Yep! if the "news" does not tell them what they want to hear, it's a
conspiracy. <G>
