News readers: I don't want to hear your bias on anything. I don't care if you want the oil spill |
|
to stop. I don't care if you want more people to have jobs. I don't care if you are happy the stock market is rallying. I don't care if you are thankful that people lived through a disaster.
Once we can teach monkeys to read and speak we won't need you, until then please keep your damn opinions and biases to yourself. Just tell us what has happened.
And also, please stop repeating your name every five minutes, no one cares that you even have a name.

1. And above all, please relegate the tabloid news |
|
about the sexual indiscretions of sports and film stars to the appropriate tabloids. It's not news. We know a slight majority of men and almost half of women fool around on the side. It's just not news when one of them does.
Now family values nanny stater politicians are something else. If they're caught in diapers with a high priced hooker and a snootful of cocaine, that is news. Hypocrisy among our oppressors is always news.
Get the difference?

I totally agree with your OP and that has never happened before. I read it three times as I was sure I had to be missing something but, nope, it is clear, succinct and right on point.
I can't believe I am doing this but....

5. And quit thanking every co worker.... |
|
that does a story and high fiving them because they did such a wonderful job and they are so great. They get paid a big salary to do that wonderful job. Quit filling time with your lauds to them.

7. Most reporters do not get paid big salaries. |
|
The anchors, do, but the reporters get bupkus. That might explain why news sucks now: the face gets the money, the worker gets an average of $25,000 a year.

9. Chimpanzees doing the news, that would make a GREAT video! |

I would love to see a chimpanzee version of Hannity, BOR, or Morning Joe!
edit - Oooh, wait! Can someone teach a chimp to cry and do Glenn Beck?
