AMEN. News reports SHOULD be valuable, but this has become so questionable that it hurts. Maybe it is just myself growing old, but I now try to avoid television news reporting, especially from the major networks. Their goal, more and more, seems to be "excitement" and "look good for sponsors" rather than even, non-bias reporting.
