TV/Cable news is a dying media. Like all old technologies, especially for public use, it has become a concentrated swamp of crony-capitalists, and monopolists, playing off complex government rules and political interests.
It is under threat from the upstart - the internet. In terms of content, TV/Cable news can’t compete. It covers stories for 1 minute, maybe 2 or 3 minutes maximum if the story is very important. What sort of content can be conveyed in that short time? Very little - only slogans. It must also intersperse many commercials. its format can not change. Its operation is very expensive. Thus, it has become a controlled, political, monopolist swamp.
The internet, podcasts, live-streaming, or whatever, has NONE of those limitations. Information (news) can come from anyone, anywhere. Its searchable. Its unlimited in format or length. Its basically free.
I’ve simply given up on TV news. Its a joke.
Talk radio rules. 3 hours. No visuals
