I agree with your husband.

If I watch any TV, it will be old sit comedy or old movies.

Right now , I'm watching on TCM Callaway Went That Away, starring Fred MacMurray, Dorthory McQuire and Howard Keel.

It's light-hearted. I need the silliness.

Hi, Bev.

"I woke up to that nutcase ranting on the news. My husband is furious that they are airing it, because he thinks this will inspire other nutcases to make videos and then shoot people, just so they can be famous."

Morning, dragging your comment from the other thread.....

IIRC, the manifesto of the Unibomber was eventually published by the New York Times, however there was far more consternation about whether or not it should be printed for that reason. But in THAT case, the perp hadn't been caught yet, so there was potential value for LE.

In this case you have a network with ratings in the tank, throw the entire content on broadcast airwaves immediately, with hardly any thought at all. It scares me that CHO knew exactly how to play the media, and knew what they would do.

This is descipable, and I note that Shep and the Fox crew are already making excuses for themselves.

I hate the media! (That was for you, dear kayak)
