Wow, that is just insane.

There is no “minimization of the news” according to you, and it is men who drive this celebrity culture, and newspapers stopped calling the women’s section the women’s section because men like it so much, not because of feminist complaints in the early 1970s

To top it all off, you claim that TV news has not gone downhill and been feminized since the 1950s and early 1960s.

That is all too idiotic to comprehend.

I never said anything about “minimization of the news”, and I said that it’s PEOPLE that drive celebrity culture with equal participation by men and women. At least you got the 3rd point kind of right, really the move was them realizing there’s no reason to label a section “half of you don’t want to read this”, even more so when it turns out that a good chunk of that half WERE reading it.

And I never said TV news hasn’t gone downhill. I said it started off worthless. Though it’s definitely found ways to be worse. Not from feminization, from pointless confrontation. TV news these days is all about yelling. of course so are you, so it’s surprising that you don’t like it.

The only idiotic thing here is how much effort you put into ignoring the facts that have already proven you hideously wrong in every way.
