Please don't confuse the on-air person with the actual efforts of an entire news staff. Anderson doesn't travel alone...Geraldo doesn't travel alone...even if that's the picture they want to present. I have never known a breaking news team to be "lethargic."
Again...I am making a clear distinction about breaking news.
Last night, I went to bed at 11pm, telling my wife that I had not had 6 solid hours of sleep in a week.
Each night, I was awoke by different things...dogs needed to go out...wife having a bad dream and needed to share it with me...cell phone ringing (hers)(which as the man, she being scared someone was in a car wreck, only to find it was a wrong number(just got the cells a month ago))...the alarm went off because instead of setting the alarm 4 hours later, she set the TIME four hours later.
Well, I explained that I did not want to be woke up for any reason that did not involve saving my life.
At 3am, she woke me from my dream of being fed skinless grapes by Anne Coulter to tell me that one survived.
In a half-sleep state I said, "You could have waited until morning to tell me." She replied that there was no need to be angry.
