Now is the time for Fox to launch a newscast on its affiliates at 6:30ET. I have a feeling they would clean up...

Dinosaurs indeed. Can't remember the last time I watched network or local news on TV. Info can be gathered so much faster and more reliably on the web. When a breaking news event nationally occurs now, I just log-in to FR. Can't be beat.

Seniors are about the only demographic still dedicated to the evening news broadcasts. Like my father, eighty-eight years young.
We got him a computer and even got him to go to training, but he says he couldn't get the hang of 'point-and-click' and never even checked his e-mail or surfed the web. So for him, it's still ABCBSNBC.....

The American public has found that limiting viewership of network news has the benefit of raising IQ's across the country. Washington DC being the notable exception.

I identify three factors:
(1) Widespread availability of news content from other sources.
(2) Decades of declining quality in reportage.
(3) People don't get home from work at 5:15 anymore. Most people commute from the suburbs and would rather allocate their time at home to other pursuits than news they already read online during lunch.

I wonder if the decline could be traced to fact that, women have taken over the TV media, it is TV for women, about women, operated by women....I, as a male, can not stand to have some pretty 30 year old, with a painted face, dictate the news to me.....

The elite owners of ABCNNBCBS and publishers of the major dinosaur fishwraps are the modern day, Norman Bates. They are trying to keep the corpses alive by refusing to admit that they are dead and to bury them.
