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.
90% of the shows on them are crap. And when they get a good show they run it to death.
There is ONE good reason for continuing to watch the network news---it's the quickest way to find out what the "propaganda cause du jour" is. It's also good for a laugh.
Local news is still "pretty OK", as long as you stick to "breaking news" stories.
