You know, it occurs to me that the networks have finally hit maximum boredom level even for me, and I am a political junky of over 40 years standing.

Otherwise, why would we all be discussing the merits of various cooks on the Food Network?

OK...I will try to keep quiet until I can report some actual news. I am monitoring Fox now.

I've basically stopped watching the news. It isn't really even "news" anymore.

You know where I've started hearing the most in-depth and balanced newscasts? On the Chinese English service short-wave radio. They give you dozens of stories from the US and around the world, and they're really quite balanced in the presentation.
