I thought this was interesting because Skeptic usually leans to the liberal side of public issues. The article is long but well worth reading. The last line of the excerpt summarizes the article's case: Broadcast journalism is inherently flawed and a menace to rational discourse and the democratic process.

Oh, they are talking about ‘journalists’.
I thought they said ‘urinalists’.
Never mind.

That is one of the best descriptions of the overall crap that is journalism I have ever read.
Long but worthwhile.
